背景技术背景：农村居民与卒中发病率和死亡率相关，但对非卧床卒中护理的潜在城乡差异知之甚少。我们使用了CANHEART（心血管健康门诊护理研究小组）队列，从加拿大安大略省的链接管理数据库创建，并根据既往是否存在卒中分为一级预防队列（N = 6 207 032）和二级预防队列（N = 75 823）。我们将农村社区定义为人口规模为
BACKGROUND: Rural residence is associated with stroke incidence and mortality, but little is known about potential rural/urban differences in ambulatory stroke care.METHODS AND RESULTS: We used the CANHEART (Cardiovascular Health in Ambulatory Care Research Team) cohort, created from linked administrative databases from the province of Ontario, Canada, and divided into primary (N= 6 207 032) and secondary (N= 75 823) prevention cohorts based on the absence or presence of prior stroke. We defined rural communities as those with a population size of
