  1. IPTW: inverse probability of treatment weighting, WEB: woven endobridge, OR: odds ratio, CI: confidence interval, SD: standard deviation, mRS: modified Rankin scale. Values are presented as the number and proportion (%) of patients unless otherwise specified. Asterisk indicates statistical significance (p < 0.05)
