    Risk of Distal Embolization in Large Vessel Occlusion Strokes Treated with Tenecteplase (Poster Hall) -  Mar 6, 2022 - Abstract #AAN2022AAN_2657;    
    The exclusion of tandem and/or ICA occlusions due to small sample size was a significant limitation of the study that affects generalizability to the strokes secondary to LVO. The trend towards statistical significance in higher distal embolization rates in subjects receiving TNK warrants larger, prospective studies to validate results.

    Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke in Patients with versus without Pre-morbid Disability: A Meta-analysis ([VIRTUAL]) -  Mar 6, 2022 - Abstract #AAN2022AAN_2091;    
    However, discussions regarding thrombolysis in this group should acknowledge their much higher mortality and potentially higher sICH risk, although it is unknown if this can be attributed to treatment. High-quality data comparing treated versus untreated patients with pre-morbid disability are needed to clarify this issue.

    Tenecteplase is Safe and Efficacious in Telestroke Patients with Confirmed Large Vessel Occlusions () -  Mar 6, 2022 - Abstract #AAN2022AAN_1625;    
    High-quality data comparing treated versus untreated patients with pre-morbid disability are needed to clarify this issue. Telestroke patients with confirmed LVO and treated with tenecteplase were found to have better 90 day outcomes compared to patients treated with alteplase, without increased complication rates.

    Functional Status at 30 and 90 Days After Mild Ischemic Stroke () -  Mar 6, 2022 - Abstract #AAN2022AAN_1555;    
    Telestroke patients with confirmed LVO and treated with tenecteplase were found to have better 90 day outcomes compared to patients treated with alteplase, without increased complication rates. A quarter of mild ischemic stroke participants exhibited functional changes between 30-90 days, suggesting that the 30-day outcome may insufficiently represent long-term recovery in mild stroke and longer follow-up may be clinically necessary.

    Journal:  Association of Recent Use of Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants With Intracranial Hemorrhage Among Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke Treated With Alteplase. (Pubmed Central) -  Mar 3, 2022   
    Of the secondary functional outcomes, 4 of 7 showed significant differences in favor of the NOAC group after adjustment, including the proportion of patients discharged home (45.9% vs 53.6% for patients not taking anticoagulants; adjusted OR, 1.17 [95% CI, 1.06 to 1.29]; adjusted RD, 3.84% [95% CI, 1.46% to 6.22%]). Among patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous alteplase, use of NOACs within the preceding 7 days, compared with no use of anticoagulants, was not associated with a significantly increased risk of intracranial hemorrhage.

    It may also indicate that it is better to provide IV alteplase before EVT, rather than EVT alone according to patient-reported anxiety/depression. Future research should consider not only the motor function impairments but also the patient-reported mental problems as measures of treatment efficacy in patients with stroke (DIRECT-MT ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03469206).

    Journal:  Effectiveness and Predictors of Poor Prognosis Following Intravenous Thrombolysis in Patients with Wake-Up Ischemic Stroke Guided by Rapid MRI. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 26, 2022   
    Our aim was to investigate the effectiveness and predictors of poor prognosis in WUIS patients who received alteplase thrombolysis under the guidance of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)-T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) mismatch...The DWI-T2WI sequence is an effective method to guide intravenous thrombolytic therapy for WUIS. Baseline NIHSS score and atrial fibrillation were identified as independent predictors of poor prognosis following thrombolysis in WUIS patients.

    Biomarker, Journal:  Early neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio is a prognostic marker in acute minor stroke or transient ischemic attack. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 23, 2022   
    Intravenous injection of alteplase is recommended for patients with minor disabling and not non-disabling ischemic stroke symptoms within 4.5 h of ischemic stroke symptom onset...Early neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio is associated with short-term unfavorable functional outcome in patients with acute minor stroke or transient ischemic attack. Early neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio is beneficial for clinicians to distinguish minor disabling ischemic stroke at an early stage.

    Secondary outcomes include symptomatic ICH, NIHSS scores at 24 hours and 5-7 days, and mRS score at 30 days.ResultsFirst patient was included August 10th, 2019. Currently, 134 patients are included.ConclusionsWe hypothesize that dual thrombolytic therapy with a bolus alteplase and m-pro-urokinase will reduce the occurrence of ICH in patients with ischemic stroke comparedwith patients treated with alteplase alone.

    For patients with STEMI, coronary catheterization and PCI within 2 hours of presentation reduces mortality, with fibrinolytic therapy reserved for patients without access to immediate PCI. For high-risk patients with NSTE-ACS without contraindications, prompt invasive coronary angiography followed by percutaneous or surgical revascularization is associated with lower rates of death.

    SBEM is a rare complication of hepatic hydrothorax whose exact mechanism is yet to be investigated as lung parenchyma is not involved in the infective process. Given the rarity of incidence, SBEM should also be considered in patients with hepatic hydrothorax to avoid delay in diagnosis and further management.

Therefore, he received combination chemotherapy, with rapid clinical and biochemical improvement.

    There were no major bleeding events after thethrombolysis.ConclusionOur findings suggest that for patients with intermediate-low risk but with signs of clinicaldeterioration, giving rescue doses of alteplase may address the PE and significantly improvethe patient’s clinical status. Administration of half dose thrombolysis may be beneficial forpatients with intermediate-high risk PE but with high-risk features such as massivepulmonary embolism.

    At present, the best studied indication for intrapleural tPA/DNase is in patients with an infected pleural space. Our case demonstrates the broader role that intrapleural tPA/DNase may have in complex exudative effusions, especially of inflammatory/autoimmune etiology, and the need for future studies to more definitely explore this utility.

    Anomaly of the IVC is a rare example of a prevalent congenital condition that predisposes to DVT and even to prenatal/neonatal renal thrombosis with consecutive kidney atrophy. We suggest that children with an unprovoked lower extremity DVT undergo further imaging to evaluate for coexisting IVC and renal abnormalities.

    CDT included mechanical thrombus fragmentation and the local application of adjuvant thrombolytic therapy through the pigtail catheter - alteplase administered as 2.5 mg bolus in each main branch of the pulmonary artery plus adjuvant 25 mg for 12 h in the more severely affected branch of the pulmonary artery...CDT by using the cubital approach is a simple, safe, and feasible treatment option for PE. This approach was associated with significant improvement in hemodynamic parameters without fatal outcomes or major periprocedural complications.
