Abstract: Cerebrovascular disease is one of the major harmful diseases in China, whichendangers the residents' health and safety because of its high morbidity, recurrence rate anddisability rate. Costs of prevention and cure increase every year, which became a huge socialeconomical burden now. However, there are no widely accepted standards for describing thedemography, disease treatment, care process and prognosis. The skimble-scamble methods of datacollection and analysis are frequently applied in different studies, which hamper comparing crossoverstudy, understanding of population differences, data sharing and meta-analysis. So NationalNatural Science Foundation of China(NSFC) called for the establishing of China Stroke CommonDatabase(CSCD) in order to promote the cooperation of various institutions and researchers, thedata sharing, the collection of a large number of patient samples and to facilitate the resolution ofsome unsolved clinical problem. We believe that CSCD will be effective in the treatment of strokepatients, improving patients' quality of life and may lead to a more rapid reduction in the burden ofcerebrovascular disease.

摘要： 脑血管病是危害我国居民健康和生命安全的重大疾病之一，其以高发病率、高复发率、高致残率及逐年递增的防治费用给国民造成巨大的社会、经济负担。由于没有统一被广泛接受的标准来描述人口学统计、疾病治疗及护理过程和预后的指标。往往在不同的研究中应用不同的数据收集及分析方法，妨碍了交叉研究的比较、人口差异的认识、实现数据的共享和汇总分析。在中国建立中国卒中共同数据库（China Stroke Common Database，CSCD）是为了更好的促进各机构和研究的合作和数据共享，减少研究中数据定义不统一产生的误导信号，并收集大量的患者样本，努力促进解决迄今不能解决的临床问题。国家自然科学基金委员会（National Natural Science Foundation of China，NSFC）希望通过号召组建CSCD，能够更有效地治疗卒中患者，提高患者的生存质量，并朝着更迅速的减少脑血管病的负担的方向发展。
