Antecedent sedative use is independently associated with stroke occurrence among west Africans: Evidence from the SIREN case-control study
Background
Several factors have been independently associated with stroke occurrence globally. However, the association between sedative use and stroke risk is yet to be established in West Africa.
Objective
To assess the association between sedatives and stroke among West Africans.
Methods
Adults aged ≥18 years with confirmed stroke as well as age- and sex-matched controls were enrolled into the Stroke Investigative Research and Education Network (SIREN) study. Sedative use was determined by retrospective assessment on the use of any type of sedative in the preceding year while stroke was confirmed with brain scan and clinical features. Univariate and multivariate analyses, using logistic regressions, were performed to establish associations between sedative use and stroke while adjusting for other stroke risk factors.
Results
A total of 7104 subjects (3553 stroke cases and 3551 stroke-free controls participated in this study. The mean age was 60.9 ± 0.78 among cases and 59.8 ± 11.44 years among controls (p < 0.029). History of sedative use was more common in cases (7.7 %) compared to controls (4.3 %; p < 0.001). After adjusting for age, income >$100, history of hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidaemia, tobacco & alcohol use, physical inactivity, green leafy vegetable and meat consumption, sedative use was independently associated with stroke risk (aOR: 1.41; 95 %CI: 1.01–1.96; p < 0.041). Sedative use was associated with higher odds of stroke among adults aged ≥50 years (aOR: 1.53; 95 %CI: 1.28–2.04; p < 0.019).
Conclusion
Sedative use was independently associated with stroke risk among adults in West Africa. Its use requires further exploration and prospective study to address the emerging association with stroke occurrence.
期刊介绍:
eNeurologicalSci provides a medium for the prompt publication of original articles in neurology and neuroscience from around the world. eNS places special emphasis on articles that: 1) provide guidance to clinicians around the world (Best Practices, Global Neurology); 2) report cutting-edge science related to neurology (Basic and Translational Sciences); 3) educate readers about relevant and practical clinical outcomes in neurology (Outcomes Research); and 4) summarize or editorialize the current state of the literature (Reviews, Commentaries, and Editorials). eNS accepts most types of manuscripts for consideration including original research papers, short communications, reviews, book reviews, letters to the Editor, opinions and editorials. Topics considered will be from neurology-related fields that are of interest to practicing physicians around the world. Examples include neuromuscular diseases, demyelination, atrophies, dementia, neoplasms, infections, epilepsies, disturbances of consciousness, stroke and cerebral circulation, growth and development, plasticity and intermediary metabolism. The fields covered may include neuroanatomy, neurochemistry, neuroendocrinology, neuroepidemiology, neurogenetics, neuroimmunology, neuroophthalmology, neuropathology, neuropharmacology, neurophysiology, neuropsychology, neuroradiology, neurosurgery, neurooncology, neurotoxicology, restorative neurology, and tropical neurology.
