摘要
In order to investigate whether AO is an independent risk factor (RF) for IS in elderly patients > 65 yrs and its relation and co-existance with other CRF we studied 141 pts (79m, 62f) with IS in our Dept. Based on sex and age (65-74 and > 75 yrs) patients were divided into 4 groups. Body Mass Index (BMI) and Waist to Hip ratio (W/H) were determined. AO was defined as BMI > 25 and W/H > 0,85 in m and > 24 and > 0,81 in f. AO is the second more frequent RF for IS in pts> 65yrs, either as single CRF or when it coexists with others. The risk for IS increases when > 1 CRF coexists. AO and HPT are the more frequent coexisting CRF, when both of them are present the risk for IS is three times greater.
