Imaging predictors of 4q12 amplified and RB1 mutated glioblastoma IDH-wildtype.

INTRODUCTION: Recent studies have identified that glioblastoma IDH-wildtype consists of different molecular subgroups with distinct prognoses. In order to accurately describe and classify gliomas, the Visually AcceSAble Rembrandt Images (VASARI) system was developed. The goal of this study was to evaluate the VASARI characteristics in molecular subgroups of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of glioblastoma IDH- wildtype with comprehensive next-generation sequencing and pre-operative and post-operative MRI was performed. VASARI characteristics and 205 genes were evaluated. Multiple comparison adjustment by the Bejamin-Hochberg false discovery rate (BH-FDR) was performed. A 1:3 propensity score match (PSM) with a Caliper of 0.2 was done. RESULTS: 178 patients with GBM IDH-WT met the inclusion criteria. 4q12 amplified patients (n = 20) were associated with cyst presence (30% vs. 12%, p = 0.042), decreased hemorrhage (35% vs. 62%, p = 0.028), and non-restricting/mixed (35%/60%) rather than restricting diffusion pattern (5%), meanwhile, 4q12 non-amplified patients had mostly restricting (47.4%) rather than a non-restricting/mixed diffusion pattern (28.4%/23.4%). This remained statistically significant after BH-FDR adjustment (p = 0.002). PSM by 4q12 amplification showed that diffusion characteristics continued to be significantly different. Among RB1-mutant patients, 96% had well-defined enhancing margins vs. 70.6% of RB1-WT (p = 0.018), however, this was not significant after BH-FDR or PSM. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with glioblastoma IDH-wildtype harboring 4q12 amplification rarely have restricting DWI patterns compared to their wildtype counterparts, in which this DWI pattern is present in ~ 50% of patients. This suggests that some phenotypic imaging characteristics can be identified among molecular subtypes of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma.

Rapid detection of mutations in CSF-cfTNA with the Genexus Integrated Sequencer.

PURPOSE: Genomic alterations are fundamental for molecular-guided therapy in patients with breast and lung cancer. However, the turn-around time of standard next-generation sequencing assays is a limiting factor in the timely delivery of genomic information for clinical decision-making. METHODS: In this study, we evaluated genomic alterations in 54 cerebrospinal fluid samples from 33 patients with metastatic lung cancer and metastatic breast cancer to the brain using the Oncomine Precision Assay on the Genexus sequencer. There were nine patients with samples collected at multiple time points. RESULTS: Cell-free total nucleic acids (cfTNA) were extracted from CSF (0.1-11.2 ng/µl). Median base coverage was 31,963× with cfDNA input ranging from 2 to 20 ng. Mutations were detected in 30/54 CSF samples. Nineteen (19/24) samples with no mutations detected had suboptimal DNA input (< 20 ng). The EGFR exon-19 deletion and PIK3CA mutations were detected in two patients with increasing mutant allele fraction over time, highlighting the potential of CSF-cfTNA analysis for monitoring patients. Moreover, the EGFR T790M mutation was detected in one patient with prior EGFR inhibitor treatment. Additionally, ESR1 D538G and ESR1::CCDC170 alterations, associated with endocrine therapy resistance, were detected in 2 mBC patients. The average TAT from cfTNA-to-results was < 24 h. CONCLUSION: In summary, our results indicate that CSF-cfTNA analysis with the Genexus-OPA can provide clinically relevant information in patients with brain metastases with short TAT.

Impacts of spaceflight experience on human brain structure.

Spaceflight induces widespread changes in human brain morphology. It is unclear if these brain changes differ with varying mission duration or spaceflight experience history (i.e., novice or experienced, number of prior missions, time between missions). Here we addressed this issue by quantifying regional voxelwise changes in brain gray matter volume, white matter microstructure, extracellular free water (FW) distribution, and ventricular volume from pre- to post-flight in a sample of 30 astronauts. We found that longer missions were associated with greater expansion of the right lateral and third ventricles, with the majority of expansion occurring during the first 6 months in space then appearing to taper off for longer missions. Longer inter-mission intervals were associated with greater expansion of the ventricles following flight; crew with less than 3 years of time to recover between successive flights showed little to no enlargement of the lateral and third ventricles. These findings demonstrate that ventricle expansion continues with spaceflight with increasing mission duration, and inter-mission intervals less than 3 years may not allow sufficient time for the ventricles to fully recover their compensatory capacity. These findings illustrate some potential plateaus in and boundaries of human brain changes with spaceflight.

