背景和目的 关于年轻人中风发病率的黑人和白人差异的信息很少。方法 对 1988 年巴尔的摩市和巴尔的摩县 15 至 44 岁成年人的脑梗死和脑出血发生率进行了研究。诊断是根据神经科医生对神经科护士从 41 家医院的病历中获得的数据进行审查而得出的。结果每10万人脑梗塞发生率为黑人男性22.8例，白人男性10.3例，黑人女性20.7例，白人女性10.8例。每10万人的脑出血率为黑人男性14.2例，白人男性4.6例，黑人女性4.8例，白人女性1.5例。结论 黑人的脑梗塞和脑出血发生率均显着高于白人（P<.05）。与意大利佛罗伦萨或瑞典斯德哥尔摩相比，巴尔的摩的脑梗塞发病率较高。 （中风。1993；24[补充 I]：I-13-I-15。）
Background and Purpose Little information is available regarding black-white differences in stroke incidence in young adults. Methods Cerebral infarction and intracerebral hemorrhage rates among adults 15 to 44 years of age were studied in Baltimore City and Baltimore County for 1988. Diagnoses were based on neurologist review of data obtained from medical records at 41 hospitals by neurological nurses. Results The cerebral infarction rates per 100 000 were 22.8 for black males, 10.3 for white males, 20.7 for black females, and 10.8 for white females. The intracerebral hemorrhage rates per 100 000 were 14.2 for black males, 4.6 for white males, 4.8 for black females, and 1.5 for white females. Conclusions Blacks had significantly (P<.05) higher rates than whites for both cerebral infarction and intracerebral hemorrhage. Cerebral infarction rates are high in Baltimore compared with Florence, Italy, or Stockholm, Sweden. (Stroke. 1993;24[suppl I]:I-13-I-15.)
