#ResearchTuesday: Tenecteplase and alteplase yielded comparable early reperfusion rates before MT in BAOs (18.7% vs 14.8%; adjusted P=0.862). Rapid MT should be prioritized when early reperfusion is absent #SkimwithSVIN

#Research Tuesday Does thrombectomy help medium/distal vessel occlusion (MeVO) stroke? The new French DISCOUNT RCT (JAMA 2026, n=244, stopped early) says NO in moderate strokes: 90-day mRS 0–2 62% vs 68%, adj OR 0.73 (0.40–1.31); sICH 11% vs 3%. The bigger MeVO picture 👇 • Neutral: DISCOUNT (France), DISTAL (Europe, 543), ESCAPE-MeVO (N.America/Europe, 530) • Positive: ORIENTAL-MeVO (China, 563) — more severe strokes (NIHSS ~10 vs 6), less IVT (~37% vs ~65%) Selection (severity, IVT, time) likely drives the difference. 🔗zurl.co/8gTQ2 #SVIN #SkimWithSVIN

The MAD-MT Score for appropriateness of EVT in DMVO stroke is now available: mad-mt.com/
Using an institutional registry, the investigators derived the MAD-MT score — a pragmatic tool that identifies DMVO patients most likely to benefit from EVT while minimizing risk, supporting future trial design. #stroke ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.…

#ResearchTuesday: In the TRICS-9 phase II trial, among stroke patients ineligible for EVT/IVT, early remote ischemic conditioning was safe, feasible and well tolerated, but did not improve neurological recovery or 90-day functional outcomes #SkimwithSVIN @Cepedrovascular, @Simona_Sacco_, @univaq, @unimib 🔗 zurl.co/v0ofL

This May, in celebration of World Thrombectomy Day (May 15), SVIN proudly partnered with Mission Thrombectomy for the #KickStrokeChallenge! 🏈🧠 It was inspiring to see members, colleagues, friends, and families come together to blend the excitement of football with the vital message of stroke awareness. Every kick, pass, and video helped spread the word that #TimeIsBrain ⏱️ and that rapid access to thrombectomy saves lives. 🚑 A special thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to this campaign. Extra gratitude to @matetinihas for designing the flyer 🎨 and @aemaz100 for the outstanding video editing. 🎥✨ Together, we amplified awareness, celebrated teamwork 🤝, and reinforced the importance of recognizing stroke symptoms and acting FAST. ⚡ #SVIN #MissionThrombectomy #WorldThrombectomyDay #StrokeAwareness #TimeIsBrain #VascularNeurology #NeuroIntervention #EndovascularTherapy #StrokeCare #BrainHealth #KickStrokeChallenge

⚽️ Every match can be decided in seconds. So can a stroke. During a stroke, millions of brain cells are lost each minute. Recognizing the warning signs and acting quickly can make all the difference. #Everysecondcounts#StrokeAwareness @svinsociety Remember FAST 🧠Face Drooping 🧠Arm Weakness 🧠Speech Difficulty 🧠Time to call 911
