ABSTRACT
Cerebrovascular disease is still considered a serious health problem in Japanese rural areas. The rate of death from the disease is very high. Many clinical and epidemiological studies have been conducted so far. However, they have failed to come up with answers effective for prediction and prevention of the scourge.<BR>As part of the agricultural coop commissioned research project entitled “Study of Cerebral Apoplexy Its Prediction and Prevention, ” we took a questionnaire survey in 1985-86, to obtain data as regards patients' subjective symptoms, electrocardiographic observations, hematological findings and many others before the onset of cerebral apoplexy. Five medical research institutes affiliated with the national welfare federation of agricultural cooperatives responded to our questionnaire.<BR>As a result, the subjective symptoms that showed stochastically significant increases from one year to three months before the onset of the disease as a whole were fatigue, forgetfulness and insomnia. When it comes to cerebrovascular infarction, shortness of breath, angina, forgetfulness, and nocturia were particularly notable.<BR>All these symptoms are not peculiar to cerebral apoplexy, but it should be noted that these are the warning signals of the killer disease.
