Acute ischaemic stroke prediction from physiological time series patterns.

Background: Stroke is one of the major diseases with human mortality. Recent clinical research has indicated that early changes in common physiological variables represent a potential therapeutic target, thus the manipulation of these variables may eventually yield an effective way to optimise stroke recovery.

Aims: We examined correlations between physiological parameters of patients during the first 48 hours after a stroke, and their stroke outcomes after three months.
