An Overview of Meta-Analyses of Endovascular Bridging Therapies for Acute Ischemic Stroke.

Conclusions: In conclusion, our analysis supports that EBT, regardless of format (e.g., ET or IAT), is superior to the best medical therapy alone (e.g., IVT) in terms of mRS score in patients with AIS. In addition, the safety of EBT is similar to IVT.
