Background The prevalence of hypertension in patients with intracranial aneurysms has
been an increased concern, but it is not well understood if uncontrolled hypertension has …

Aim. To identify the risk factors for clinical and radiographic grades of subarachnoid
haemorrhage (SAH) in small (< 5 mm) intracranial aneurysms (SIAs). Material and methods …

Introduction: Lifetime risk of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) is high (7%) in
persons⩾ 35 years with hypertension who smoke (d). Whether screening for intracranial …

Background: In spite of its common occurrence, the factors predictive of the rupture of
intracranial aneurysms (IAs) remain poorly defined. Method: A retrospective analysis of …

Background and Purpose—Decrease in the incidence of subarachnoid hemorrhage over
the past decades has been related to decreased smoking rates, especially among< 50-year …

Objective The role of hypertension as a major risk factor for the development and rupture of
cerebral aneurysms is a subject of considerable debate. Methods In order to substantiate or …

to 1.7%) was similar to that of smaller previously published patient series (1% to 3%) and
remained almost constant for decades. Significant risk factors for aneurysm rupture were …

OBJECTIVE: Risk factors that predispose to the formation of multiple intracranial aneurysms,
which are present in up to 34% of patients with intracranial aneurysms, are not well defined …

Object The authors of recent reports have suggested that smaller aneurysms are associated
with more extensive sub-arachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), which could potentially presage …

Background and purpose The purpose of this study was to identify the risk factors
predisposing to aneurysm rupture and to provide a reliable estimation for likelihood of …
