ABSTRACT
There are differences in the prevalence and strength of risk factors in women, along with sex-specific risk factors such as pregnancy. Women have a higher lifetime risk of stroke compared to men, with worse outcomes including higher rates of death and disability. We have made strides in the identification of sex-specific risk factors but with the paucity of sex-specific end points in clinical trials, stroke treatment and research are hindered.
