Objectives: The objectives of this study are to evaluate: (i) the type of stroke, (ii) the size of the stroke, and (iii) severity of stroke in relation to the glycaemic status of the patients and to establish a correlation between them, and to give a guideline for preventive and on-going therapy. This study showed that haemorrhagic lesions with bigger sizes are more common among those with higher glucose levels. These patients had a higher mortality rate. The increased incidence of stroke with increasing age is also related to the deteriorating glucose tolerance with age. The increased mortality rate of stroke patients in the newly diagnosed diabetics indicated the importance of early detection of diabetics and of the effect of treatment upon stroke outcomes in the diabetic patients and stress hyperglycaemia. Key words: Euglycaemia, glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c), haemorrhagic stroke, hyperglycaemia, infarction, stress hyperglycaemia.
