Ischaemic stroke occurs most often during the morning hours before noon. In recent studies the peak time of onset has been between 10.00 and 12.00 hours. Snoring every night or almost every night (habitual snoring) is in relation with ischaemic stroke. Snoring occasionally, on the contrary, is not
The association of snoring with ischaemic heart disease and stroke was studied prospectively in 4388 men aged 40-69. The men were asked, in a questionnaire sent to them, whether they snored habitually, frequently, occasionally, or never. Hospital records and death certificates were checked for the
In a case-controlled study we recruited 400 patients admitted to hospital with stroke and 400 community controls matched for age, gender and family practitioner. Snoring history was obtained from 326 patients and 345 controls. Odds ratio for admission to hospital with stroke was 3.2 (95 per cent
Previous reports have shown an association between snoring and stroke but it is not clear whether this reflects confounding factors nor whether the association is attributable to obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). We performed a case-control study of 181 patients admitted to hospital with first-ever
OBJECTIVE
To ascertain whether objectively measured snoring increases mortality, cardiovascular disease, or stroke risk over the effects of obstructive sleep apnea and other established risk factors.
METHODS
Community-based cohort.
METHODS
400 residents of the Western Australian town of
BACKGROUND
A number of studies have demonstrated an association between habitual snoring and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Control for the influence of potential confounders has been inadequate. To clarify the issue we examined the association between snoring and future risk of ischaemic
Background: The relation of snoring to risks of stroke and other major cardiovascular (CV) events is uncertain.
Research question: We aimed to determine associations of snoring
BACKGROUND
It is reported that 13% to 44% of all cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs) occur during sleep. In addition to other well-known risk factors, snoring, sleep apnea, obesity, and daytime sleepiness have been shown to significantly increase the risk of stroke. We describe two cases that support
BACKGROUND
Ascertaining self-reported information about the risk for pre-stroke obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the acute stroke period is challenging as many stroke patients have deficits that hinder communication. We examined agreement between stroke patients without communication limitations and
