Social Network Simulation Identifies Persistent Racial Disparities Of Delay To Hospital In Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients
Delayed arrival to the hospital remains the major reason for not deploying stroke therapies. In the United States, minority patients have longer delays that have not been adequately understood nor acted upon. Social context plays a key role, because most strokes occur in front of witnesses who influence decision-making. We created a social network simulation to understand the interpersonal factors that influence decision-making following acute stroke, particularly in minority patients.

A hospital-based study on ischaemic stroke characteristics, management, and outcomes in Sarawak: Where do we stand?
Located on the Borneo Island, Sarawak is the largest state of Malaysia and has a population distinctive from Peninsular Malaysia. The ischaemic stroke data in Sarawak had not been reported despite the growing number of patients annually. We aimed to investigate patient characteristics, management, and outcomes of ischaemic stroke in Sarawak and benchmark the results with national and international published data.

Weekend Effect on in-Hospital Mortality for Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke in US Rural and Urban Hospitals
Previous studies have reported a “weekend effect” on stroke mortality, whereby stroke patients admitted during weekends have a higher risk of in-hospital death than those admitted during weekdays.

Bilateral large vessel occlusion causing massive ischemic stroke in a covid-19 patient
The case of a 70-year-old male presenting an ischemic stroke related to COVID-19 infection is described. He was initially admitted to the hospital with respiratory insufficiency syndrome secondary to pneumonia caused by SARS Co2. In the next days, he developed rapid neurological deterioration characterized by drowsiness which progressed to deep coma. D-dimer was elevated. Brain CT scan showed bilateral massive ischemic stroke located in the anterior circulation, CT angiogram showed occlusion in the left internal carotid artery and the right middle cerebral artery.

Exploring the relationship between Air Quality and Ischemic Stroke Admissions during the COVID-19 pandemic
Amongst all the global catastrophe due to Coronavirus disease 2019, a significant bright spot is a reduction in air pollution as countries undergo lockdowns to limit the spread of infection. Another reduction that has been reported is in the number of strokes presenting to hospitals, despite the virus implicated in causing a hypercoagulable state. Acute exposure to air pollution has been linked to increase in stroke incidence and the improvement in air quality may be responsible for the decrease in stroke presentations.

Pre-Hospital Diagnosis in Mobile Stroke Unit
Mobile stroke unit (MSU) has been shown to rapidly provide pre-hospital thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). MSU encounters neurological disorders other than AIS that require emergent treatment.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on stroke severity and mortality in the south-east of Santiago, Chile
Background and purpose: Chile has been one of the most affected countries by the COVID-19 pandemic, with one of the highest case rates per population. This has affected the epidemiological behaviour of various pathologies. We analyze the impact of the pandemic on the number of admissions due to stroke, its severity and mortality in Santiago, Chile.Methods: a multicenter observational study based on the records of the 3 hospitals of the South East health service in Santiago, Chile. We recorded the number of patients admitted for ischemic stroke between 01 January 2020 and 30 June 2020.

Association between Air Pollutants and Initial Hospital Admission for Ischemic Stroke in Korea from 2002 to 2013
There is limited information regarding the association between air pollution exposure and stroke incidence. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the associations between short-term exposure to ambient air pollutants and initial hospital admission for ischemic stroke.

Annual Direct Cost of Dysphagia Associated with Acute Ischemic Stroke in the United States
Dysphagia after acute ischemic stroke is frequent and increases the risk of pneumonia, insertion of feeding tube, hospital length-of-stay and rates of discharge to institutional care. However, the financial impact of dysphagia after acute ischemic stroke is not well understood.

A survey and analysis of pediatric stroke protocols
Objectives Despite their comparative rarity, about 10,000 ischemic strokes occur in children every year, and no standardized method of treatment exists. Protocols have been effective at increasing diagnosis accuracy and treatment efficacy in adults, but little has been done to evaluate such tools in children. A survey was developed to identify the proportion of pediatric hospitals that have stroke protocols and analyze the components used for diagnosis and treatment to identify consensus.Materials and methods Physicians at 50 pediatric hospitals that contributed to the Pediatric Hospital Inpatient Sample in specialties inv...

Patterns in the number of interventionalists for endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke in the US
Endovascular thrombectomy (ET) has become the standard of stroke care for large vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke (AIS) involving the anterior circulation. With continued eligibility expansion, the demand for neuro-intervention is growing. Current estimates indicate inadequate supply of interventionalists. However, there is limited data describing the number of interventionalists per hospital in the US, and correlations with outcomes.
