          Abstract

          RESUMEN Introducción: Las enfermedades cerebrovasculares son la tercera causa de muerte y la primera de invalidez en el mundo. Objetivo: Medir las asociaciones entre los ictus cerebrovasculares y sus factores de riesgo. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, la serie estuvo conformada por 904 pacientes con diagnóstico al ingreso de enfermedad cerebrovascular, en el período comprendido entre junio 2017 a junio 2018, en el Hospital Militar Central "Dr. Carlos J. Finlay". Se analizaron las formas clínicas de enfermedad cerebrovascular, a partir de las variables edad, sexo, hábito de fumar, alcoholismo, hipertensión arterial, diabetes mellitus, hipercolesterolemia e hipertrigliceridemia. Se utilizaron como medidas de resumen, las frecuencias absolutas y relativas. Resultados: El 54,7 % de los pacientes eran mayores de 70 años y el 58,7 % del sexo masculino. El hábito de fumar se constató en el 87,7 % de pacientes con ictus aterotrombótico y en el 89,2 % de los que tuvieron hemorragias intraparenquimatosas y el alcohol en el 64,6 % de los pacientes con hemorragias intraparenquimatosas. Más del 80 % de los pacientes con ictus isquémicos y hemorrágicos, eran hipertensos. El ictus cardioembólico se asoció en el 91,9 %, con arritmia cardiaca. Conclusiones: La enfermedad cerebrovascular predominó por encima de los 70 años y del sexo masculino. Los ictus isquémicos son más frecuentes que los hemorrágicos. La hipertensión arterial y la diabetes mellitus fueron los factores de riesgo más frecuentes, tanto en los ictus isquémicos como hemorrágicos.

          ABSTRACT Introduction: Cerebrovascular disease is the third leading cause of death and the first cause of disability in the world. Objective: To measure the associations between cerebrovascular strokes and their risk factors. Methods: A descriptive study was carried out, the series was made up of 904 patients diagnosed upon admission of cerebrovascular disease, in the period from June 2017 to June 2018 at the Hospital Militar Central Dr. Carlos J. Finlay. The different clinical forms of cardiovascular diseases were analyzed based on the variables age, sex, smoking, alcoholism, high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia. Absolute and relative frequencies were used as summary measures. Results: 54.7% of patients were older than 70 years and 58.7% were male. Smoking was found in 87.7 % of atherothrombotic stroke and in 89.2 % of intraparenchymal hemorrhages and alcohol in 64.6 % of intraparenchymal hemorrhages. More than 80 % of the patients with ischemic and haemorrhagic stroke were hypertensive, and cardioembolic stroke was associated in 91.9 % with cardiac arrhythmia. Conclusions: Cerebrovascular disease was predominant over 70 years old and male. Ischemic strokes are more frequent than hemorrhagic ones. High blood pressure and diabetes mellitus were the most frequent risk factors for both ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes.

          Diabetes as a risk factor for stroke in women compared with men: a systematic review and meta-analysis of 64 cohorts, including 775,385 individuals and 12,539 strokes.

          Diabetes mellitus is a major cause of death and disability worldwide and is a strong risk factor for stroke. Whether and to what extent the excess risk of stroke conferred by diabetes differs between the sexes is unknown. We did a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the relative effect of diabetes on stroke risk in women compared with men. We systematically searched PubMed for reports of prospective, population-based cohort studies published between Jan 1, 1966, and Dec 16, 2013. Studies were selected if they reported sex-specific estimates of the relative risk (RR) for stroke associated with diabetes, and its associated variability. We pooled the sex-specific RRs and their ratio comparing women with men using random-effects meta-analysis with inverse-variance weighting. Data from 64 cohort studies, representing 775,385 individuals and 12,539 fatal and non-fatal strokes, were included in the analysis. The pooled maximum-adjusted RR of stroke associated with diabetes was 2·28 (95% CI 1·93-2·69) in women and 1·83 (1·60-2·08) in men. Compared with men with diabetes, women with diabetes therefore had a greater risk of stroke--the pooled ratio of RRs was 1·27 (1·10-1·46; I(2)=0%), with no evidence of publication bias. This sex differential was seen consistently across major predefined stroke, participant, and study subtypes. The excess risk of stroke associated with diabetes is significantly higher in women than men, independent of sex differences in other major cardiovascular risk factors. These data add to the existing evidence that men and women experience diabetes-related diseases differently and suggest the need for further work to clarify the biological, behavioural, or social mechanisms involved.

            Long-term prognosis after intracerebral haemorrhage: systematic review and meta-analysis.

            There is uncertainty about the long-term prognosis after spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). Therefore, we systematically reviewed the literature for studies reporting long-term survival and ICH recurrence, and their predictors. We searched Ovid Medline 1946-2011 inclusive for cohort studies of ≥50 patients reporting long-term (>30 days) outcome after ICH. Two reviewers independently extracted data from each study. We meta-analysed 1-year and 5-year survival data from population-based studies using a random effects model (and quantified inconsistency using the I2 statistic). We identified 122 eligible studies. The pooled estimate of 1-year survival was 46% (95% CI 43% to 49%; nine population-based studies (n=2408); I2=27%) and 5-year survival was 29% (95% CI 26% to 33%; three population-based studies (n=699); I2=6%). In 27 cohort studies, predictors most consistently associated with death were increasing age, decreasing Glasgow Coma Scale score, increasing ICH volume, presence of intraventricular haemorrhage, and deep/infratentorial ICH location. The annual risk of recurrent ICH varied from 1.3% to 7.4% in nine studies and this risk was higher after lobar ICH than non-lobar ICH in two of three hospital-based studies. Four studies reporting the risks of recurrent ICH and ischaemic stroke after ICH found no significant differences between these risks. Less than a half of patients with ICH survive 1 year and less than a third survive 5 years. Risks of recurrent ICH and ischaemic stroke after ICH appear similar after ICH, provoking uncertainties about the use of antithrombotic drugs.

              Alcohol intake and risk of stroke: a dose-response meta-analysis of prospective studies.

              Alcohol intake is inconsistently associated with the risk of stroke morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to summarize the evidence regarding this relationship by using a dose-response meta-analytic approach.
