Differences in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), detailed CPSS (d-CPSS) and Cincinnati Prehospital Stroke Scale (CPSS) scores between groups according to the location of large vessel occlusion (LVO): proximal LVO in the anterior vascular territory (internal carotid artery [ICA] and M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery [MCA]; n = 118), distal LVO in the anterior circulation (M2 or M3 segments of MCA and anterior cerebral artery [ACA]; n = 48) and posterior circulation LVO (vertebral artery [VA], basilar artery [BA] and posterior cerebral artery [PCA]; n = 17). Boxes, 25 to 75% interquartile range; central

 horizontal bars, median; outer horizontal bars, minimum and maximum values excluding outliers (triangle, dot or square icons). Abbreviation: ns, not significant; *, p ≤ 0.05; **, p ≤ 0.001
