title: [The incidence of stroke risk factors depending on lateralization of damage].
abstract: The article devotes to study the incidence of stroke risk factors (SRF) in patients suffered from ischemic stroke taking into consideration the lateralization of damage focus. 322 cases of semispherical ischemic insult have been the study material in Khorezm region of Uzbekistan. There have been compared two groups: first--176 patients with left semispherical insult (LSI); second--146 patients with right semispherical insult (RSI). Study results showed that the incidence of SRF depended on lateralization of damage focus in semispherical ischemic insult: SRF occurred more frequently in RSI than in LSI. We revealed much more apt to smoking and alcohol drinks addiction in patients with RSI, at that time many patients gave up their harmful habits after LSI, but the patients with RSI did not refuse their bad habits but even started going on them. Therefore, we concluded that RSI is to be more dangerous risk factor of recurrent ischemic insults than LSI. Thus, secondary prevention of cerebral insult is to carry out with taking into consideration lateralization of damage focus that permits to reduce significantly the number of recurrent insult cases.
