摘要：
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 stroke risk; and the importance of prognosis when stroke occurs at a young age. In addition, stroke in young adults can be used as a model system for understanding stroke incidence trends, the excess stroke risk experienced by African-Americans, and novel risk factors for stroke, including the genetic basis for stroke risk.