The Cortico-Limbo-Thalamo-Cortical Circuits: An Update to the Original Papez Circuit of the Human Limbic System.

The Papez circuit, first proposed by James Papez in 1937, is a circuit believed to control memory and emotions, composed of the cingulate cortex, entorhinal cortex, parahippocampal gyrus, hippocampus, hypothalamus, and thalamus. Pursuant to James Papez, Paul Yakovlev and Paul MacLean incorporated the prefrontal/orbitofrontal cortex, septum, amygdalae, and anterior temporal lobes into the limbic system. Over the past few years, diffusion-weighted tractography techniques revealed additional limbic fiber connectivity, which incorporates multiple circuits to the already known complex limbic network. In the current review, we aimed to comprehensively summarize the anatomy of the limbic system and elaborate on the anatomical connectivity of the limbic circuits based on the published literature as an update to the original Papez circuit.

Introducing the "Temporal Thumb Sign" in Pediatric Patients With New-Onset Idiopathic Seizures With and Without Elevated Cerebrospinal Fluid Opening Pressure.

BACKGROUND: Temporal lobe changes, such as anterior temporal lobe meningoceles or encephaloceles, have been documented as possible epileptogenic foci in a subset of pediatric patients with seizures. In our study, we aim to analyze a different structural change in the temporal lobe, remodeling of the posterior temporal skull base by the inferior temporal gyrus called the "temporal thumb sign" (TTS), in pediatric patients presenting with new-onset seizures with or without elevated opening pressure (OP), patients presenting with confirmed diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) without seizure presentation, and healthy controls. METHODS: Magnetic resonance imaging scans of 163 pediatric patients were studied retrospectively for the presence of TTS. We analyzed the scans of 43 patients with elevated OP and confirmed IIH, 40 patients with elevated OP and new-onset idiopathic seizures, 40 patients with normal OP and new-onset idiopathic seizures, and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. RESULTS: The TTS was detected most frequently in patients with elevated OP and seizures at 72.5% compared with patients with IIH with no seizures and patients with normal OP and seizures (32.6% and 27.5%, respectively). The TTS had a frequency of 12.5% in the control group. The TTS had the highest combination of specificity and sensitivity (72.5% and 72.5%) in patients with seizures and elevated OP compared with patients with seizures and normal OP (P value < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest the Kamali "temporal thumb sign" is a novel imaging feature that may be used as a sensitive and specific imaging finding associated with seizures and elevated OP in the pediatric population.

Changes in working memory brain activity and task-based connectivity after long-duration spaceflight.

We studied the longitudinal effects of approximately 6 months of spaceflight on brain activity and task-based connectivity during a spatial working memory (SWM) task. We further investigated whether any brain changes correlated with changes in SWM performance from pre- to post-flight. Brain activity was measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging while astronauts (n = 15) performed a SWM task. Data were collected twice pre-flight and 4 times post-flight. No significant effects on SWM performance or brain activity were found due to spaceflight; however, significant pre- to post-flight changes in brain connectivity were evident. Superior occipital gyrus showed pre- to post-flight reductions in task-based connectivity with the rest of the brain. There was also decreased connectivity between the left middle occipital gyrus and the left parahippocampal gyrus, left cerebellum, and left lateral occipital cortex during SWM performance. These results may reflect increased visual network modularity with spaceflight. Further, increased visual and visuomotor connectivity were correlated with improved SWM performance from pre- to post-flight, while decreased visual and visual-frontal cortical connectivity were associated with poorer performance post-flight. These results suggest that while SWM performance remains consistent from pre- to post-flight, underlying changes in connectivity among supporting networks suggest both disruptive and compensatory alterations due to spaceflight.

