Proportion of patients who experienced relevant artery occlusion among aPL- and AF-stroke patients. Intracranial branch vessel occlusion, occlusion of the ACA, PCA, M2 or distal segments of the MCA, or SCA; intracranial main vessel occlusion, occlusion of the distal ICA, M1 segment of the MCA, distal VA, or BA; and extracranial large vessel occlusion, occlusion of the CCA, proximal ICA, or proximal VA. ***p < 0.001; **p < 0.01; ns no significant difference. ACA anterior cerebral artery, AF-stroke atrial fibrillation-related stroke, aPL-stroke antiphospholipid antibody-related stroke, BA basilar artery, CCA common carotid artery, ICA internal carotid artery, MCA middle cerebral artery, PCA posterior cerebral artery, SCA superior cerebellar artery, VA vertebral artery.
