Tenecteplase Versus Alteplase for First‐Pass Reperfusion in Basilar Artery Occlusion Stroke Thrombectomy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The first‐pass effect (FPE), defined as excellent reperfusion after a single attempt, is associated with improved outcomes in large vessel occlusion stroke. We evaluated whether intravenous tenecteplase (TNK) compared with alteplase (TPA) increases the likelihood of FPE in basilar artery occlusion (BAO).

OCT‐Guided Distal Left Main Bifurcation PCI: Mid‐Term Outcomes From a Multicenter South‐Asian Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Optical coherence tomography (OCT)‐guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) enhances treatment of complex coronary artery lesions, including left main (LM) disease, by enabling lesion morphology assessment and stent optimization, thereby reducing major adverse cardiac events (MACE).

Risk factors of hemorrhagic transformation after intravenous thrombolysis with rt-PA in acute cerebral infarction

QJM : monthly journal of the Association of Physicians, 2019
BACKGROUND Intravenous thrombolysis is considered to be the standard reperfusion therapy for acute ischemic stroke, but its application is limited by high risk of hemorrhagic transformation (HT) after thrombolysis. AIM This study aimed to identify risk

Hemolysis Detected Following the Preparation and Collection of Blood in a Porcine Model Using a Syringe‐Based Aspiration Thrombectomy System for Autotransfusion

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Autologous transfusion of filtered, unwashed blood is a technique to mitigate the effects of blood loss during mechanical thrombectomy, but the degree of hemolysis resulting from this approach and guidance for blood return in this setting is not well understood.

Higher Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Is Associated With Worse Outcomes After Intravenous Thrombolysis in Acute Ischaemic Stroke

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
Objective: The platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) is a new marker of atherosclerotic inflammation and has been identified as a predictive factor in cardiovascular diseases, but its significance in patients with acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) who have ...

Real‐World Edoxaban Concentrations in Older Patients Receiving Reduced‐Dose Regimens

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Real‐world edoxaban concentrations in older patients receiving reduced‐dose regimens. Low trough concentrations (< 12 ng/mL) were associated with an increased risk of thromboembolism. Among patients meeting the ELDERCARE‐AF criteria, low drug levels were more frequent with the 15 mg regimen than with the 30 mg regimen.