The Role of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Values in Glioblastoma: Differentiating Tumor Progression Versus Treatment-Related Changes.

OBJECTIVE: Glioblastoma represents the most common primary brain malignancy with a median survival of 15 months. Follow-up examinations are crucial to establish the presence of tumor recurrence, as well as treatment-associated changes such as ischemic infarction and radiation effects. Even though magnetic resonance imaging is a valuable tool, a histopathological diagnosis is often required because of imaging overlap between tumor recurrence and treatment associated changes. We set out to measure the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of the lesions in magnetic resonance imaging scans of treated glioblastoma patients to investigate if ADC values could accurately differentiate between tumor progression, radiation-related changes, and ischemic infarctions. METHODS: We evaluated ADC values among 3 groups, patients with tumor progression, radiation necrosis, and ischemic infarctions. The regions of interest were placed in the areas of greatest hypointensity among solid lesions using the ADC maps, excluding areas with necrotic, cystic, or hemorrhagic changes. The ADC values of the contralateral normal appearing white matter were also measured as the reference value for each patient. The relative ADC (rADC) values were measured for all 3 groups. Comparison between lesions and normal white matter was evaluated by Wilcoxon signed test. RESULTS: A total of 157 patients were included in the study; 49 patients classified as tumor progression, 58 patients as radiation necrosis, and 50 patients as ischemic infarctions. The mean ± SD ADC value was 752.8 ± 132.5 for tumor progression, 479.0 ± 105.2 for radiation-related changes, and 250.1 ± 57.2 for ischemic infarctions. The mean ± SD rADC value was 1.07 ± 0.22 for tumor progression, 0.66 ± 0.14 for radiation necrosis, and 0.34 ± 0.08 for ischemic infarctions. The mean rADC values were significantly higher in tumor progression, compared with both radiation necrosis and ischemic changes ( P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrates that ADC values are a helpful tool to differentiate between tumor progression, radiation necrosis, and posttreatment ischemic changes.

IDH1 p.R132H ctDNA and D-2-hydroxyglutarate as CSF biomarkers in patients with IDH-mutant gliomas.

INTRODUCTION: We aimed to evaluate IDH1 p.R132H mutation and 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) as biomarkers for patients with IDH-mutant gliomas. METHODS: CSF was collected from patients with infiltrating glioma, and 2HG levels were measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. IDH1 p.R132H mutant allele frequency (MAF) in CSF-ctDNA was measured by digital droplet PCR (ddPCR). Tumor volume was measured from standard-of-care magnetic resonance images. RESULTS: The study included 48 patients, 6 with IDH-mutant and 42 with IDH-wildtype gliomas, and 57 samples, 9 from the patients with IDH-mutant and 48 from the patients with IDH-wildtype gliomas. ctDNA was detected in 7 of the 9 samples from patients with IDH-mutant glioma, and IDH1 p.R132H mutation was detected in 5 of the 7 samples. The MAF ranged from 0.3 to 39.95%. Total 2HG level, D-2HG level, and D/L-2HG ratio in CSF were significantly higher in patients with IDH-mutant gliomas than in patients with IDH-wildtype gliomas. D-2HG level and D/L-2HG ratio correlated with total tumor volume in patients with IDH-mutant gliomas but not in patients with IDH-wildtype gliomas. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that detection of IDH1 p.R132H mutation by ddPCR and increased D-2HG level in CSF may help identify IDH-mutant gliomas. Our results also suggest that D-2HG level and D/L-2HG ratio correlate with tumor volume in patients with IDH-mutant gliomas. Further prospective studies with larger cohorts are needed to validate these findings.

Longitudinal MRI-visible perivascular space (PVS) changes with long-duration spaceflight.

