Objective Clinical uncertainty remains whether the blood pressure classification and risk stratifications recommended by the Japanese Society of Hypertension Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension (JSH 2009) are useful in predicting the risks of stroke and its subtypes in the general Japanese population.Methods A total of 1621 stroke-free residents of a Japanese community aged at least 40 years were followed up for 32 years. Outcomes were total and cause-specific stroke (lacunar infarction, atherothrombotic infarction, cardioembolic infarction, cerebral haemorrhage and subarachnoid haemorrhage). Incidence was calculated by the pooling of repeated observations method.Results The age-adjusted incidence of total stroke rose progressively with higher blood pressure levels in both sexes (both P for trend
