![]() 2021 guideline for the prevention of stroke in patients with stroke and transient ischemic attack: a guideline from the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association. 1 Kleindorfer DO, Towfighi A, Chaturvedi S, Cockroft KM, Gutierrez J, Lombardi‐Hill D, Kamel H, Kernan WN, Kittner SJ, Leira EC.Trend analyses showed a small but significant increase in antihypertensive use over time among urban ( P=0.033) but not rural stroke survivors ( P=0.587). Antihypertensive use was similar between rural and urban stroke survivors in unadjusted and adjusted analyses (>90% in both populations). Lifestyle characteristics were similar between rural and urban residents except for higher smoking prevalence among rural residents. Our study included 82 175 individuals (36.4% rural residents). Survey‐weighted logistic regression was used to calculate unadjusted and adjusted (sociodemographic and lifestyle factors) odds ratios for antihypertensive use by year. Separate trend analyses were used to detect changes in use over time. We ascertained the survey‐weighted prevalence of reported antihypertensive use and lifestyle characteristics (ie, physical activity, diabetes, cholesterol, body mass index, and smoking) among respondents with hypertension in odd years over this period by rural/urban residence. ![]() US stroke survivors with hypertension were identified in the 2005 to 2019 national Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System surveys.
