Description

Sana Aftabi Yousefabad and co-authors, in a 2026 conference abstract, reviewed whether a simple blood ratio at hospital arrival predicts outcomes after stroke clot removal. The ratio compares urea with creatinine, two waste markers whose balance hints at dehydration. The team searched three databases for studies of patients treated with endovascular thrombectomy, the procedure that pulls a clot from a brain artery.

Only two studies, with four hundred and thirty-six patients in total, met the rules. Patients arriving with a high ratio fared worse on every count: the artery opened less fully, bleeding complications rose, and both poor function and death were more common. The authors suggest that treating dehydration before the procedure might help, while noting how thin the evidence base still is.
