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). In order to discover sex‐specific changes that may underlie previously reported inclines in the prevalence of neurovascular and cardiovascular disease in women, 10‐year trends in the prevalence of vrfs in Switzerland were assessed.
