Often this is because people do not know the warning signs (e.g., sudden numb ness, confusion, or loss of balance), or the risk fac tors that lead to stroke, like high blood pressure, diabe tes, and an irregular heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation, or AF). Some minority groups also suffer disproportionate ly because of cultural and language barriers- which can lead to a delay in treat ment or not seeking treat ment at all. Aspirin Therapy: Who should use it? Although there is broad agreement about the bene fits of aspirin in secondary prevention of stroke, (the use of aspirin in people who have already had a stroke) there has been debate in the scientific community about the benefits and risk of using aspirin for primary stroke prevention, i.e., in people without a prior stroke. The Food and Drug Administra tion has not recommended that use. Sol C. Johnson National Alumni New Meetings Beginning January 23,2016, Sol C.
