The role of history of blood pressure and diabetes in the prevalence of stroke in Azar cohort

Introduction: The prevalence of diabetes and hypertension has been growing steadily in the last decade. These are important risk factors for stroke and the contribution of each risk factor may change due to geographical location. We conducted the present study with the aim of determining the relatio...

description Introduction: The prevalence of diabetes and hypertension has been growing steadily in the last decade. These are important risk factors for stroke and the contribution of each risk factor may change due to geographical location. We conducted the present study with the aim of determining the relationship between blood pressure and diabetes history and stroke in the population covered by the Azar Cohort. Methods: In this case control study which was a subset of Azerbaijan province study (Azar Cohort), 357 patients were divided into patients with and without a history of stroke. The two variables of hypertension and diabetes history, in these two groups were compared. Data were collected and compared with inferential statistical tests. Results: The results showed that blood pressure could increase the risk of stroke by 3.68 times (95% CI: 2.32-5.86). The history of diabetes mellitus in people with and without stroke was not statistically significant (OR=1.54; 95% CI: 0.87-2.72). Conclusion: The results of this study showed that high blood pressure is a predictor of stroke but diabetes cannot be effective in stroke in the cohort population of Azerbaijan.
