Prevalence of post-stroke depression and its relationship with risk factors for stroke
Background & Objective: Stroke is a major public health problem. Post-stroke depression is one of the common emotional disorders afflicting stroke survivors. The purpose of this study was to determine of the prevalence of depression and its relationship with risk factors for stroke after an episode of stroke. Materials & Methods: This descriptive study was performed on 100 consecutive patients ...
متن کاملGenetic Risk Factors for Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke
Understanding the genetic risk factors for stroke is an essential step to decipher the underlying mechanisms, facilitate the identification of novel therapeutic targets, and optimize the design of prevention strategies. A very small proportion of strokes are attributable to monogenic conditions, the vast majority being multifactorial, with multiple genetic and environmental risk factors of smal...
متن کاملSleep Apnea in Patients with Stroke and Related Risk Factors
Background and Objectives: Sleep apnea involves repetitive cycles of obstructive sleep that disrupt sleep. This complication is the most important modifiable risk factors for stroke. The aim of this study was to assess sleep apnea in patients with stroke. Material and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 132 patients with stroke were recruited using convenience samplin...
متن کاملIdentification of genetic factors and development of genetic risk diagnosis systems for cardiovascular diseases and stroke.
BACKGROUND Polymorphisms of GJA4 and CYBA and of PAI1 and MMP3 are associated with myocardial infarction (MI) in men and women, respectively. In addition, several polymorphisms associated with restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery spasm, or hypertension have been identified. More recently, a large genetic epidemiological study was performed to identify additional ...
متن کاملEstimating the Magnitude of Genetic Factors by Calculating the Genetic Relative Risk of Stroke in First-Ever Lacunar Stroke Patients
BACKGROUND Positive family history of stroke is an independent risk factor for lacunar stroke. However, the magnitude of familial aggregation of a certain disease is better evaluated by the genetic relative risk. This is calculated by dividing the prevalence of specific disease in family members of patients by the prevalence of this disease in the general population. In a cohort of lacunar stro...
