The trial will be a randomized, double-blind, controlled, single-center trial. The purpose of this trial is to determine the efficacy and safety of semaglutide in improving neurological outcomes after endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke. The patients in the treatment group will receive a subcutaneous injection of 0.5 mg semaglutide into the abdomen during endovascular thrombectomy. The patients in the control group will receive a similar-looking placebo. Patients will be randomized to the treatment or control group by the pharmacy, eliminating the selection bias. The patient and evaluator will be blind to the allocation of patients, further minimizing the bias.
