摘要

BACKGROUND:Stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity of vascular diseases, and its incidence maintains at a high level around the world. In China, stroke has been a major public health problem. Because the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke is different from that of hemorrhagic stroke, their clinical factors would not be the same. Therefore to investigate the different effects of various effect factors on ischemic versus hemorrhagic stroke and then to enhance the prevention are crucial to decrease the incidence.METHODS:A total of 692 patients, consisting of 540 ischemic stroke patients and 152 hemorrhagic stroke patients from East China, were included in this study. The related factors of stroke subtypes were collected and analyzed.RESULTS:The factors significantly associated with ischemic stroke as opposed to hemorrhagic stroke were family history of stroke, obesity, atherosclerotic plaque of the common carotid artery, atrial fibrillation, hyperfibrinogenemia, transient ischemic attack (TIA), atherosclerotic plaque of the internal carotid artery, coronary heart, lower high-density lipoproteins (lower HDL), increasing age, diabetes mellitus, and gender (male) (P〈0.05). Leukocytosis, hypertension and family history of hypertension were the significant factors associated with hemorrhagic stroke versus ischemic stroke. Smoking, drinking, kidney diseases and lower HDL-C were the significant factors contributing to ischemic stroke in man. Obesity, family history of hypertension, family history of stroke, hypercholesteremia and myocardial ischemia were the significant factors for females with ischemic stroke.CONCLUSIONS:The most prominent factors for overall stroke in East China were hypertension, followed by higher pulse pressure and hypercholesteremia. The factors for ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke are not the same. Different effects of risk factors on stroke are found in male and female patients.
