Background: Evidence from sources outside the typical clinical research setting, such as a real-world setting, may complement evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCTs). The aim of the present study was to carry out a meta-analysis of available real-world evidence that focused on the efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment in patients with wake-up stroke (WUS) or daytime unwitnessed stroke (DUS) compared to that in patients treated <= 6 h after the onset of an ischemic stroke. Methods: Data mining was conducted on 1 May 2021 from PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials Cochrane Library. The study reviewed all published that assessed the effect of endovascular treatment in WUS and DUS compared to that received by patients with ischemic stroke. Relevant data were extracted and the narrative was reviewed and analysed. The results were expressed as odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Findings: The meta-analysis showed no significant differences between the two groups in the rates of functional independence (OR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.65-1.02; P = 0.07), symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage (OR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.57-1.30; P = 0.470), and all-cause mortality (OR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.73-1.16; P = 0.50). There was also no heterogeneity between the trials. Conclusion: The pooled analysis provided evidence to support the use of endovascular treatment in WUS and DUS with favourable perfusion imaging. The meta-analysis confirmed the main findings of RCTs of endovascular treatment in WUS and DUS in a real-world setting and therefore strengthens the validity of this treatment strategy.
