Influence of age on the association of vascular risk factors with acute stroke (INTERSTROKE): a case–control study
Background
The absolute burden of stroke is increasing due to an ageing population, as well as an increased incidence of stroke in young adults. We aimed to determine whether age modifies the magnitude of association between vascular risk factors and stroke in the INTERSTROKE study.
Methods
INTERSTROKE is an international case–control study of risk factors for first acute stroke. Cases and controls (matched by age and sex) were recruited in 32 countries (between Jan 11, 2007, and Aug 8, 2015). Participants completed a clinical assessment and provided blood and urine samples within 72 h of recruitment. Odds ratios (ORs) for vascular risk factors and their population attributable fractions (PAFs) were calculated among age groups. We tested for an interaction of age by each risk factor.
Findings
Among 26 950 participants, the mean age of cases was 62·2 years (SD 13·6) and of controls 61·3 years (13·3). Increasing age was associated with a significant increased prevalence for seven vascular risk factors (hypertension, physical inactivity, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, high waist-to-hip ratio, high apolipoprotein B concentration [p<0·0001 for all], and obesity [p=0·016]), reduced prevalence for four vascular risk factors (smoking, alcohol use, psychosocial stress [p<0·0001 for all], and unhealthy diet [p=0·0081]) and unchanged prevalence for one vascular risk factor (depression). Increasing age was associated with a reduced magnitude of OR of stroke for hypertension (pinteraction<0·0001), high apolipoprotein B concentration (pinteraction<0·001), high waist-to-hip ratio (pinteraction 0·011), alcohol use (pinteraction<0·0001), and psychosocial stress (pinteraction=0·033). No vascular risk factor was associated with a higher odds of stroke with increased age. Hypertension, high waist-to-hip ratio, and physical inactivity accounted for the largest PAF among all age groups.
Interpretation
Vascular risk factors exhibit different patterns of association with stroke by age, with consequent variations in their relative PAF. This information could be used to prioritise risk factor screening and modification by age group.

期刊介绍:
The Lancet Healthy Longevity, a gold open-access journal, focuses on clinically-relevant longevity and healthy aging research. It covers early-stage clinical research on aging mechanisms, epidemiological studies, and societal research on changing populations. The journal includes clinical trials across disciplines, particularly in gerontology and age-specific clinical guidelines. In line with the Lancet family tradition, it advocates for the rights of all to healthy lives, emphasizing original research likely to impact clinical practice or thinking. Clinical and policy reviews also contribute to shaping the discourse in this rapidly growing discipline.
