Prospective Multicenter International Registry of Ultrasound-Facilitated Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis in Intermediate-High and High-Risk Pulmonary Embolism (KNOCOUT PE)

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

BACKGROUND:Prior clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of ultrasound-facilitated catheter-directed thrombolysis (USCDT) for the treatment of acute intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) using reduced thrombolytic doses and shorter infusion durations. All-cause mortality at 30 days was 1.0% (5/489).

Abstract TP190: Intracerebral Hemorrhage Laterality and Associations with Mood and Quality of Life Outcomes: A MISTIE III Substudy

Stroke Journal

We aimed to determine the relationship between the affected hemisphere (right or left) and differences in non-motor outcomes (pain, mood) in patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The association of ICH laterality with clinical outcomes was estimated using multiple linear regression models.

Abstract TP115: Differences in the Medical Management of Post-Stroke Sequelae Among Patients Treated with Mechanical Thrombectomy vs Intravenous Thrombolysis

Stroke Journal

Background:Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) as treatment for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has demonstrated superior functional outcomes compared to intravenous thrombolysis (IVT). Yet AIS survivors often experience a range of unstudied post-stroke complications which negatively affect patient reported outcomes.

Abstract HUP1: Drivers of Disparities in Stroke Outcomes by Neighborhood Socioeconomic Status: A Causal Mediation Analysis

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Identification of modifiable drivers of the disparity between neighborhood socioeconomic status (nSES) and stroke outcomes remains elusive. Table 1 displays the indirect effects mediated by each specific characteristic in our total and stratified samples.Discussion:Lower nSES portends worse stroke outcomes.

Abstract WP124: Three-year Follow-up Quantitative MRI And Recovery Assessment After Endovascular Treatment In Acute Ischemic Stroke

Stroke Journal

Previously, we have shown that long-term white matter microstructure damage, iron deposition and atrophy within/remote to the 24-hour stroke lesion could influence long term quality of life. Results:We included 24 patients with a 24-hour and long-term MRI protocol.
