cord-271840-cw2xy1m6	Majmundar, Neil	Incidence, Pathophysiology, and Impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) on Acute Ischemic Stroke	2020-09-23		.txt	text/plain	1224	74	51	4 reported 5 patients positive for COVID-19 in a New York City hospital system who presented with strokes secondary to largevessel occlusions (LVOs) over a 2-week period despite very few or no risk factors for stroke. Due to the high rates of nosocomial transmission as well as the potential for overwhelming hospital resources, stroke centers across the world implemented new protocols for the triaging of patients with stroke, particularly those with LVOs requiring MT. 8 A recent study from a single center in New Jersey, one of the most heavily COVID-impacted states in the country, corroborated the decrease in overall stroke volume but also found a greater proportion of patients with stroke presenting with LVOs during the COVID-19 period. Although the overall incidence of AIS in COVID-19 is not clear, there is emerging evidence that the rate of LVOs is increased in patients with COVID-19 who may not have the typical stroke risk factors.	./cache/cord-271840-cw2xy1m6.txt	./txt/cord-271840-cw2xy1m6.txt
