Description

Rahimi Syaidah and co-authors set in 2026 a data-based rule for sorting the blood clots that cause stroke. What a clot is made of can sway how well its removal works, yet labs lacked a clear line between even and mixed clots. Two expert readers first sorted 269 clots by eye into red-cell rich, fibrin and platelet rich, or mixed.

The team then found a seventy-five percent cutoff that best matched the expert calls. Applied to a registry of 3,576 clots, the groups split by cause: red-cell clots tied more to artery disease, fibrin-rich clots to heart sources. Mixed clots were larger and more often blocked more than one vessel segment.
