Effective risk factor modification is the prerequisite to prevent neurovascular disease such as stroke or vascular dementia. Non‐traditional vascular risk factors (nt‐vrfs) including stress significantly add to the risk of neurovascular disease arising from traditional vascular risk factors (t‐vrfs).
