The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of stroke in a geographically defined region of Melbourne, Australia.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>\n            \u2014All suspected strokes occurring in a population of 133 816 residents in suburbs north and east of Melbourne, Australia, during a 12-month period of 1996 and 1997 were found and assessed. Multiple overlapping sources were used to ascertain cases, and standard definitions and criteria for stroke and case fatality were used.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\n            \u2014A total of 381 strokes occurred among 353 people during the study period, 276 (72%) of which were first-ever-in-a-lifetime strokes. The crude annual incidence rate (first-ever strokes) was 206 (95% CI, 182 to 231) per 100 000 per year overall, 195 (95% CI, 161 to 229) for males, and 217 (95% CI, 182 to 252) for females. The corresponding rates adjusted to the \u201cworld\u201d population were 100 (95% CI, 80 to 119) overall, 113 (95% CI, 92 to 134) for males, and 89 (95% CI, 70 to 107) for females. The 28-day case fatality rate for first-ever strokes was 20% (95% CI, 16% to 25%).\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>\n            \u2014The incidence rate of stroke in our population-based study is similar to that of many European studies but is significantly higher than that observed on the west coast of Australia.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1161\/01.str.31.9.2087","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,6,17]],"date-time":"2011-06-17T20:08:03Z","timestamp":1308341283000},"page":"2087-2092","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":132,"title":["Stroke Incidence on the East Coast of Australia"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Amanda G.","family":"Thrift","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the National Stroke Research Institute (A.G.T., H.M.D., G.A.D.) and Department of Neurology (H.M.D., R.A.L.M., G.A.D.), Austin and Repatriation Medical Center, West Heidelberg; Department of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine, Monash Medical School, Alfred Hospital, Prahran (A.G.T., J.J.M.); and Department of Medicine, University of Melbourne (R.A.L.M.), Australia."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Helen M.","family":"Dewey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the National Stroke Research Institute (A.G.T., H.M.D., G.A.D.) and Department of Neurology (H.M.D., R.A.L.M., G.A.D.), Austin and Repatriation Medical Center, West Heidelberg; Department of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine, Monash Medical School, Alfred Hospital, Prahran (A.G.T., J.J.M.); and Department of Medicine, University of Melbourne (R.A.L.M.), Australia."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Richard A.
