Don't bother checking it out. This, plus ads, is the sum total of what
is there:

More women than men come into view to be having mid-life strokes, it has
been declared. Researchers in the US analyzed data from 17000 people over
the age of 18, of whom 606 had go through a stroke.

Oh, yes, 'come into view to be having' is how most medical articles are
worded, no?

Isn't this old news? Women more prone to strokes, men to heart attacks?
Revisiting the issue, perhaps? Like in Norway, where researchers have
revisited why the eldest child is the smartest (by 2.3 IQ points) of the
siblings. Turns out, any eldest child. If an older sibling dies, the one
that then becomes the eldest becomes the smartest. They can't quite
explain that, because that goes against the theory that the eldest had
some months of parental undivided attention to account for the
intellectual advantage.
