OR for IV thrombolysis. BUN indicates blood urea nitrogen; CT, computerized tomography; DM, diabetes mellitus; IV, intravenous; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; mRS, modified Rankin disability scale; NIHSS, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale; PS, propensity score; SBP, systolic blood pressure; SYSO, symptomatic stenosis or occlusion of the major cerebral arteries.
Adjusted for age, sex, baseline NIHSS score, onset to arrival time, hypertension, DM, history of stroke, antiplatelet, SBP, fasting glucose, BUN, total cholesterol, CT, CT angiography, MRI, and SYSO.
PS‐matched sample included 15 pairs.
Adjusted for age, sex, baseline NIHSS score, and onset to arrival time.
