Popis: BACKGROUND The impact of Total Bile Acids (TBA) level on clinical outcomes after acute Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) is still not understood. OBJECTIVE We investigated whether admission TBA level is associated with hematoma volume, stroke clinical severity, and 3-month outcomes in acute ICH patients. METHODS A total of 335 ICH patients were prospectively enrolled. Patients were divided into four groups, according to the quartiles of serum TBA level at the time of admission. Three-month outcomes were evaluated by interviews with patients or their family members. RESULTS The median hematoma volumes for the quartiles of TBA level (Q1 to Q4) were 12.0, 12.3, 10.0, and 6.7 mL (P
