description BackgroundStroke was a major global public health challenge, and its prognosis was remarkably associated with inflammation levels and nutritional status. The advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) was a comprehensive indicator that combined inflammation and nutritional status. Currently, the relationship between ALI and the prognosis of stroke patients was not yet known. The purpose of the current study was to estimate their relationship.MethodsCohort data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999–2018 were collected. The association between ALI and all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in stroke patients was estimated using a multivariable adjusted Cox model. Their non-linear relationship was analyzed by restricted cubic spline analysis. Sensitivity analysis was constructed through stratified analysis and interaction analysis.Results1,440 stroke patients were included in this study. An elevated ALI was significantly related to a reduced risk of all-cause mortality in stroke patients but not related to CVD mortality. A reverse J-shaped non-linear association between ALI and all-cause mortality in stroke patients, with an inflection point at 83.76 (the lowest of the mortality risk). On the left side of the inflection point, for each 10 U increase in ALI, there was a 16% reduction in the risk of all-cause mortality. However, on the right side, the risk increased by 6%. There was no remarkable interaction between stratified variables and ALI.ConclusionThis was the first study on the relationship between ALI and all-cause and CVD mortality in stroke patients. Elevated ALI was closely associated with a reduced risk of all-cause mortality. A reverse J-shaped non-linear relationship existed between the two, with an inflection point at 83.76. These findings implied that controlling the ALI of stroke patients within an appropriate range was crucial for their prognosis (such as weight management, albumin supplementation, anti-inflammatory treatment). The dynamic variation in ALI was also advantageous for clinicians in establishing personalized ALI criteria to maximize the long-term survival of stroke patients.
