M2 segment thrombectomy is not associated with increased complication risk compared to M1 segment: A meta-analysis of recent literature
Numerous trials report safety and efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for infarcts involving the M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery (MCA; extending from the terminal bifurcation of the internal carotid artery proximally to the main bifurcation distally) in comparison to intravenous thrombolytic therapy (e.g. alteplase) therapy alone.1 –5 The Highly Effective Reperfusion Using Multiple Endovascular Devices (HERMES) meta-analysis of these early studies reported a number needed to treat of 2.6 for MT to reduce the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) by 1 point.

Comparing adverse Events of tenecteplase and alteplase: A Real-World analysis of the FDA adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS)
CONCLUSION: This study identified and compared signals of ADRs associated with tenecteplase and alteplase, although tenecteplase is as effective as alteplase and has advantages such as ease of use and affordability, it cannot replace alteplase in the treatment of AIS until its safety profile is fully recognized. Additionally, previously unreported ocular ADRs and pneumonia were identified, providing valuable insights into the relationship between ADRs and the use of these thrombolytic drugs. These findings underscore the importance of continuous monitoring and effective detection of AEs to ultimately enhance the safety of ...
