Abstract

Background and purpose: Although poor prognosis after intracerebral haemorrhage relates to risk factors and haematoma characteristics, there is limited evidence for the effect of race-ethnicity.
Methods: Data from 1011 patients with intracerebral haemorrhage enrolled into hyperacute trials and randomised to control were obtained from the Virtual International Stroke Trials Archive (VISTA) and Efficacy of Nitric Oxide in Stroke (ENOS) Trial. Clinical characteristics and functional outcome were compared among three racial groups – Asians, Blacks and Caucasians.
Results: The majority of patients were Caucasian (78.1%) followed by Asians (14.5%) and Blacks (5.5%). At baseline, Caucasians were older and had larger haematoma volumes; Blacks had lower Glasgow Coma Scale and higher systolic blood pressure (all p
