Content Highlights
Non-Hispanic black, Native Americans, Asians and pacific islanders in the U.S. are at increased risk, compared to non-Hispanic white adults, especially among those aged 35–64 years, of death from stroke. Increased mortality may result from a greater prevalence of risk factors for stroke (eg. obesity, uncontrolled hypertension, physical inactivity, poor nutrition, diabetes, and smoking) and other factors (eg. lower socioeconomic status, pre-disposition to more severe disease, and poor survival at younger ages).
