"Stroke" is the leading cause of death and disability among Chinese residents
The number one cause
Stroke, medically called "stroke", is the number one cause of death and disability among residents in our country. It has the "five high" characteristics of high morbidity, high disability rate, high mortality, high recurrence rate, and high economic burden.
In 2019, a study published by The Lancet, an authoritative medical journal, analyzed the main causes of death among Chinese residents from 1990 to 2017. Over the past 27 years, although the rankings of various diseases have fluctuated, stroke has always topped the list, and this "status" has not changed.
Stroke can generally be divided into two categories: ischemic and hemorrhagic. Ischemic stroke caused by cerebral artery stenosis or clots in other parts of the brain causing cerebral artery blockage is often referred to as "cerebral infarction", while hemorrhagic stroke is referred to as "cerebral infarction". Excessive pressure in the cerebral arteries and weak arterial walls can lead to local arterial rupture and bleeding, both of which will prevent brain cells from receiving blood supply.
"Different symptoms will occur depending on the location of cerebral blood vessel blockage or bleeding. Patients may develop symptoms such as limb paralysis, speech impairment, dysphagia, and cognitive impairment after the onset." Ji Weizhong, chief physician of the Department of Neurology, Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital, said, Risk factors for stroke mainly include high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and other diseases, so these patients should pay special attention. "Most stroke patients are middle-aged and elderly people, but now the probability of the disease among young people is also increasing. In addition to genetic factors, long-term smoking and alcohol abuse, staying up late, lack of exercise, etc. will all become causes of the disease."
Stroke occurs suddenly, but in the early stage There are often no obvious symptoms, and some patients will miss the best opportunity for treatment if they don’t care. Experts say that although stroke is a "silent killer", it is also preventable and treatable. Early symptoms of stroke can be identified from emergencies such as decreased limb balance, difficulty seeing, facial asymmetry, crooked corners of the mouth, numbness and weakness in one arm, slurred speech, etc. The earlier it is discovered and treated, the better the recovery effect will be. The better.
"When you have a stroke, remember that 'time is your brain'. When patients with cerebral infarction develop, they should be sent to the hospital for thrombolytic treatment within 6 hours, which can open blood vessels. Patients with cerebral hemorrhage are at risk of developing cerebral edema within 3 to 5 days. Seeking medical advice promptly can minimize the risk. "Ji Weizhong said that early prevention of stroke is very important. It is recommended that everyone practice a healthy lifestyle, prevent and control risk factors, try to ensure adequate sleep, and maintain a stable mood and good spirits. According to your condition, choose an exercise method that suits you and insist on long-term exercise to improve immunity and reduce the risk of stroke.
The first batch of "post-90s" has become a high-risk group
According to China Business News, cerebrovascular epidemiological data show that globally, the lifetime risk of stroke for people over 25 years old is 24.9%, and this number in my country is close to 40%, that is, 40% of people are likely to have a stroke starting from the age of 25. According to data from the Stroke Prevention and Control Engineering Committee of the National Health Commission, in 2020, the prevalence of stroke among residents over 40 years old in my country was 2.61%, the incidence rate was 505.23/100,000 people, and the mortality rate was 343.4/100,000 people; based on this calculation, In 2020, there were approximately 17.8 million stroke patients in the country over the age of 40. In fact, this number is increasing every year. Currently, the first batch of "post-90s" have become a group of people with a high risk of stroke.

32-year-old Xiao Chen was carried to Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen University. When he arrived at the hospital, he already had severe stroke symptoms and could not move his left arm and leg at all. Angiography revealed that his cerebral blood vessels were completely closed and could not be opened. MRI showed a large area of cerebral infarction. Because it exceeded 24 hours, the optimal time window for drug thrombolysis and interventional treatment was missed, and the only option was drug treatment.

Dr. Zhu Renjing from the Department of Neurology who received the diagnosis learned that Xiao Chen came to Xiamen for medical treatment from other places. He worked odd jobs to make a living. He had a history of smoking and drinking for more than ten years, and his life was very irregular. He often drank with friends until midnight at night. In the middle of the night, I also had a strong craving for cigarettes. Xiao Chen's symptoms gradually worsened. At first, he felt a little dizzy after waking up, his left arm had no strength, his left leg was a little weak when walking, and his speech was a little slurred. However, he felt that he was young, maybe he was too tired, and Didn't care. It wasn't until the next day that my dizziness worsened and my arms and legs failed to recover, so I went to the local hospital for treatment. At first, a CT scan found a small infarct in the brain. After one day of hospitalization, the symptoms worsened again and I could no longer lift my left arm. Can't stand up either. After further vascular imaging, it was found that a large blood vessel had been occluded, so he was transferred to a hospital in Xiamen for treatment.
