Patients with LVO due to CAD undergoing thrombectomy with emergent stenting were compared to those without emergent stenting. The primary outcome was functional independence (modified Rankin Scale 0-2) at 3\u00a0months, secondary outcomes included early neurological improvement (ENI) within 24-48\u00a0h, successful recanalisation, symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage (sICH) and mortality at 3\u00a0months.

After robust adjustment, emergent stenting was not associated with functional independence (adjusted risk ratio [aRR]\u00a0=\u00a01.01; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.89-1.15) or ENI (aRR\u00a0=\u00a01.07; 95% CI, 0.95-1.21) but with successful recanalisation (aRR\u00a0=\u00a01.29; 95% CI, 1.10-1.50) and reduced mortality at 3\u00a0months (aRR\u00a0=\u00a00.39; 95% CI, 0.15-0.99).
