There was no heterogeneity of the effects of BP lowering (intensive vs. guideline) on functional recovery between standard-dose (OR 0.81, 95% CI 0.59-1.12) and low-dose alteplase (1.06, 0.77-1.47; p = 0.25 for interaction). Similar results were observed for ICH (p = 0.50 for interaction). Conclusions: In thrombolysis-treated patients with predominantly mild-to-moderate severity AIS, intensive BP lowering neither improve functional recovery, either with low-or standard-dose intravenous alteplase, nor beneficially interact with low-dose alteplase in reducing ICH. Trial Registration: The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01422616).]]> Mon 28 Nov 2022 16:54:24 AEDT ]]>
