A case-control study on stroke was carried out in 1985 in conjunction with a prevalence survey on neurologic disorders in 22 rural communities of the People's Republic of China. 585 cases of stroke, detected from the survey, together with an equal number of matched controls were investigated. The statistically significant factors associated with stroke in this study were: hypertension (history, findings at examination); high salt intake; family member(s) with cerebrovascular disease and/or hypertension; heart disease (history, abnormal findings at examination); history of transient ischemic attacks, and arteriosclerotic funduscopic findings. These factors were analyzed separately for hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes.
