| Abstract |
Conflicting results have been obtained by studies attempting to assess the risks of ischemic stroke in patients with burn injury, while the long-term risk of stroke in survivors of burn injury remains unexplored. We evaluated whether the risk of ischemic stroke in patients hospitalized with burn injury in Taiwan is higher when compared to the general population. The data from one million National Health Insurance (NHI) adult beneficiaries were evaluated from January 1, 2005 until December 31, 2012 to identify those who developed ischemic stroke. Each identified patient with burn injury was matched with one hundred unexposed patients based on a high-dimensional propensity score. Cox regression models were applied to compare the risks of the development of ischemic stroke in the matched cohorts. A total of 743,237 patients were enrolled. After matching, 1,763 burn injury patients and 176,300 unexposed patients were selected and compared. The adjusted hazard ratio of ischemic stroke was significantly increased in burn injury patients (1.84; 95 % CI, 1.43-2.36). A subgroup analysis based on patients who survived longer than 12 months in the matched cohort also revealed higher hazard ratio in the burn injury patients (1.54; 95 % CI, 1.11-2.13). The risk of ischemic stroke is significantly higher in patients hospitalized with burn injury than in the general population, and these risks may extend longer than expected. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 April 2016.
All research outputs
#15,366,818
of 22,860,626 outputs
Outputs from Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine
#1,020
of 1,259 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#180,803
of 301,058 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine
#48
of 57 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,860,626 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,259 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.2. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 301,058 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 57 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 7th percentile – i.e., 7% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
