Abstract: Tissue plasminogen activator (r-tPA) therapy followed by thrombectomy-mediated, mechanical reperfusion profoundly reduces neurologic disability in appropriately selected patients. Nevertheless, a high proportion of these patients (20-37%) develop brain hemorrhage. We examined the contribution of α2-antiplasmin,… read more here.
