Distribution of the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 90 days. Functional outcomes were statically significant different between patients with carotid artery dissection and with atherosclerotic carotid artery occlusion but also compared to patients without carotid artery dissection or atherosclerotic occlusion (resp. cOR 2.05; 95%CI 1.17–3.57 and cOR 1.60; 95%CI 1.07–2.38). After adjustments for sex, age, stroke severity (NIHSS) at baseline, time from stroke onset to intervention hospital, intravenous thrombolysis, collateral status and location of intracranial occlusion, functional outcome was no longer statistically different (resp. acOR 1.72; 95%CI 0.84–3.50 and acOR 1.00; 95%CI 0.64–1.56).
