Objective  To explore the association between cough patterns and cerebrovascular disease risk, and to provide epidemiological evidence for the early diagnosis and prevention of cerebrovascular disease. Methods  During the period from 2010 to 2012 in Guizhou Province, a multi-stage proportional stratified cluster sampling method was used to recruit people with the inclusion criteria of the study into a cohort and a baseline questionnaire for demographic information, lifestyle, and disease history was administered. The incidence of cerebrovascular disease was followed up from 2016 to 2020. Results  A total of 4804 subjects were followed up, and 4589 (53.5% were female) subjects were enrolled in final investigation. Compared with non-chronic cough group, there was no statistical significance in the risk of cerebrovascular diseases (P>0.05), however, chronic cough (the risk ratio was 2.00 and the 95% confidence interval ranged from 1.08 to 3.69) was twice as likely to develop cerebrovascular disease as non-cough. Conclusions  People with chronic cough are more likely to develop cerebrovascular disease than people without cough. More attention to the management and control of cough should be paid to avoid chronic cough, so as to reduce the risk of cerebrovascular diseases.
