P83 The relationship of functional outcome after mechanical thrombectomy and serum glucose is partially mediated by edema formation

ConclusionEdema formation explains 15% of the total adverse effects of high blood glucose levels. Major pathways might include other direct effects of high blood glucose, such as altered vessel wall and thrombus characteristics and higher thrombogenicity of the cerebral blood flow.ReferencesThorén, M., et al.
