STROKES ON THE RISE AMONG YOUNG, MIDDLE-AGED

The AP (1/31) reports that strokes "can happen at any age, even to children - and they're on the rise among the young and middle-aged." Government data indicate that "nationwide, hospitalization rates for ischemic strokes have jumped by about a third among people ages 15 to 44 over the past decade."
