The benefit of favorable venous outflow profiles is mediated through the reduced risk of intracranial hemorrhage in acute ischemic stroke patients undergoing endovascular treatment

Favorable venous outflow (VO) has been recognized as an independent predictor of excellent clinical outcomes in acute ischemic stroke caused by anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) patients who received endovascular treatment (EVT). However, the reasons why VO affects clinical outcomes have not been fully explained. In this study, we aimed to identify the potential mediators of VO affecting prognosis.
