Spline analyses. Data show the time between stroke and surgery and the risk of adverse outcomes. (A) Risk of 30-day major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), including acute myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, or cardiovascular death. (B) Risk of 30-day all-cause mortality. (C) Risk of 30-day nonfatal ischemic stroke. Time between stroke and surgery as a continuous variable were analyzed using a spline regression model adjusted for sex, age, and surgical category. Patients with 2 days between stroke and surgery were used as a reference for the spline analysis of the first 14 days and 353 days for the spline analysis of 0 to 5 yr.
