Predictors for affected stroke territory and outcome of acute stroke treatments are different for posterior versus anterior circulation stroke

Abstract Distinct patient characteristics have been proposed for ischaemic stroke in the anterior versus posterior circulation. However, data on functional outcome according to stroke territory in patients with acute stroke treatment are conflicting and information on outcome predictors is scarce. I...
