{ "description": "<p>Background: Globally, stroke appears as a major cause of preventable death and disability.<br>\nIn Ethiopia, the intra-hospital mortality of stroke is significant and there is scarcity of<br>\nepidemiologic data whether there is a difference in the overall survival time between<br>\nhypertensive and non-hypertensive adult stroke patients admitted in specialized hospitals.<br>\nObjectives: To determine the survival of stroke patients according to their hypertension<br>\nstatus admitted in Ayder Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Northern Ethiopia from<br>\nMarch 1, 2012 to February 28, 2019.<br>\nMethods: A facility-based retrospective cohort study conducted among all cohorts of<br>\nconfirmed first-ever stroke patients admitted in Ayder Comprehensive Specialized Hospital,<br>\nNorthern Ethiopia. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis applied to estimate the survival<br>\nprobability of hypertensive and non-hypertensive first ever stroke patients. Cox proportional<br>\nhazards regression model used to determine the adjusted hazard ratio of death for each main<br>\nbaseline predictor variable, with 95% CI and P-value <0.05 was used to declare statistical<br>\nsignificance. The assumptions of Cox proportional hazards regression model assessed by the<br>\nglobal test, Schoenfeld residuals</p>", "license": "http://www.opendefinition.org/licenses/cc-by", "creator": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "ZENAWI HAGOS GUFUE" } ], "headline": "SURVIVAL OF STROKE PATIENTS ACCORDING TO HYPERTENSION STATUS IN NORTHERN ETHIOPIA", "image": "https://zenodo.org/static/img/logos/zenodo-gradient-round.svg", "datePublished": "2019-07-01", "url": "https://nadre.ethernet.edu.et/record/2580", "@context": "https://schema.org/", "identifier": "https://doi.org/10.20372/nadre:2580", "@id": "https://doi.org/10.20372/nadre:2580", "@type": "ScholarlyArticle", "name": "SURVIVAL OF STROKE PATIENTS ACCORDING TO HYPERTENSION STATUS IN NORTHERN ETHIOPIA" }
