Non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with a significant global burden
of disease, and despite being proportionally less frequent than ischemic stroke, in 2010 it …

Increasing epidemiological studies have shown that a rapid temperature change within 1
day is an independent risk factor for human health. This paper aimed to systematically …

Objective: To examine temperature in relation to stroke mortality in a multicity time series
study in China. Methods: We obtained data on daily temperature and mortality from 8 large …

Biologically plausible associations exist between climatic conditions and stroke risk, but
study results are inconsistent. We aimed to summarize current evidence on ambient …

Evidence of the impact of air temperature and pressure on cardiovascular morbidity is still
quite limited and controversial, and even less is known about the potential influence of …

Objective To examine whether high ambient temperature and diurnal temperature range
during the summer are associated with risk of stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA). Methods …

Research has shown that diurnal temperature range (DTR) is significantly associated with
mortality and morbidity in regions of Asia; however, few studies have been conducted in …

Background: Vascular disease may play an important role in the epidemiology of dementia
in countries with high stroke incidence, such as Portugal. Objective: To assess the …

Background: Despite consistent evidence of a higher short-term risk of cardiovascular
mortality associated with ambient temperature, there have been discrepant findings on the …

Observational studies focusing on absolute meteorological values suggest an association
between meteorological parameters and stroke risk but these results are inconsistent and …
