The following factors were significantly associated with brain infarction: elevated blood pressure, cardiac abnormalities, elevated blood glucose content, abnormal glucose tolerance, elevated blood cholesterol and beta-lipoproteid content and hemoglobin level. It was concluded that at present the key to stroke prevention is the early detection and control of hypertension and cardiac activity impairment.
