Methods Data from a total of 3901 patients, consisting of 3525 patients with CI and 376 patients with ICH were pros-pectively coded and entered into a computerized data bank. Results Hypertension and smoking were the most prominent factors affecting overall stroke followed by mild internal carotid artery stenosis (< 50%), hypercholesterolemia, transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), diabetes mellitus, and cardiac ischemia. Univariate analysis showed that factors in male significantly associated with CI versus ICH were old age, a family history of stroke, and intermittent claudication; whereas in female the factors were oral contraception and migraine. By multivariate analysis, in all patients, the factors significantly associated with CI as opposed to ICH were smoking, hyperch-olesterolemia, migraine, TIAs, atrial fibrillation, structural heart disease, and arterial disease. Hypertension was the only significant factor related with ICH versus CI.Conclusions The factors for ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke are not exactly the same. Cardiac and arterial disease are the most powerful factors associated with CI rather than ICH.展开更多

Methods To retrospectively analyze the clinical and laboratory data on 17,682 patients with essential hypertension during Jan 1 s,, 1993-Dec 12th, 2008 in PLA general hospital. Results 1） Among all of the inrolled cases, those aged 60-64 account for 27.87%, 65-69 years group account for 26.55%, 70-74 years group accounted for 23.96%, 75-79 years group accounted for 14.14%, 80-84 years group accounted for 5.26%, 85-89 years group accounted for 1.69%, 〉 90 years accounted for 0.41%. 2） The prevalence rate of chronic complications in 60-69 years group were 31.3-31.2% for diabetes and,22.6-27.0% for cerebrovascular disease, 9.5-11.1% for myocardial infarction, 6.7-9.1% for heart failure, 5.8-6.0% for renal dysfanction 4.9-6.8% for atrial fibrillation, 0.1-0.3% for multiple organ dysfunction syndrome （MODS） in the elderly（P 〈0.05 ）. 3） The first four complications of hypertension were diabetes（33.5%）, cerebrovascular disease （31.9%）, myocardial infarction（13.2%） and heart failure（12.3%） in 70-74 years group （P〈0.05）, cerebrovascular disease （42.8%）, diabetes （32.8%）, heart failure （16.5%） and myocardial infarction（15.9%） in 75-79 years group （P〈0.05）, cerebrovascular disease （45.4%）, diabetes （35.0%）, heart failure （21.1%） and myocardial infarction（l 5.9%） in 80-84 years group （P〈0.05）, cerebrovascular disease（42.5%）, diabetes （35.8%）, heart failure （23.1%） and renal dysfanction （17.7%） in 85-89 years group（P〈0.05 ）,and cerebrovascular disease （45. 2%）, heart failure（31.5%） , diabetes （26.0%） and renal dysfanction （20.5%） in patients more than 90 years group （P〈0.05）. Conclusions The prevalence rate and kinds of chronic complications in hospitalized aged patients with hypertension were changed with the increasing age, and the first kind of complication is cerebrovascular disease. It is of more importance to prevent the occurrence of renal dysfanction and heart failure in those hypertension patients who were more than 80 years old.展开更多
