[Morbidity and mortality from stroke among the population of Moscow].
The paper is concerned with the data on the brain stroke incidence and lethality among the population aged 25-64 years in 3 districts of Moscow during 1985. The rate of brain stroke was noted to be increased with age without any essential differences in the indicators in men and women. Comparison of the results of the investigation with the data of the Register, carried out in one of the districts of Moscow during 1972-1973 did not reveal any changes in both the disease incidence and lethality due to brain stroke. The rise of the calls on ambulances and emergency medical service for acute derangement of brain circulation is explained by the authors by a possible growth of the number of the disease cases among senile patients or by aging of the population of Moscow.
