Liu et al. 70 reported that among the total of 5170 subjects in CHANCE, a subgroup of 1089 underwent MR angiography, where 56% had intracranial large vessel stenosis (ICAS) and that there was no treatment effect interaction when comparing ICAS versus other (where the majority might be suspected to be small vessel disease), (p = 0.52).
