Abstract WP6: Associations between computed tomography biomarkers of cerebral small vessel disease and early outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke

Stroke Journal

Background and Purpose:Whether imaging markers of cerebral small vessel disease on computed tomography (CT-CSVD) relates to early clinical outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke remains not well understood.

Predictors of Good Functional Outcomes in Posterior Circulation Stroke After Mechanical Thrombectomy With Stent Retrievers: An Individual Patient?Data Pooled Analysis From the TRACK and NASA Registries

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Patients with mRS score 0–2 were less likely to have hypertension (61.4% P = 0.016), and diabetes (18.2% P < 0.001) and more likelihood of achieving Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 3 (79.5% versus 83.3%;P P = 0.01), hyperlipidemia (38.6% versus 62.1%;P versus 36.4%;P P = 0.040). versus 42.2%;P P < 0.001).

Abstract 192: Throwing The Kitchen Sink At Tandem Occlusions: A Safety Analysis

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionThe risk of tandem occlusion treatment in the setting of intravenous thrombolysis is unclear. Patients who received thrombolysis and subsequently underwent endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke between 2012 and 2022 were included. vs 40%, p=0.03) and lower rate of atrial fibrillation (12.1% vs 26.6%, p=0.01).

Abstract TP301: Prevalence and In-Hospital Characteristics of Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke and CADASIL

Stroke Journal

CADASIL patients had lower rates of hypertension, diabetes, and coronary artery disease (55.0% There was no difference in the rate of administration of IV thrombolysis (5.0% They received IV thrombolysis at an equal rate but EVT at a lower rate, likely due to the small vessel pathology of CADASIL. vs 10.6%, p=0.004).
