“…The high prevalence in the current study is related to the prevalence of this vice in rural Kenya45,48. Cigarette smoking causes endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, insulin resistance, alteration in lipid profile, hemodynamic stress, hypercoagulable state and oxidative stress, all of which contribute to vasomotor dysfunction and atherothrombosis49,50. Health campaigns to promote smoking cessation will help reduce the risk of stroke.…”

“…However, there is no evidence that the incidence of deep vein thrombosis in plasma donors is increased compared to a comparable population with the same age, gender, and contraceptive medication intake. Considering case reports of myocardial or cerebral infarcts by arterial thromboses, the incidence of severe cardiovascular diseases was even lower in donors of plasma than in the general population …”

“…[12][13][14] Intracranial arterial thrombosis leading to stroke is reported in two cases with underlying prothrombin gene mutation and raised Von Willebrand antigen and C-reactive Protein (CRP). 15 This indicates that presence of underlying coagulation pathway defects increases the risk of thrombosis following plasma donation. Large volume apheresis leading to cerebral infarction has also been reported but with underlying inherited thrombophilia.…”
