  • Adjusted variables; age, sex, baseline NIHSS, atrial fibrillation, target occlusion location, and OTR (ITR or OTI) (including the baseline ASPECTS in the analysis of overall patients).

  • P=0.51, no significant interaction between individual ASPECTSs (10, 9, 8 and 7) and the OTR.

  • P=0.38, no significant interaction between two ASPECTS (9–10, 7–8) categories and the OTR.

  • ITR, imaging to reperfusion time; OTI, onset to imaging time; OTR; onset to reperfusion time.
