    This document discusses the pathophysiology of stroke and cerebral aneurysm rupture. Modifiable risk factors for stroke include sedentary lifestyle, diet, stress, and diabetes mellitus. Non-modifiable risk factors include advancing age, family history of cardiovascular disease. Rupture of a cerebral aneurysm can cause hemorrhage, increased intracranial pressure, compression of the brain, decreased blood flow, cerebral edema, and hypoxia, leading to neurological deficits, motor deficits, cardiovascular changes, and cranial nerve deficits as signs and symptoms.
