The epidemiology of stroke in young adults has been a relatively neglected area of study considering its relative prevalence in clinical practice; the relationship of oral contraceptive use, pregnancy, and migraine to stock risk; and the importance of prognosis when stroke occurs at a young age. In addition, stroke in your adult scan be used as a model system for understanding stroke incidence trends, the excess stroke risk experienced by African-American, and novel risk factors for stroke, including the genetic basis for stroke risk.
考虑到中风在临床实践中的相对患病率、口服避孕药使用、妊娠和偏头痛与中风风险的关系以及年轻时发生中风时预后的重要性，年轻成年人中风的流行病学一直是一个相对被忽视的研究领域。此外，年轻成年人中风可用作一个模型系统，以了解中风发病率趋势、非裔美国人经历的额外中风风险以及中风的新风险因素，包括中风风险的遗传基础。
