Abstract:
Stroke is the leading cause of death and disability among adults in China, bringing great economic burden to the families of patients and society. An increasing number of studies have shown that, in addition to traditional risk factors, social factors also play an undeniable role in the occurrence and development, timeliness of medical treatment, outcomes, and mortality of stroke. This article reviews the relationship between socioeconomic factors, other social factors (such as personal social networks) and stroke.
