Mechanical thrombectomy after intravenous alteplase versus alteplase alone after stroke (THRACE): a randomised controlled trial
Publication date: Available online 23 August 2016 Source:The Lancet Neurology Author(s): Serge Bracard, Xavier Ducrocq, Jean Louis Mas, Marc Soudant, Catherine Oppenheim, Thierry Moulin, Francis Guillemin Background Intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase alone cannot reperfuse most large-artery strokes. We aimed to determine whether mechanical thrombectomy in addition to intravenous thrombolysis improves clinical outcome in patients with acute ischaemic stroke. Methods THRACE is a randomised controlled trial done in 26 centres in France. Patients aged 18–80 years with acute ischaemic stroke and proximal cerebral artery...

Effects of alteplase on survival after ischaemic stroke (IST-3): 3 year follow-up of a randomised, controlled, open-label trial
We report the effect of intravenous alteplase on long-term survival after ischaemic stroke of participants in the Third International Stroke Trial (IST-3). Methods In IST-3, done at 156 hospitals in 12 countries (Australia, Europe, and the UK), participants (aged >18 years) were randomly assigned with a telephone voice-activated or web-based system in a 1:1 ratio to treatment with intravenous 0·9 mg/kg alteplase plus standard care or standard care alone within 6 h of ischaemic stroke. We followed up participants in the UK and Scandinavia (Sweden and Norway) for survival up to 3 years after randomisation using data...

Functional outcomes of pre-hospital thrombolysis in a mobile stroke treatment unit compared with conventional care: an observational registry study
This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02358772. Findings Between Feb 5, 2011, and March 5, 2015, 427 patients were treated within the STEMO vehicle and their data were entered into a pre-hospital registry. 505 patients received conventional care and their data were entered into an in-hospital thrombolysis registry. Of these, 305 patients in the STEMO group and 353 in the conventional care group met inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. 161 (53%) patients in the STEMO group versus 166 (47%) in the conventional care group had an mRS score of 1 or lower (p=0·14). Compared with conventio...

Effect of baseline Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score on safety and efficacy of intra-arterial treatment: a subgroup analysis of a randomised phase 3 trial (MR CLEAN)
We examined the effect of the baseline Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) on the safety and efficacy of intra-arterial treatment in a subgroup analysis of the Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke in the Netherlands (MR CLEAN). Methods MR CLEAN was a randomised, controlled, open-label, phase 3 trial of intra-arterial treatment in patients (aged ≥18 years from the Netherlands) with proximal arterial occlusion of the anterior circulation, given intra-arterial treatment within 6 h of stroke onset. The primary outcome was 90 day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) sco...

Neuroprotection in acute stroke: targeting excitotoxicity, oxidative and nitrosative stress, and inflammation
Publication date: Available online 11 May 2016 Source:The Lancet Neurology Author(s): Ángel Chamorro, Ulrich Dirnagl, Xabier Urra, Anna M Planas Treatments for acute ischaemic stroke continue to evolve after the superior value of endovascular thrombectomy was confirmed over systemic thrombolysis. Unfortunately, numerous neuroprotective drugs have failed to show benefit in the treatment of acute ischaemic stroke, making the search for new treatments imperative. Increased awareness of the relevance of rigorous preclinical testing, and appropriate selection of study participants, might overcome the barriers to progress...

Loci associated with ischaemic stroke and its subtypes (SiGN): a genome-wide association study
Publication date: Available online 19 December 2015 Source:The Lancet Neurology Author(s): NINDS Stroke Genetics Network (SiGN)International Stroke Genetics Consortium (ISGC) Background The discovery of disease-associated loci through genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is the leading genetic approach to the identification of novel biological pathways underlying diseases in humans. Until recently, GWAS in ischaemic stroke have been limited by small sample sizes and have yielded few loci associated with ischaemic stroke. We did a large-scale GWAS to identify additional susceptibility genes for stroke and its subtypes. ...
