Meta-Analysis of Risk Factors for Intracerebral Hemorrhage in General Population / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

To investigate the risk factors for intracerebral hemorrhage in general population.Methods:The related research was searched through English Medical Current Contents (EMCC),China Hospital Knowledge Database (CHKD),MEDLINE,and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM).The search terms were intracerebral hemorrhage,factor,and case-control study or cohort study.Results:There were 8 literatures with original data were in accordance with the inclusion criteria.All the data could not be combined because there were some differences in counting and metrology in the risk factors included in all the studies.Hypertension,family history of cerebrovascular disease,high salt diet,alcohol consumption,diabetes mellitus,high diastolic pressure,high systolic pressure,smoking,snoring disease,and increased weighted mean difference of body mass index (BMI) (95% confidence interval) were 5.71 (4.00-6.79),3.54 (2.44-5.14),2.58 (1.94-3.43),2.80 (2.29-3.43),2.78 (1.83-4.23,1.90 (1.35-2.70),17.76 (16.60-18.92),30.43 (28.61-32.25),5.42 (5.15-5.70),1.90 (1.34-2.69),6.88 (4.61-10.26,and 5.42 (5.15-5.70),respectively.There were significant differences between the patient groups and control groups among the above indexes (all P<0.000 01).Conclusions:The risk factors for intracerebral hemorrhage include hypertension,family history of cerebrovascular disease,high salt diet,smoking,alcohol consumption,snoring disease,diabetes mellitus,overweight,high diastolic blood pressure,high systolic blood pressure and increased BMI.
