Association between lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio and stroke-associated pneumonia: a retrospective cohort study
Our study suggests that the LMR is an independent predictor of SAP in patients with AIS, particularly when the LMR is less than 4. The LMR may serve as a promising biomarker for the early identification of patients with AIS at a high risk of SAP.