Humans are exposed to extreme environmental stressors during spaceflight and return with alterations in brain structure and shifts in intracranial fluids. To date, no studies have evaluated the effects of spaceflight on perivascular spaces (PVSs) within the brain, which are believed to facilitate fluid drainage and brain homeostasis. Here, we examined how the number and morphology of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-visible PVSs are affected by spaceflight, including prior spaceflight experience. Fifteen astronauts underwent six T1-weighted 3 T MRI scans, twice prior to launch and four times following their return to Earth after ~ 6-month missions to the International Space Station. White matter MRI-visible PVS number and morphology were calculated using an established, automated segmentation algorithm. We validated our automated segmentation algorithm by comparing algorithm PVS counts with those identified by two trained raters in 50 randomly selected slices from this cohort; the automated algorithm performed similarly to visual ratings (r(48) = 0.77, p < 0.001). In addition, we found high reliability for four of five PVS metrics across the two pre-flight time points and across the four control time points (ICC(3,k) > 0.50). Among the astronaut cohort, we found that novice astronauts showed an increase in total PVS volume from pre- to post-flight, whereas experienced crewmembers did not (p = 0.020), suggesting that experienced astronauts may exhibit holdover effects from prior spaceflight(s). Greater pre-flight PVS load was associated with more prior flight experience (r = 0.60-0.71), though these relationships did not reach statistical significance (p > 0.05). Pre- to post-flight changes in ventricular volume were not significantly associated with changes in PVS characteristics, and the presence of spaceflight associated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS) was not associated with PVS number or morphology. Together, these findings demonstrate that PVSs can be consistently identified on T1-weighted MRI scans, and that spaceflight is associated with PVS changes. Specifically, prior spaceflight experience may be an important factor in determining PVS characteristics.

Accuracy of CT Perfusion-Based Core Estimation of Follow-up Infarction: Effects of Time Since Last Known Well.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: To assess the accuracy of baseline CT perfusion (CTP) ischemic core estimates. METHODS: From SELECT (Optimizing Patient Selection for Endovascular Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke), a prospective multicenter cohort study of imaging selection, patients undergoing endovascular thrombectomy who achieved complete reperfusion (modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Ischemia score 3) and had follow-up diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) available were evaluated. Follow-up DWI lesions were coregistered to baseline CTP. The difference between baseline CTP core (relative cerebral blood flow [rCBF] <30%) volume and follow-up infarct volume was classified as overestimation (core ≥10 mL larger than infarct), adequate, or underestimation (core ≥25 mL smaller than infarct) and spatial overlap was evaluated. RESULTS: Of 101 included patients, median time from last known well (LKW) to imaging acquisition was 138 (82-244) minutes. The median baseline ischemic core estimate was 9 (0-31.9) mL and median follow-up infarct volume was 18.4 (5.3-68.7) mL. All 6/101 (6%) patients with overestimation of the subsequent infarct volume were imaged within 90 minutes of LKW and achieved rapid reperfusion (within 120 minutes of CTP). Using rCBF <20% threshold to estimate ischemic core in patients presenting within 90 minutes eliminated overestimation. Volumetric correlation between the ischemic core estimate and follow-up imaging improved as LKW time to imaging acquisition increased: Spearman ρ <90 minutes 0.33 (p = 0.049), 90-270 minutes 0.63 (p < 0.0001), >270 minutes 0.86 (p < 0.0001). Assessment of the spatial overlap between baseline CTP ischemic core lesion and follow-up infarct demonstrated that a median of 3.2 (0.0-9.0) mL of estimated core fell outside the subsequent infarct. These regions were predominantly in white matter. DISCUSSION: Significant overestimation of irreversibly injured ischemic core volume was rare, was only observed in patients who presented within 90 minutes of LKW and achieved reperfusion within 120 minutes of CTP acquisition, and occurred primarily in white matter. Use of a more conservative (rCBF <20%) threshold for estimating ischemic core in patients presenting within 90 minutes eliminated all significant overestimation cases.

CONCLUSION: A cutoff value of 6.0 mm for optic nerve sheath dilation may be used as a screening imaging marker to suspect elevated opening pressure with specificity of 88% in pediatric patients with new-onset idiopathic seizures.

Leveraging Spatial Information in Radiology Reports for Ischemic Stroke Phenotyping.

