Background: Ischemic stroke is more commonly occurs in smokersObjective: The purpose of the present study was to estimate the risk of smoking with ischemic stroke in Bangladesh. Methodology: This case control study was carried out in the Department of Biochemistry at Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, Bangladesh from January 2014 to December 2014. Thepatients presented with ischemic stroke, age ranges from 18 to 65 years of both sexes were taken as cases. Age and sex matched healthy individuals were selected as controls. History was taken from both cases and controls regarding smoking habit and duration of smoking. Results: Inthis study 42% of case group and 11% control group were smoker (p=0.032) and the mean duration of smoking was 22.14±10.58 years and 4.45±2.58 years for those groups respectively. The odd ratio (OR) was 2.56(95%.0718 to 6.1501). Conclusions: Smoking is significantly associated with ischemic stroke.
