Inclusion criteria

* Participants had a symptomatic intracranial stenosis of 70-99 percentage (%) with a lesion length of ≤15 mm and target vessel diameter of ≥2.0 mm in the intracranial internal carotid, middle cerebral, intracranial vertebral or basilar arteries and the measurements of stenosis will be made on magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) using the Warfarin-Aspirin Symptomatic Intracranial Disease (WASID) trial method and confirmed by digital subtraction angiography (DSA). * Presented with transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke within the past 12 months attributed to the stenosis.

Exclusion criteria

* Participants with acute infarctions within the past 3 weeks. * Severe arterial tortuosity prevents the deployment of endovascular devices. * Non-atherosclerotic lesion on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), embolic or perforator stroke on MRI or computerized tomography (CT). * A baseline modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of \>3. * Massive cerebral infarction (\>1/2 middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory), intracranial hemorrhage, epidural or sub-dural hemorrhage, and intracranial brain tumor on CT or MRI scan.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Cerebrovascular events30 days after stentingAny stroke (including ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke) or TIA after stenting within the territory of the target vessel.
Death30 days after stentingDeath after stenting within the territory of target vessel.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The degree of restenosis of the target vessel1 year after stentingThe degree of restenosis will be assessed by performing magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) using the Warfarin-Aspirin Symptomatic Intracranial Disease (WASID) trial method for the measurements of arterial stenosis.
ComplicationsPeri-operative periodDuring the peri-operative period, complications such as vasospasms, acute thrombosis, vascular rupture, cerebral infarction, and cerebral haemorrhage will be recorded.
Change from baseline in modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scoreBaseline and 30 days after stentingThe modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke.it ranges from 0 to 6 .The higher the mRS score, the worse the prognosis.
Change from baseline in The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scoreBaseline and 30 days after stentingThe National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score is a tool used to objectively quantify the impairment caused by a stroke and to evaluate stroke severity. It ranges from 0 to 42, with 42 being the highest and 0 being the lowest. The higher the NIHSS score, the worse the neurological function.
Number of participants with restenosis1 year after stentingMagnetic resonance angiography (MRA) will be used to calculate the number and incidence of restenosis among all participants.
