BP measurements (moderate and severe hypertension, systolic pressure (SBP), diastolic pressure (DBP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) levels) and biochemical indicators (uric acid, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), C-reactive protein and WBC) were higher at the onset of RPLS than post-onset of RPLS (P<0.001), whereas normal BP and serum albumin levels were lower (P<0.001).
In univariate analyses, higher age (p = 0.04), higher levels of C-reactive protein (p < 0.001), etiology of PRES (sepsis and chemotherapy; p = 0.02), altered coagulation (p = 0.002), altered mental state at onset (p = 0.03), and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH; p = 0.01) were related to in-hospital death.
