  1. Logistic regression performed with the three groups of sex, ethnicity, and age - comparing stroke subtype risk against all other stroke subtypes combined. The results for sex and controlled by ethnicity and age. The results for ethnicity are controlled by sex and age. The results for age are controlled by sex and ethnicity. Significant results are bolded
