Table 4 A stepwise regression model to elucidate clinical factors more associated rtPA inclusion in the non-telestroke population

	B value	Adj. odds ratio	Wald	P value
Higher age	− 0.046	0.955 (0.922–0.989)	6.797	0.009*
NIH stroke scale	0.066	1.068 (1.009–1.13)	5.190	0.023*
Blood glucose level	− 0.006	0.994 (0.99–0.999)	6.037	0.014*

Renal insufficiency	− 1.817	0.163 (0.033–0.791)	5.064	0.024*
Constant	6.225	505.460	11.330	0.001*

Positive B values (Adj, OR > 1) denote variables more associated with rtPA inclusion while negative B values (Adj. OR < 1) denote variables more associated with rtPA exclusion. Multicollinearity and interactions among independent variables were checked. Hosmer–Lemeshow test (P = 0.493), Cox & Snell (R² = 0.224), classification table (overall correctly classified percentage = 70.8%) were applied to check the model fitness
