首次在印度加尔各答市进行了一项以人群为基础的卒中疾病聚类调查。接受调查的人口总数为50291人。脑卒中粗患病率为147/10万（年龄校正患病率为334/10万）。1998-1999年卒中年发病率为36/10万（年龄调整后的年发病率为105/10万）。除50至69岁年龄组外，所有年龄组的中风患病率中女性都超过男性。与西方国家相比，我们研究中的脑出血病例相对较多。病例对照分析发现高血压是中风最重要的危险因素。版权所有(C) 2001 S. Karger AG，巴塞尔
A population-based cluster survey on stroke disorders was conducted for the first time in the city of Calcutta, India. The population surveyed totaled 50,291. The crude prevalence rate of stroke was 147/100,000 (age-adjusted prevalence 334/100,000). The annual incidence rate of stroke for the year 1998-1999 was 36/100,000 (age-adjusted annual incidence rate 105/100,000). Women outnumbered men regarding stroke prevalence in all age groups except in the 50- to 69-year age group. There were relatively more cases of cerebral haemorrhage in our study, compared to those in the western countries. Case-control analysis found hypertension to be the most significant risk factor for stroke. Copyright (C) 2001 S. Karger AG, Basel.
