Abstract: ObjectiveTo explore risk factors and the difference between ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke.MethodsData for demography,disease history,family history of disease,life style,blood pressure,blood sugar and blood lipids etc,were collected from patients with ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke in six hospitals of Tongliao city in Inner Mongolia.EpiDate software was used to set up data bank.All data was entered by means of two entries,and SPSS software version 1310 was used to analyze the data.ResultsMeans of SBP,DBP,blood sugar were 172.47±34.79,104.06±19.60,7.12±3.00,respectively.Prevalence rates of hypertension and hyperglycemia in hemorrhagic stroke patients were significantly higher than that in ischemic stroke patients(P<0.01).The mean of TC(5.13±1.18)and prevalence rates(38.5% and 23.7%)of hypertriglyceridemia and smoking in ischemic stroke patients were significantly higher than that(4.99±1.17,30.0%,20.0%, respectively)in hemorrhagic stroke patients(P<0.01).ConclusionSmoking,hyperlipemia were higher risk factors for ischemic stroke,hypertension and hyperglycemia were higher risk factors for hemorrhagic stroke.
