通过查阅全球疾病负担研究数据库、复习文献的方法收集2007—2017年中国脑卒中流行病学特征，采用描述性流行病学方法对中国脑卒中特征进行分析。结果显示，2007—2017年中国脑卒中流行趋势主要表现为缺血性脑卒中发病率、患病率持续升高，而出血性脑卒中发病率、患病率呈现降低趋势，脑卒中死亡率总体呈下降趋势；我国脑卒中流行特征主要表现为发病年轻化，男性发病率、患病率及死亡率高于女性，农村高于城市，北部地区高于南部地区。近十年我国缺血性脑卒中发病率、患病率相比前十年增速明显，考虑与居民不良生活方式、不健康饮食习惯相关。因此，政府应大力倡导良好的生活方式与饮食习惯。此外，我国农村地区脑卒中发病率、患病率及死亡率明显高于城市。因此，加强农村地区脑卒中防控应是今后工作的重点。

The epidemiological characteristics of stroke in China from 2007 to 2017 were collected by consulting the global burden of disease research database and reviewing the literature, and descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the characteristics of stroke in China. The results showed that, from 2007 to 2017, the prevalence trend of stroke in China mainly showed that the incidence and prevalence of ischemic stroke continued to increase, while the incidence and prevalence of hemorrhagic stroke showed a decreasing trend, and the overall mortality of stroke showed a decreasing trend. The epidemic characteristics of stroke in China are as follows: the younger-onset tendency; In terms of incidence, prevalence and mortality, more patients in males than that in females, more in rural areas than that in urban areas, and more in northern areas than in southern areas. In the most recent decade, the incidence and prevalence of ischemic stroke in China have increased significantly with lower average age at onset compared with those ten years ago, which were considered to be related to unhealthy lifestyle, such as dietary habits. The government should strongly advocate good lifestyle and dietary habits. In addition, the incidence, prevalence and mortality of stroke were significantly higher in rural areas than that in urban areas. Therefore, strengthening the prevention and control of stroke in rural areas should be the key of future work.
