  • Data are expressed as n/N (%), effect size (95% CI), median (IQR) or p value.

  • Scores on the mRS range from 0 to 6, with 0 indicating no disability, 3 indicating moderate disability and 6 indicating death.

  • The association between eGFR as a categorical variable and the efficacy and safety outcome was estimated by calculating the ORs with 95% CIs using binary logistic regression models. β-coefficient with its 95% CI was calculated using general linear model for the outcome of European quality of life visual analogue scale.

  • *The models were adjusted for age, sex, baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, history of hypertension, history of antiplatelet and anticoagulant drug use, onset-to-needle time and bridging thrombectomy.

  • eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; mRS, modified Rankin Scale.
