We studied 1,273 patients with ischemic cerebral infarction who were
entered into the Stroke Data Bank, a prospective, observational study
involving four university hospitals and the Biometry and Field Studies
Branch of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke.
Forty patients had noniatrogenic recurrent stroke within 30 days after the
index cerebral infarction. Using life tables, the 30-day cumulative +/- SE
risk of early recurrence for all infarctions was 3.3 +/- 0.4%. The risk of
early recurrence was greatest for atherothrombotic infarction (7.9 +/-
2.2%, eight of 113 patients) and least for lacunar infarction (2.2 +/-
1.2%, eight of 337 patients). Both cardioembolic infarction (4.3 +/- 0.9%,
10 of 246 patients) and infarction of undetermined cause (3.0 +/- 0.5%, 14
of 508 patients) had intermediate risks. History of hypertension and
diabetes mellitus, as well as diastolic hypertension and elevated blood
sugar concentration at admission, were associated with early recurrence.
Logistic regression analysis estimated the risk of early recurrence to be
8.56% in those with coexisting hypertension and a glucose concentration of
300 mg/dl versus 0.77% in the absence of these two abnormalities. Early
recurrence was associated with longer median duration of initial hospital
stay (27 vs. 14 days) and a higher 30-day case-fatality rate (20% vs.
7.4%). Increased weakness scores were associated with early recurrent
stroke. Identification of the determinants of early recurrent stroke may
lead to better secondary prevention and may help select high- risk patients
for further study.
