Epidemiology of Ischemic Stroke in Patients With Diabetes
Abstract
Objective Diabetes is a well known risk factor for stroke, but the impact of diabetes on stroke incidence rates is not known. This study uses a population-based study to describe the epidemiology of ischemic stroke in diabetic patients. Research design and methods Hospitalized cases were ascertained by ICD-9 discharge codes, prospective screening of emergency department admission logs, and review of coroner's cases. A sampling scheme was used to ascertain cases in the out-of-hospital setting. All potential cases underwent detailed chart abstraction by study nurses followed by physician review. Diabetes-specific incidence rates, case fatality rates, and population-attributable risks were estimated. Results Ischemic stroke patients with diabetes are younger, more likely to be African American, and more likely to have hypertension, myocardial infarction, and high cholesterol than nondiabetic patients. Age-specific incidence rates and rate ratios show that diabetes increases ischemic stroke incidence at all ages, but this risk is most prominent before age 55 in African Americans and before age 65 in whites. One-year case fatality rates after ischemic stroke are not different between those patients with and without diabetes. Conclusions Given the "epidemic" of diabetes, with substantially increasing diabetes prevalence each year across all age- and race/ethnicity groups, the significance of diabetes as a risk factor for stroke is becoming more evident. Diabetes is clearly one of t…

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
