Abstract

Objective : This study was conducted to integrate the results of studies which show the relationship between risk factors(smoking, drinking, intaking coffee, exercise, BMI, family history, hypertension, DM, hyperlipidemia, heart disease, TIA) and the incidence of stroke in Korean adults. Methods : We surveyed 17 stroke-related articles, published between 1995 and 2007, and conduct meta-analysis. And we estimated common odds ratio(OR). Results : The overall OR of risk factors associated CVD were as follow : Smoking had a 2.488 OR, no regular exercise had a 1.942 OR, $BMI{\geq}25$ had a 1.848 OR, hypertension had a 6.053 OR, DM had a 2.931 OR, heart disease had a 5.455 OR, and TIA had a 5.238 OR. Conclusion : The result of this study suggest that smoking, no regular exercise, $BMI{\geq}25$, hypertension, DM, heart disease, and TIA are important risk factor of stroke.
