    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. -To describe clinical and radiological characteristics of LVO patients. - To assess factors associated with LVO (age, sex, stroke severity, comorbidities).

    Subgroup analysis: By age group, sex, region, NIHSS

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ischemic Stroke, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ahmed Nasr Professor of neurology, Professor (+201009949677, d_ahmednasr@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the prevalence of LVO among acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients presenting to Assiut University hospitals (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jan 2026.
