: One of the authors (GT) has significant statistical expertise.
: Written informed consent was obtained from all subjects (patients) or their legal representatives in the THRACE study.
: The THRACE study was approved by the CPP (Comité de Protection des Personnes) III Nord Est Ethics Committee and the research boards of the participating centers.
: In addition to the THRACE trial [1], the stroke population studied here has been published previously in the following articles dealing with entirely different scientific questions, respectively cost-effectiveness of thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke [2], impact of pretreatment lesional volume on clinical outcome and thrombectomy efficacy [3], outcome after reperfusion therapies in patients with large baseline DWI stroke lesions [4], susceptibility vessel sign [5, 6], inter- and intraobserver reliability for angiographic leptomeningeal collateral flow assessment by the American Society of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology/Society of Interventional Radiology scale [7], imaging features and safety and efficacy of endovascular stroke treatment [8] and Validation of Overestimation Ratio and TL-SVS as imaging biomarker of cardioembolic stroke and time from onset to MRI [9] whereas we focused on FLAIR vascular hyperintensities.1.
