    Frank B, Grotta JC, Alexandrov AV, Bluhmki E, Lyden P, Meretoja A, Mishra NK, Shuaib A, Wahlgren NG, Weimar C, Lees KR. Stroke. 2013; 44 (3): 727-33

    Intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase is approved for acute ischemic stroke, but its use is limited by numerous contraindications and warnings arising from trial selection criteria or expert opinions. We examined outcomes from alteplase-treated versus untreated patients, registered in a trials archive, according to presence or absence of specified contraindications and warnings.
