Comparing the two groups (infected versus noninfected), stroke patients associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection have experienced elevated levels of CRP (median, 34.97 [interquartile range, 8.71–75.35] versus 5.07 [2.31–8.38], P value <0.001), D-dimer (2405 [710.5–6226.98] versus 669 [478.2–1220], P value <0.001), and IL-6 (14.95 [8.7–29.78] versus (8.1 [7.3–9.3], P value <0.001) (Figures 1 and 2). The gene discussed is IL6; the disease is Stroke.
