OBJECT The goal of this study was to explore the relationships between premorbid patient characteristics, especially cigarette smoking, and the risk of death following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). METHODS A population-based study design was used with multiple overlapping methods of case identification. A strict definition of SAH was used. Relationships between patients' age and sex as well as their cigarette smoking and hypertension statuses were explored by calculating relative risks (RRs…

Risk factors for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in patients in Izumo City, Japan.
TLDR
Hypertension was the most notable risk factor for aneurysmal SAH, regardless of age and sex, followed by cigarette smoking in younger men and hypercholesterolemia in older women and diabetes mellitus and heart disease decreased the risk of SAH.
Impact of Comorbidities and Smoking on the Outcome in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
TLDR
Smoking and hypertension seem to be predictors for a good clinical outcome after aneurysmal SAH.
Cigarette smoking and outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: a nationwide analysis.
TLDR
In this nationwide study, smokers experienced SAH at a younger age and had a greater number of comorbidities compared with nonsmokers, highlighting the negative ramifications of cigarette smoking among patients with cerebral aneurysms.
Parity and Risk of Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Women: A Nested Case-Control Study Based on National Swedish Registries
TLDR
Parity may confer a moderate long-term protective effect on the risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage in women and the biological mechanism underlying this association is currently unknown.
Editorial comment--parity and risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage: an emerging association.
TLDR
The present work by Gaist and colleagues provides the most definitive efforts to date concerning the potential (inverse) association of parity and risk of SAH.
Incidence, mortality, and risk factors for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: Prospective analyzes of the HUNT and Tromsø studies
TLDR
This prospective, population-based cohort study showed that compared with the risk in nonsmokers, the risk of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage was higher in current cigarette-smoking women than in men, which may at least partially explain the gender gap in aSAH incidence.
Incidence and mortality of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in two Norwegian cohorts, 1984–2007
TLDR
The slight increase in incidence of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage over time may be explained by differences in diagnostic procedures and case fatality remained stable during 23 years of follow-up.
Prognostic value of premorbid hypertension and neurological status in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: pooled analyses of individual patient data in the SAHIT repository.
TLDR
This study confirmed the strong prognostic effect of neurological status as measured on the WFNS scale and the independent but weak prognosticEffect of premorbid hypertension.
EFFECTS OF TOBACCO DOSE AND LENGTH OF EXPOSURE ON DELAYED NEUROLOGICAL DETERIORATION AND OVERALL CLINICAL OUTCOME AFTER ANEURYSMAL SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE
TLDR
The duration and timing of tobacco use, rather than the dose of tobacco per se, seem to be risk factors for delayed neurological deterioration after aneurysmal SAH.
Editorial. A smoker's paradox: does being a smoker really lead to a better outcome after aneurysmal SAH?
TLDR
The central finding of the study was that smoking was associated with superior outcomes after rupture on several measures, including overall clinical outcome as indicated by the NIS-SAH outcome measure (NIS-SOM).

Alcohol consumption as a risk factor for poor outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage.
TLDR
Heavy drinking impairs outcome mainly through severe rebleeding and delayed ischaemia and to a lesser extent through a poor initial condition and presence of intracerebral haematoma.
Cigarette smoking as a cause of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and risk for vasospasm: a report of the Cooperative Aneurysm Study.
TLDR
The findings of a significantly increased representation of current cigarette smokers in the study populations and significant association with younger age at the time of SAH and increased incidence of vasospasm concur with recent reports of smoking as a significant risk factor for ruptured aneurysms and subsequent vasospasms.
Cigarette smoking-induced increase in the risk of symptomatic vasospasm after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
TLDR
The authors make the novel observation that cigarette smoking increases the risk of symptomatic vasospasm after aneurysmal SAH, independent of Fisher grade.
Smoking and subarachnoid haemorrhage: a case control study.
TLDR
Smoking habits of patients with SAH were compared with age, sex and occupation matched controls and the relative risk of spontaneous aneurysmal SAH for smokers was twice that of non-smokers.
Factors influencing the outcome of aneurysm rupture in poor grade patients: a prospective series.
TLDR
A constellation of poor prognostic features will aid the neurosurgeon in treating a patient conservatively and appropriately advising relatives, and the ultimate decision on how to treat a given patient continues to depend partly on clinical judgement.
Clinical course of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage
TLDR
In this population-based series, at 1 month after the bleed, approximately one-third of patients were dead, one- third had neurologic deficits, and one-thirds were doing well.
Cigarette smoking and subarachnoid haemorrhage: a population-based case-control study.
TLDR
The so called metastatic emphysema theory with increased elastolytic activity in the serum of smokers is proposed as biochemical basis for the increased risk of subarachnoid haemorrhage.
The unchanging pattern of subarachnoid hemorrhage in a community
TLDR
Proved rebleeding occurred within 10 days of the first SAH in 20% of patients who survived until hospital admission, and survival after SAH depended on clinical grade, time after onset of SAH, and presence of intracerebral hematoma.

A retrospective study of 208 patients with ruptured cerebral aneurysms showed a highly significant excess of cigarette smokers among both men and women compared with the expected incidence. Results…
