摘要: Background and Purpose— Seasonal variation in stroke incidence was examined using 14-year registration data a Japanese population. We also if this modified by conventional risk factors hypertension, diabetes mellitus, drinking, smoking. Methods— Data were obtained from the Takashima Stroke Registry, which covers stable population of ≈55 000 County central Japan. There 1665 (men, 893; women, 772) registered first-ever cases during 1988 to 2001. The average age onset for men women patients 69.4 74.2 years, respectively. Incidence rates (per 100 person-years) 95% CI calculated gender, age, subtype winter, spring, summer, autumn. After stratifying their factor history, OR (with CI) having autumn, spring calculated, with summer serving as reference. Results— Among seasons, per person-years h...
