The objective is to compare the effect of general anesthesia (GA) and monitored anesthesia care (MAC) on clinical outcomes in patients with endovascular therapy for vertebrobasilar occlusion stroke. 139 patients undergoing endovascular therapy for vertebrobasilar stroke, were recruited. The patients were randomized into GA group and MAC group (about 11 ratio). GA group received general anesthesia and MAC group received monitored anesthesia care during endovascular therapy. The primary outcome measure was the shift in the degree of disability among the 2 groups as measured by the modified Rankin scale score (mRS) at 90 days (80-100 days). Secondary end points included infarct volume and related complications. The patients were assigned randomly (about 11 allocation) to GA group (n=72) and MAC group (n=67). The primary outcome of functional independence measured by 90-day mRS score was not significantly different between the 2 groups (median (IQR), 2 (1-3) vs. 3 (1-4); P=0.316). Final infarct volume was sr occlusion strok caused by occlusions in the posterior circulation, MAC appears to be as effective as GA. However, MAC is associated with bigger final infarct volume. Future studies are warranted to confirm our findings. Despite the essential functions of the intestinal microbiota in human physiology, little research was reported on gut microbiota alterations in intensive care patients. This investigation examined the dysbacteriosis of intestinal flora in critically ill patients and evaluated the prognostic performance of this dysbiosis to predict in-hospital mortality. A prospective cohort of patients were consecutively recruited in the Intensive Care Units (ICUs) in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from March 2017 through October 2017.
