This study identified early differences between patients with 10-year follow-up and those without, though effect sizes were small and non-existent at 5 years. SRS-22 scores at 10 year between the complete and imputed data sets did not differ. Clinically relevant outcomes of the subset who followed-up at 10 year are likely generalizable to the entire eligible AIS population.
