10 33 However, this proportion was in accordance with the China Acute Cerebrovascular Events Register’s (CACER-I) study, reporting that ischaemic stroke cases were increasing, whereas intracerebral haemorrhage showed a decreasing trend. 34 The decrease in haemorrhagic stroke may be related to the improvement in hypertension control, as approximately 50% of acute haemorrhagic strokes can be attributed to hypertension in the Chinese population. 8 In the present population based survey, we found that the prevalence rates of dyslipidaemia, smoking and hypertension were ranked as the top three cerebrovascular risk factors, with rates of 62.1%, 61.8% and 57.3%, respectively.
