The role for infarct volume as a surrogate measure of functional outcome following ischemic stroke.

While mNSS failed to correlate with striatal and cortical infarct volume in the acute period, both inclined plane and grip strength indicated a strong trend towards correlation with cortical (ρ = 0.4379, P = 0.0535; ρ = −0.4081, P = 0.0663) and total (ρ = 0.4230, P = 0.0631; ρ = −0.4205, P = 0.0577) infarct volumes but not striatal infarcts ( Table 1 ).
