Current Concepts of Cerebrovascular Disease — Stroke Oral Contraceptives and Stroke
IN 1962 LORENTZ described a 41-year-old woman who had an ischemic stroke while taking oral contraceptives. By 1970, 93 cases of ischemic strokes in young women using oral contraceptives had been reported. Establishing that a common exposure, oral contraceptives, causes a rare outcome, stroke, is methodologically challenging. Experimental studies with random allocation of subjects are not possib...

متن کاملProthrombotic conditions, oral contraceptives, and the risk of ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND The role of inherited prothrombotic conditions, including factor V Leiden (FV G1691A), prothrombin G20210A, and the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T genotype, in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke is not well established. The effects of these factors may be potentiated by the use of oral contraceptives, analogous to observations in venous thrombosis. METHODS Patie...
متن کاملRisk of Arterial Thrombosis in Relation to Oral Contraceptives (RATIO) study: oral contraceptives and the risk of ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Epidemiological studies have shown an increased risk of venous thrombosis in women taking third-generation oral contraceptives, ie, those containing the progestogens desogestrel or gestodene. This study assesses the risk of ischemic stroke with several types of oral contraceptives. METHODS A multicenter, population-based, case-control study was performed in 9 Dutch cent...
متن کاملIschemic stroke risk with oral contraceptives: A meta-analysis.
CONTEXT The relationship between ischemic stroke and oral contraceptive (OC) use has been studied for 40 years, but disagreement about an association persists. OBJECTIVE To review available literature to determine whether OC use is associated with increased stroke risk. DATA SOURCES Studies published from January 1960 through November 1999 were identified from electronic databases (MEDLINE,...
