Abstract
Risk factors examined within one year before the onset of the attack were investigated in 92 cases with cerebrovascular accident.
Systolic and/or diastolic hypertension, hyperuricemia, elevated SUN and abnormal ECG findings (atrial fibrillation, T wave abnormality, QRS high voltage, abnormal Q wave) were related with CVA.
Also, CVA were frequently encountered with thinness, anemia, hypoproteinemia and hyperglycemia in male, and obesity, hypertriglyceridemia and elevated serum creatinine in female.
Hypertension, hyperglycemia, elevated SUN and serum creatinine played inportant roles in the occurrence of cerebral infarction, and hypertension and hypertriglyceridemia in cerebral hemorrhage.
