Changes in caregiver burden among informal caregivers of stroke patients in Mongolia.
This study aimed to define the changes in CGB in the first year of caregiving among the caregivers of stroke patients and to identify associated factors. METHODS: A prospective, multi-centered observational study was conducted in nine public hospitals in Mongolia. We used the Montgomery CGB Scale for assessing CGB, and repeated the assessment after 1 year. Stroke patient characteristics were included in the analyses. Multinomial logistic regressions were conducted to analyze changes in CGB. RESULTS: A paired t-test analysis revealed that demand burden increased (from 12.61 to 11.50, p = 0.034), whereas stress ...

Is There a Stroke Belt in China and Why? Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— A stroke belt of high stroke incidence exists in 9 provincial regions of north and west China. The stroke belt may be caused, at least in part, by a higher population prevalence of hypertension and excess body weight. Lowering blood pressure and body weight in the stroke belt may reduce the geographic disparity in stroke risk and incidence in China.

Hypertension, alcohol drinking and stroke incidence: a population-based prospective cohort study among inner Mongolians in China
Conclusion:These findings suggest that hypertension is an independent risk factor of stroke in Inner Mongolians. Drinkers with hypertension seem to be more susceptible to stroke; larger-sample prospective cohort studies are still required to examine the cumulative effect of drinking and hypertension on stroke incidence.

Smoking, Heart Rate, and Ischemic Stroke: A Population-Based Prospective Cohort Study Among Inner Mongolians in China Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Our study indicated that smoking was an independent risk factor of ischemic stroke, and smokers with faster heart rate had the highest risk of ischemic stroke among Inner Mongolians. These findings suggest that smoking status and heart rate may be valuable in predicting ischemic stroke incidence.

Smoking, Hypertension, and Their Combined Effect on Ischemic Stroke Incidence: A Prospective Study among Inner Mongolians in China: Methodological and Statistical Issues
We read the study conducted by Huangfu et  al that was published in the Journal of Stroke& Cerebrovascular Diseases enthusiastically and meticulously.1 The authors tried to examine the combined effect of smoking and hypertension on ischemic stroke incidence over a 10-year follow-up among Inner Mongolians in China. The article provides interesting results; however, we think some methodological issues should be considered to avoid misinterpretation.

Utility of < em > China < /em > -PAR stroke equations for predicting 10-year stroke risk in the rural Inner Mongolian population in China
CONCLUSION: The China-PAR stroke equations have potential predictive ability for 10-year stroke risk in the rural Inner Mongolian women, while it might not suit the rural Inner Mongolian men well. The performance of China-PAR stroke equations in other ethnic groups in China will need to be further evaluated.PMID:35758218 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2022.2089833

Lipid Accumulation Product and Hypertension Related to Stroke: a 9.2-Year Prospective Study Among Mongolians in China.
CONCLUSIONS: The present study showed that high LAP was associated with an increased risk of future stroke, and hypertensives with high LAP had the highest risk of stroke among Inner Mongolians. These findings indicate that LAP and hypertension may be valuable to predict and prevent stroke incidence. PMID: 26797267 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Combined effects of family history of CVD and heart rate on ischemic stroke incidence among Inner Mongolians in China.
This study aimed to evaluate the combined effects of family history of cardiovascular diseases (FHCVD) and heart rate on ischemic stroke incidence among Inner Mongolians in China. METHODS: A prospective cohort study was conducted among 2589 participants aged 20 years and older from Inner Mongolia, China. The participants were divided into four groups according to status of FHCVD and heart rate and followed up from June 2002 to July 2012. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the combined effects of FHCVD and heart rate on the incidence of ischemic stroke. RESULTS: A total of 76 ischemic stroke occu...

Clustering of cardiovascular risk factors and stroke: a prospective cohort study in Inner Mongolia.
CONCLUSION: The clustering of CVRFs increased the risk of stroke. On the basis of FHCVD, the clustering of hypertension with other CVRFs and the clustering of diabetes with tachycardia had higher predictive value for stroke than other cluster. PMID: 27730847 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
