Background and Purpose: To investigate the prevalence of malnutrition risk in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) at admission, the association between malnutrition risk and long-term outcomes, and whether the predictive ability would be improved after adding to previous prognostic models for poor outcomes. Methods: Based on the Third China National Stroke Registry data from August 2015 to March 2018, we evaluated malnutrition risk using objective scores, including the controlling nutritional status score, geriatric nutritional risk index, and prognostic nutritional index. The primary outcome was death or major disability (modified Rankin Scale score ≥3) at 1 year after stroke onset. We calculated the crude prevalence of malnutrition risk and investigated the association between malnutrition risk and clinical outcomes. Prognostic performance of 3 objective malnutrition scores for poor outcomes was assessed. Results: Moderate to severe malnutrition risk was identified in 5.89%, 5.30%, and 1.95% of the Third China National Stroke Registry AIS patients according to the controlling nutritional status score, geriatric nutritional risk index, and prognostic nutritional index, respectively. At 1-year follow-up, 1143 participants (13.5%) experienced death or major disability. After adjustment for traditional risk factors, moderate to severe malnutrition risk was associated with high risk of composite events (odds ratio, 2.25 [95% CI, 1.75–2.90], for controlling nutritional status score; odds ratio, 2.10 [95% CI, 1.63–2.69], for geriatric nutritional risk index; odds ratio, 3.36 [95% CI, 2.33–4.84], for prognostic nutritional index; allP &lt;0.01). Addition of the 3 malnutrition scores to different predicted scales (iScore and Acute Stroke Registry and Analysis of Lausanne) improved predictive ability for long-term poor outcomes validated by the integrated discrimination index (allP &lt;0.05).Conclusions: The prevalence of moderate or severe malnutrition risk in Chinese patients with AIS ranged from 1.95% to 5.89%. Malnutrition risk in patients with AIS was associated with increased risk of long-term death and major disability. Our study provides evidence supporting the prognostic significance of objective malnutrition scores after AIS.
