Stroke, the sudden death of some brain cells due to lack of oxygen when the blood flow to the brain is lost by blockage or rupture of an artery to the brain, is also a leading cause of dementia and depression.About 80 per cent of strokes are ischemic strokes. Ischemic strokes occur when the arteries to your brain become narrowed or blocked, causing severely reduced blood flow (ischemia).Haemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel in your brain leaks or ruptures. Brain haemorrhages can result from many conditions that affect your blood vessels. These include: Uncontrolled high blood pressure (hypertension) Overtreatment with anticoagulants (blood thinners) Weak spots in your blood vessel walls (aneurysms) Rupture of an abnormal tangle of thin-walled blood vessels (arteriovenous malformation).
