Effect of computed tomography vs. computed tomography perfusion on mechanical thrombectomy outcomes within 6 hours.

Objectives: It is unclear which selection strategy, plain CT vs. CT perfusion (CTP), is more powerful in predicting outcome after mechanical thrombectomy (MT). We aimed to compare the effect of plain CT and CTP in predicting outcome after MT within 6 h.

Association of Atrial Fibrillation with Remote Intracerebral Hemorrhage After Intravenous Thrombolysis: Results from a Multicenter Study in China.

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the association between atrial fibrillation (AF), particularly newly diagnosed AF, and remote intracerebral hemorrhage (rICH) in patients with ischemic stroke who were treated with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT).

Methods: This observational study was conducted on patients with ischemic stroke who received IVT with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator. The data were taken from a multicenter prospective registry of a Chinese population.
