“…Elevated MPD was independently associated with PH with a 20% increased risk of PH for each 5% increase in MPD (OR 1.206; 95% CI 1.037:1.405; p = 0.0147, adjusted for NIHSS and procedure duration). Conclusions Even in patients who are successfully recanalized in an early time window, pretreatment BBB disruption in regions that go on to infarct is associated with an increased risk of post‐EVT HT.…”
