Endovascular treatment with or without intravenous alteplase for acute ischaemic stroke due to basilar artery occlusion

Ximing Nie et al.

Summary: The study found that compared to direct EVT, EVT with IVT first was associated with better functional outcomes in patients with BAO within 24 hours of onset. The meta-analysis demonstrated similar favorable efficacy of IVT first followed by EVT in patients with BAO.

Bridging Thrombolysis versus Direct Mechanical Thrombectomy in Stroke Due to Basilar Artery Occlusion

Isabel Siow et al.

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) patients who received bridging intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) plus mechanical thrombectomy (MT) versus direct MT. The results showed that functional outcomes were similar in both groups. However, in patients with underlying large-artery atherosclerosis stroke mechanism, bridging IVT may potentially confer better functional outcomes.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy in stroke patients with acute basilar artery occlusion compared to best medical therapy. The study design is a prospective randomized controlled trial, with the primary outcome being the proportion of patients achieving mRS 0-3 at 90 days.

Tenets for the Proper Conduct and Use of Meta-Analyses: A Practical Guide for Neurosurgeons

Keng Siang Lee et al.

Summary: Neurosurgeons are overwhelmed with research publications, leading to an increased popularity of systematic reviews and meta-analyses. While well-executed meta-analyses can provide valuable insights for clinical practice, recent audits have found deficiencies in methodologic rigor and adherence to guidelines in neurosurgery research. These deficiencies can be addressed through better awareness and adherence to standards, but there are also inherent problems and unique constraints in the field that require unconventional techniques to overcome.

Summary: This study compared the effectiveness and safety of endovascular treatment (EVT) with best medical management (BMM) in strokes caused by acute basilar artery occlusion. The findings showed that EVT was associated with significantly better functional outcomes and survival compared to BMM.

L. C. M. Langezaal et al.

Summary: In a randomized trial involving 300 patients with basilar-artery stroke, endovascular thrombectomy was not significantly different from medical therapy with respect to a favorable functional outcome (modified Rankin scale score of 0 to 3) at 90 days, but a clinically significant benefit could not be excluded.
