Key Points

This research aims to examine how lung function and physical activity together affect the risk of having a stroke.
Cross-sectional analysis of data from US and Chinese adults

Combined assessment enhances the effectiveness of stroke risk stratification
Findings suggest targeted prevention strategies could be more effective in diverse populations

Abstract

Preserved pulmonary function combined with regular physical activity is associated with a significantly lower stroke risk across diverse populations. Integrated assessment of these factors may improve stroke risk stratification and inform targeted prevention strategies.
