Insights
Chronic alcoholism and hypertension are significant risk factors for intracerebral hemorrhage. These, along with ECG abnormalities and increased VWF, are primary risk factors, impacting haemorheology.

Abstract:
In case-control study of 53 cases of intracerebral hemorrhage diagnosed by CT scan. Significant risk factors were chronic alcoholism (P less than 0.05), history of hypertension, fundus arteriosclerosis, aorta atherosclerosis, electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities, high blood triglycerides, hyperviscosity, hyper-plasma viscosity, hyperfibrinogenemia and increased VWF (P less than 0.01 or P less than 0.001). After principal component analysis hyperviscosity, hypertension, coronary heart disease, ECG abnormalities, chronic alcoholism, and increased VWF were selected as primary risk factors (accumulative contributed rates 59.84%). Alcoholism, EXG abnormalities, aorta atherosclerosis correlates significantly with haemorheology.
