Abstract

Background: Management of modifiable risk factors is the mainstay for the prevention of recurrent stroke. Our objective was to investigate trends in vascular risk factor (hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and smoking) control among community-dwelling U.S. adults with prior stroke. Methods: We performed analyses of 1999-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) participants with self-reported history of stroke. Meeting guideline-recommended targets for post-stroke risk factor control was defined as follows: hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)
