Abstract
The effect of stroke as a major health issue in the United States is w ell established. Well-designed epidemiologic studies have contributed important information about the natural history of stroke and its asso ciated risk factors. These cerebrovascular profiles have provided the foundation for many of the current ischemic stroke trials, but the cau se and prevention of the hemorrhagic subtypes remain elusive.
