概要 Objective In recent decades, living conditions have changed drastically. However, there are few data regarding the interaction between living conditions and the risk of ischemic stroke (IS) in young adults. The present study explored the association between living conditions or marital status and the risk factors, etiology, and outcome of IS in young adults. Methods We prospectively enrolled patients with incident IS who were 20-49 years old from 37 clinical stroke centers. We collected the demographic data, living conditions, marital status, vascular risk factors, disease etiology, treatment, and outcomes at discharge. A comparison group was established using the official statistics of Japan. We categorized patients into the two groups based on living conditions: solitary group and cohabiting group. Clinical characteristics were then compared between living conditions. Results In total, 303 patients were enrolled (224 men; median age at the onset: 44 years old). Significant factors associated with the incidence of IS were as follows: solitary status, body mass index >30 kg/m2, current smoking, heavy alcohol consumption, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia. Furthermore, in the solitary group, the proportions of men, unmarried individuals, and current smokers were significantly higher than in the cohabiting group. In addition, poor outcomes (modified Ranking Scale ≥ 4) of IS were more common in the solitary group than in the cohabiting group. Conclusion Our study showed that not only conventional vascular risk factors but also living conditions, especially living alone while unmarried, were independent risk factors for IS in young adults.
