Preserved structural connectivity mediates the clinical effect of thrombolysis in patients with anterior-circulation stroke

Preserved structural connectivity mediates the clinical effect of thrombolysis in patients with anterior-circulation stroke

The effects of thrombolysis therapy in stroke on structural connectivity are not well understood. Here, the authors show with causal mediation analysis that the clinical benefits of thrombolysis in anterior circulation stroke are mediated via structural connectivity.
