Cerebrovascular events
Any stroke (including ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke) or TIA after stenting within the territory of the target vessel.
Time frame: 30 days after stenting
Death
Death after stenting within the territory of target vessel.
Time frame: 30 days after stenting
Cerebrovascular events
Ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke within the territory of the target vessel.
Time frame: 30 days to1 year after stenting
Death
Vascular death after stenting within the territory of target vessel
Time frame: 30 days to1 year after stenting
Complications
During the peri-operative period, complications such as vasospasms, acute thrombosis, vascular rupture, cerebral infarction, and cerebral haemorrhage will be recorded.
Time frame: Peri-operative period
Number of participants with restenosis
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) will be used to calculate the number and incidence of restenosis among all participants.
Time frame: 1 year after stenting
The degree of restenosis of the target vessel
The 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.
Time frame: 1 year after stenting

Change from baseline in The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score
The 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.
Time frame: Baseline and 30 days after stenting
Change from baseline in modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score
The 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.
