Lipid-lowering pretreatment and outcome following intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischaemic stroke: a post hoc analysis of the Enhanced Control Of Hypertension And Thrombolysis Stroke Study trial
- Abstract:
-
Background: Debate exists as to whether statin pretreatment confers an increased risk of 90- day mortality and symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage (sICH) in acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT). We assessed the effects of undifferentiated lipid-lowering pretreatment on outcomes and interaction with low-dose versus standard-dose alteplase in a post hoc subgroup analysis of ENCHANTED (Enhanced Control of Hypertension and Thrombolysis Stro...
