Oedema reduction mediates thrombectomy benefit in large core stroke: secondary analysis of the TENSION trial
A selected CT-based secondary analysis of TENSION links EVT with less 24-hour net water uptake and estimates an oedema-mediated pathway to 90-day outcome, but the mediation is hypothesis-generating.
Defining the Therapeutic Ceiling of Endovascular Thrombectomy in Large-Core Stroke — Beyond the Limits of ASPECTS
Quantitative infarct volumetry — not NCCT-ASPECTS — sets the true ceiling for endovascular thrombectomy in large-core stroke: benefit holds up to a DWI core of roughly 110 mL, then collapses.
