The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports on most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, weight) factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose control) that contribute health. Statistical Update presents latest data a range major clinical circulatory disease conditions (including congenital rhythm disorders,...

Despite the global impact and advances in understanding pathophysiology of cerebrovascular diseases, term "stroke" is not consistently defined clinical practice, research, or assessments public health. The classic definition mainly does account for science technology. Stroke Council American Heart Association/American Association convened a writing group to develop an expert consensus document updated stroke 21st century. Central nervous system infarction as brain, spinal cord, retinal cell...
There is increasing interest in utilizing novel markers of cardiovascular disease risk, and consequently, there a need to assess the value their use. This scientific statement reviews current concepts risk evaluation proposes standards for critical appraisal assessment methods. An adequate marker requires sound research design, representative at-risk population, an number outcome events. Studies should report degree which it adds prognostic information provided by standard markers. No single...
Background— Stroke incidence is greater in blacks than whites; data on Hispanics are limited. Comparing subtype-specific ischemic stroke rates may help to explain race-ethnic differences risk. The aim of this population-based study was determine subtype for whites, blacks, and living one community. Methods Results— A comprehensive surveillance system incorporating multiple overlapping strategies used identify all cases first occurring between July 1, 1993, June 30, 1997, northern Manhattan....
We aimed to create an index stratify cryptogenic stroke (CS) patients with patent foramen ovale (PFO) by their likelihood that the was related PFO.Using data from 12 component studies, we used generalized linear mixed models predict presence of PFO among CS, and derive a simple CS. estimated stratum-specific PFO-attributable fraction stroke/TIA recurrence rates.Variables associated in CS included younger age, cortical on neuroimaging, absence these factors: diabetes, hypertension, smoking,...
Moderate alcohol consumption has been shown to be protective for coronary heart disease, but the relationship between moderate and ischemic stroke is more controversial.To determine association risk of stroke.Population-based case-control study conducted July 1993 June 1997.Multiethnic population in northern Manhattan, New York, NY, aged 40 years or older.Cases (n = 677) had first were matched community controls 1139) derived through random digit dialing by age, sex, race/ethnicity. Mean +/-...
<h3>Importance</h3> The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) after infection is poorly understood. <h3>Objective</h3> To determine whether hospitalization for pneumonia associated with an increased short-term and long-term CVD. <h3>Design, Settings, Participants</h3> We examined 2 community-based cohorts: the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS, n = 5888; enrollment age, ≥65 years; period, 1989–1994) Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study (ARIC, 15 792; 45-64 1987–1989). Participants were...
The postpartum state is associated with a substantially increased risk of thrombosis. It uncertain to what extent this heightened persists beyond the conventionally defined 6-week period.Using claims data on all discharges from nonfederal emergency departments and acute care hospitals in California, we identified women who were hospitalized for labor delivery between January 1, 2005, June 30, 2010. We used validated diagnosis codes identify composite primary outcome ischemic stroke,...
Our goal is to describe the effect of race and ethnicity on stroke epidemiology, personal beliefs, access care, response treatment, participation in clinical research. In addition, we seek determine state knowledge main factors that may explain disparities with identifying gaps guide future The intended audience includes physicians, nurses, other healthcare professionals, policy makers.Members writing group were appointed by American Heart Association Stroke Council Scientific Statement...
Obesity is well recognized as a risk factor for coronary heart disease and mortality. The relationship between abdominal obesity ischemic stroke remains less clear. Our aim was to evaluate an independent in multiethnic community.
Recent data suggest that a thrombogenic atrial substrate can cause stroke in the absence of fibrillation. Such an cardiopathy may explain some proportion cryptogenic strokes.
Background— Evidence of the relationship cardiovascular health (CVH), defined by American Heart Association, and specific outcomes is lacking, particularly among Hispanics. This study sought to evaluate between number ideal CVH metrics risk, overall event subtype, in a multiethnic community-based prospective cohort. Methods Results— A total 2981 subjects (mean age, 69±10 years; 54% Caribbean Hispanic, 25% black, 21% white) free myocardial infarction stroke at baseline Northern Manhattan...