Classifying fine-grained ischemic stroke phenotypes relies on identifying important clinical information. Radiology reports provide relevant information with context to determine such phenotype information. We focus on stroke phenotypes with location-specific information: brain region affected, laterality, stroke stage, and lacunarity. We use an existing fine-grained spatial information extraction system-Rad-SpatialNet-to identify clinically important information and apply simple domain rules on the extracted information to classify phenotypes. The performance of our proposed approach is promising (recall of 89.62% for classifying brain region and 74.11% for classifying brain region, side, and stroke stage together). Our work demonstrates that an information extraction system based on a fine-grained schema can be utilized to determine complex phenotypes with the inclusion of simple domain rules. These phenotypes have the potential to facilitate stroke research focusing on post-stroke outcome and treatment planning based on the stroke location.

Evaluation of the Oncomine Pan-Cancer Cell-Free Assay for Analyzing Circulating Tumor DNA in the Cerebrospinal Fluid in Patients with Central Nervous System Malignancies.

Available tools to evaluate patients with central nervous system (CNS) tumors such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology, and brain biopsies, have significant limitations. MRI and CSF cytology have poor specificity and sensitivity, respectively, and brain biopsies are invasive. Circulating tumor DNA in CSF (CSF-ctDNA) could be used as a biomarker in patients with CNS tumors, but studies in this area are limited. We evaluated four CSF-ctDNA extraction methods and analyzed mutations in CSF-ctDNA with the Oncomine Pan-Cancer cell-free assay. CSF-ctDNA was extracted from 38 patients with primary or metastatic CNS tumors and 10 patients without CNS malignancy. Commercial ctDNA controls were used for assay evaluation. CSF-ctDNA yields ranged from 3.65 to 3120 ng. Mutations were detected in 39.5% of samples. TP53 was the most commonly mutated gene and copy number alterations were detected in CCND1, MYC, and ERBB2/HER2. Twenty-five percent of CSF-cytology-negative samples showed mutations in CSF-ctDNA. There was good concordance between mutations in CSF-ctDNA and matching tumors. The QIAamp Circulating Nucleic Acid Kit was the optimal method for extraction of CSF-ctDNA and the Oncomine cell-free DNA assay is suitable for detection of mutations in CSF-ctDNA. Analysis of CSF-ctDNA is more sensitive than CSF-cytology and has the potential to improve the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with CNS tumors.

Genomic alterations predictive of response to radiosurgery in recurrent IDH-WT glioblastoma.

INTRODUCTION: Despite aggressive treatment, glioblastoma invariably recurs. The optimal treatment for recurrent glioblastoma (rGBM) is not well defined. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for rGBM has demonstrated favorable outcomes for selected patients; however, its efficacy in molecular GBM subtypes is unknown. We sought to identify genetic alterations that predict response/outcomes from SRS in rGBM-IDH-wild-type (IDH-WT). METHODS: rGBM-IDH-WT patients undergoing SRS at first recurrence and tested by next-generation sequencing (NGS) were reviewed (2009-2018). Demographic, clinical, and molecular characteristics were evaluated. NGS interrogating 205-genes was performed. Primary outcome was survival from GK-SRS assessed by Kaplan-Meier method and multivariable Cox proportional-hazards. RESULTS: Sixty-three lesions (43-patients) were treated at 1st recurrence. Median age was 61-years. All patients were treated with resection and chemoradiotherapy. Median time from diagnosis to 1st recurrence was 8.7-months. Median cumulative volume was 2.895 cm3 and SRS median marginal dose was 18 Gy (median isodose-54%). Bevacizumab was administered in 81.4% patients. PFS from SRS was 12.9-months. Survival from SRS was 18.2-months. PTEN-mutant patients had a longer PFS (p = 0.049) and survival from SRS (p = 0.013) in multivariable analysis. Although no statistically significant PTEN-mutants patients had higher frequency of radiation necrosis (21.4% vs. 3.4%) and lower in-field recurrence (28.6% vs. 37.9%) compared to PTEN-WT patients. CONCLUSIONS: SRS is a safe and effective treatment option for selected rGBM-IDH-WT patients following first recurrence. rGBM-IDH-WT harboring PTEN-mutation have improved survival with salvage SRS compared to PTEN-WT patients. PTEN may be used as a molecular biomarker to identify a subset of rGBM patients who may benefit the most from SRS.

