Coffee Consumption and Stroke Risk: Evidence from a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of more than 2.4 Million Men and Women
Stroke remains the leading cause of disability and mortality globally. Based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016, it was estimated that there were 13.7 million new stroke cases, 5.5 million deaths, 80.1 million prevalent cases, and 116.4 million disability-adjusted life-years.1 About 75% of stroke cases are ischemic, whereas the remaining cases are hemorrhagic.2 Stroke incidence increases with age. Well-known risk factors for stroke include personal history of hypertension, diabetes and cardiac diseases, unhealthy behavioral factors (heavy cigarette consumption, less physical inactivity, poor diet), and serious environmental risks.

Coffee and tea consumption and the risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage: a meta-analysis
SAH is a subversive type of stroke that has a mortality rate of almost 50% [1, 2]. Approximately 10% of patients die during the prehospital period, and survivors often suffer long-term neurological or cognitive impairments due to the original hemorrhage and rehemorrhage despite the development of novel treatment strategies [3 –5]. Therefore, clarifying the risk factors of SAH remains important. Except for the most common risk factors of SAH, including hypertension, smoking, and heavy alcohol intake, the relation between diet and SAH has been a recent concern [6].
