Importance: Persisting or new thrombi in the distal arteries and the microcirculation have been reported to limit the benefits of successful endovascular thrombectomy for patients with acute ischemic stroke. It remains uncertain whether intra-arterial thrombolysis by urokinase following near-complete to complete reperfusion by thrombectomy improves outcomes among patients with ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion.
Objective: To assess the efficacy and adverse events of intra-arterial urokinase after near-complete to complete reperfusion by thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion.

Background: Intra-arterial prourokinase has been shown to be a promising thrombolytic agent in patients with acute ischaemic stroke. Given the global shortage of thrombolytics, we aimed to assess the non-inferiority of intravenous recombinant human prourokinase compared with alteplase in patients with acute ischaemic stroke who were ineligible for or who refused endovascular thrombectomy.
Methods: PROST-2 was a phase 3, open-label, non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial conducted at 61 hospitals in China.

Background: Vascular embolism is a severe complication following hyaluronic acid (HA) filler injections, with hyaluronidase injection being the most effective treatment. The nasal region, including the nose and nasolabial fold, is the most common site of vascular embolism after facial HA injections. Currently, there is insufficient clinical evidence regarding the benefits of facial artery thrombolysis.

Post-liver transplant (LT) hepatic artery vasospasm is a vascular complication that is not well recognized and its incidence is not known. As a possible sequela to vasospasm, hepatic artery thrombosis is the second major cause of allograft failure after primary nonfunction and its reported incidence is 2.9% in adults and 8.

Purpose: Intravenous and intra-arterial thrombolytic strategies have been used to treat central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO); however, previous meta-analyses evaluated the efficacy of these two thrombolytic strategies separately but did not compare them. This network meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the comparative efficacy and safety of different thrombolytic methods for treating CRAO.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfangdata to identify relevant studies published before 1 January 2023.
