**TRAUMA: CT-first resuscitation for severe blunt trauma: A propensity score-matched cohort study**
This retrospective cohort study assessed whether CT-first resuscitation (CTFR)-immediate WBCT in a CT-equipped trauma resuscitation room with prespecified triggers for hemorrhage control-is associated with transfusion, time to hemostatic intervention, and mortality after blunt trauma. These associations appeared more pronounced among patients presenting with shock in exploratory subgroup analyses.

**JAMA: One-Year Outcomes After Endovascular Treatment for Large Acute Ischemic Stroke**
Previous clinical trials demonstrated 90-day benefits for endovascular therapy in acute ischemic stroke with large-core infarcts, but protocols relied on advanced multimodal perfusion imaging.1–4 Selection based on noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT) is an alternative that could broaden access to mechanical thrombectomy.5 In the Thrombectomy for Emergent Salvage of Large Anterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke (TESLA) randomized clinical trial, which used an NCCT-alone selection strategy and compared endovascular therapy with medical management (MM) alone for patients with large-core infarcts, the primary outcome assessed at 90 days did not meet the criterion for statistical superiority.6 Because recovery or decline after large-core stroke may extend beyond 90 days, this article presents the prespecified 1-year secondary efficacy and safety outcomes.