Atlanto-occipital distraction injuries in survivors: craniometrics and associated ligamentous, spinal cord, and blunt cerebrovascular injury.

PURPOSE: Newer classification systems for upper cervical spine trauma now include ligamentous injury in addition to fracture and dislocation patterns. Assessment of associated ligamentous injury, spinal cord injury (SCI), and blunt cerebrovascular injuries (BCVI) in patients with atlanto-occipital distraction injuries (AODI) are critical for management. We aim to determine the incidence of ligamentous injury, SCI, and BCVI in patients with AODI and assess how craniometrics perform in diagnosis of AODI. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed an IRB-approved retrospective analysis of 35 cases of diagnosed AODI over a period of 8 years. Imaging was analyzed by two experienced neuroradiologists for craniometric measurements, ligamentous injury, SCI, and BCVI. Craniometric measurements were compared to 35 age-matched controls with normal atlanto-occipital joint. RESULTS: Out of 35 patients diagnosed with AODI, 27 were adults and 8 belonged to pediatric age group. The mean age of presentation was 29.4 years with a male/female ratio of 22:13. The basion-dental interval (70.4%) and the combined condylar sum (74.1%) were the most sensitive craniometric measurements for diagnosis of AODI. Alar ligament (83%) and the tectorial membrane (89%) injuries were most commonly injured ligaments. Three adult patients sustained SCI and 10 patients had BCVI. Majority of BCVI involved the internal carotid artery followed by the vertebral artery. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of craniometric indices with assessment of ligamentous injuries provides higher diagnostic accuracy for AODI. Alar ligament and tectorial membrane injuries have high association with AODI. There is high association of SCI and BCVI in AODI survivors.

Early Infarct Growth Rate Correlation With Endovascular Thrombectomy Clinical Outcomes: Analysis From the SELECT Study.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Time elapsed from last-known well (LKW) and baseline imaging results are influential on endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) outcomes. METHODS: In a prospective multicenter cohort study of imaging selection for endovascular thrombectomy (SELECT [Optimizing Patient's Selection for Endovascular Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke], the early infarct growth rate (EIGR) was defined as ischemic core volume on perfusion imaging (relative cerebral blood flow<30%) divided by the time from LKW to imaging. The optimal EIGR cutoff was identified by maximizing the sum of the sensitivity and specificity to correlate best with favorable outcome and to improve its the predictability. Patients were stratified into slow progressors if EIGR2. The primary outcome was 90-day functional independence (modified Rankin Scale score =0-2). RESULTS: Of 445 consented, 361 (285 EVT, 76 medical management only) patients met the study inclusion criteria. The optimal EIGR was <10 mL/h; 200 EVT patients were slow and 85 fast progressors. Fast progressors had a higher median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (19 versus 15, P<0.001), shorter time from LKW to groin puncture (180 versus 266 minutes, P<0.001). Slow progressors had better collaterals on computed tomography perfusion: hypoperfusion intensity ratio (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 5.11 [2.43-10.76], P<0.001) and computed tomography angiography: collaterals-score (aOR: 4.43 [1.83-10.73], P=0.001). EIGR independently correlated with functional independence after EVT, adjusting for age, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, time LKW to groin puncture, reperfusion (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction score of ≥2b), IV-tPA (intravenous tissue-type plasminogen activator), and transfer status (aOR: 0.78 [0.65-0.94], P=0.01). Slow progressors had higher functional independence rates (121 [61%] versus 30 [35%], P<0.001) and had 3.5 times the likelihood of achieving modified Rankin Scale score =0-2 with EVT (aOR=2.94 [95% CI, 1.53-5.61], P=0.001) as compared to fast progressors, who had substantially worse clinical outcomes both in early and late time window. The odds of good outcome decreased by 14% for each 5 mL/h increase in EIGR (aOR, 0.87 [0.80-0.94], P<0.001) and declined more rapidly in fast progressors. CONCLUSIONS: The EIGR strongly correlates with both collateral status and clinical outcomes after EVT. Fast progressors demonstrated worse outcomes when receiving EVT beyond 6 hours of stroke onset as compared to those who received EVT within 6 hours. Registration: URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov.
