Assessing the effectiveness of primary angioplasty compared with thrombolysis and its relationship to time delay: a Bayesian evidence synthesis [PDF]
Background: Meta-analyses of trials have shown greater benefits from angioplasty than thrombolysis after an acute myocardial infarction, but the time delay in initiating angioplasty needs to be considered.

Time cost of a nonclosing intravenous thrombolysis service for acute ischemic stroke
Background/Purpose: Intravenous thrombolysis for ischemic stroke saves societal costs. The aim of this study was to investigate the cost burden that hospitals may shoulder.

Revascularization in acute intracranial large vessels occlusion: direct or bridging thrombectomy?
Guidelines for the early management of acute ischemic stroke recommend intravenous thrombolysis followed by endovascular treatment as the first choice for the treatment of stroke with large vessel occlusion within 4.5 h of symptom onset.

"Sudden Drop" in Blood Pressure is Associated With Recanalization After Thrombolysis. [PDF]
We aim to investigate whether the phenomenon of "sudden drop" in blood pressure (BP) within the first 2 hours is associated with vessel recanalization.We retrospectively examined clinical and imaging data from a consecutive series of patients with stroke

The association of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and lymphocyte-monocyte ratio with 3-month clinical outcome after mechanical thrombectomy following stroke [PDF]
Background and aim Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR) are associated with clinical outcomes in malignancy, cardiovascular disease and stroke.

Clinical characteristics of unknown symptom onset stroke patients with and without diffusion-weighted imaging and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery mismatch [PDF]
Background: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) mismatch was suggested to identify stroke patients with unknown time of symptom onset likely to be within the time window for thrombolysis. Aims: We aimed

Intravenous Thrombolysis in Posterior Circulation Stroke [PDF]
Background: Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) is a standard treatment for both anterior circulation ischemic stroke (ACIS) and posterior circulation ischemic stroke (PCIS). PCIS is a clinical syndrome associated with ischemia-related changes in the territory of the posterior circulation arteries.

Background and purpose: It is unclear whether endovascular thrombectomy alone compared with intravenous thrombolysis combination with endovascular thrombectomy can achieve similar neurological outcomes in patients with acute large vessel occlusion stroke.

Neuroimaging as a selection tool and endpoint in preclinical and clinical trials [PDF]
Standard imaging in acute stroke enables the exclusion of non-stroke structural CNS lesions and cerebral haemorrhage from clinical and pre-clinical ischaemic stroke trials. In this review, the potential benefit of imaging (e.g., angiography and penumbral
