ABSTRACT
Objectives:
This study investigated the clinical effect of a drinking habit in acute stroke patients.

Methods :
409 acute stroke patients were included from October 2005 to October 2006. Patients were hospitalized within 14 days after the onset of stroke at DongGuk University International Hospital, Kyungwon University In-cheon Oriental Medical Hospital, or Department of Cardiovascular and Neurologic Diseases (Stroke Center), Kyung Hee University Oriental Hospital. We investigated general characteristics, drinking habit, and stroke subtype by TOAST classification.

Results:
Among drinking subjects, hemorrhagic stroke was more frequent than ischemic stroke (odds ratio 3.04), and less in small vessel occlusion than others (odds ratio 1.84). Ischemic stroke was associated with a longer (30 yrs) drinking habit than hemorrhagic stroke.

Conclusions:
To acquire more concrete conclusions on this theme, we need further and larger scale research.
Key words: stroke, risk factor, drinking habit, stroke subtype, TOAST
