The   main    object   of  the  study is  to  evaluate  the   epidemiological     specifications of strokes and the abundance of strokes in diabetic patients     in Sina Hospital Hamadan during 1995 to 1998.          From   1320   cases   of  strokes , there were 50 diabetic patients. In   the      study    we   noticed   that   most   of  the  patients   were NIDDM (94%)and     female (60%). The  most  common  age  for  the  occurance   of   stroke  in     diabetic  patients    was  55 - 75  years   old  and only 4% of  patients  were     45 - 55 years  old .  In  comparison study most of the cases  were  ischemic     (72%)  rather  than  hemorrhagic (28%) ones.  There  were  not  meaningful     relationship   between  the   duration  of  diabet  and  the   occurance   of      strokes .  There  were  not meaningful  relationship   between   the   rate of      blood  glucose  at   the  time of the admittion and  the   occurance of the     strokes.
