Clinical characteristics of spontaneous intracranial basal ganglia hemorrhage and risk factors for hematoma expansion in the plateaus of China.

Background And Purpose: The clinical features of intracranial cerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and the risk factors for hematoma expansion (HE) have been extensively studied. However, few studies have been performed in patients who live on a plateau. The natural habituation and genetic adaptation have resulted in differences in disease characteristics.

Stroke has become a significant cause of death and disability globally. Along with the transition of the world's aging population, the incidence of acute ischemic stroke is increasing year by year. Even with effective treatment modalities, patients are not guaranteed to have a good prognosis.

Anterior Circulation Acute Ischemic Stroke in the Plateau of China: Risk Factors and Clinical Characteristics.

Background And Purpose: Acute ischemic stroke has a high incidence in the plateau of China. It has unique characteristics compared to the plains, and the specific relationship with altitude has not yet been appreciated. This study aimed to investigate the specificity of the plateau's anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke in China.
