4. Without the content of patients or their legal agents


Age minimum:
Age maximum:
Gender: Both
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Abnormal glucose regulation, acute stroke
Circulatory System
Acute stroke
Intervention(s)
All participants without a history of diabetes mellitus will be identified as having abnormal glucose regulation or not by using the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) three days before discharge. The outcome and recurrence of stroke will be compared between the patients with and without abnormal glucose regulation respectively at three months and one year after the onset of stroke as below:
1. Modified Rankin Scale (mRS)
2. The times of stroke recurrence

The current therapy measures of abnormal glucose regulation in patients with acute stroke will be observed during in-hospital and follow-up.
Primary Outcome(s)
The prevalence of abnormal glucose regulation after acute stroke in China, measured by OGTT before discharge.
Secondary Outcome(s)
1. The distribution of stroke subtypes is different in the subtypes of the abnormal glucose regulation
2. The outcome and recurrence risk of stroke in patients with or without abnormal glucose regulation
