Fig. 2

Adjusted dose-response associations between serum homocysteine (µmol/L) levels and the risk of HT (a) and PH (b). Serum homocysteine level was coded using a restricted cubic spline with four knots (at the 5th, 35th, 65th, and 95th percentiles of homocysteine). Solid lines stand for adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and dashed lines stand for their 95% confidence intervals. ORs were adjusted for sex, age, NIHSS on admission, atrial fibrillation, TOAST classification of stroke etiology, antiplatelet, interval time from admission to blood sampling, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, current smoking, blood creatine. Reference value is 15.5 µmol/L for homocysteine
