Description
Ricardo Varela and co-authors test a blood mark for bleed risk after stroke clot removal in a 2026 study. Hemorrhagic change after thrombectomy for large vessel stroke is feared and hard to foresee. GFAP, a protein freed when astroglial cells are hurt, may flag tissue primed to bleed.
Two patient cohorts, 78 and 110 strong, gave blood right after the procedure, read on two platforms. Bleed rates ran near one in six and one in eleven. Patients who bled carried about sixfold higher GFAP levels. A scan based score still led as a lone predictor, with GFAP close in the chase.
