Listen to the Doctor Say so Heart and Cerebrovascular Disease

Only in this way can we reduce the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases by strictly quitting smoking and drinking, controlling weight, lowering blood lipids and strengthening exercise.

1. Formation of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases

Dr. Zhao Hongwei, from the Cardiovascular Center of the Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, has this to say about the formation of cardiovascular disease:

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are mainly due to the arteries supplying the heart and brain, the corresponding atherosclerosis occurs, the formation of plaque, causing blood vessel stenosis, insufficient blood supply, causing the corresponding symptoms.

In some patients, plaques may rupture and form acute thrombosis. If it happens in the heart, it's an acute myocardial infarction. If it occurs in the brain, it can cause the formation of acute cerebral thrombosis and seriously harm people's health.

The main reasons for the formation of atherosclerosis include genetic history, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes, long-term smoking history, and obesity. These factors will affect the metabolism of blood lipids, damage the vascular endothelium, and form clear atherosclerosis.

Therefore, in order to avoid cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, the above factors should be paid attention to, such as strict smoking and alcohol withdrawal, weight control, appropriate lowering of blood fat, and strengthening exercise, so as to reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

The prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is the most critical treatment, and the fundamental prevention and treatment is to prevent the generation and development of atherosclerosis.

2. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are not "specific diseases" but "action diseases"

Huang Fangjie, attending physician of the Department of Neurology, Yuquan Hospital of Tsinghua University, said: Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease is a general term of hemorrhagic disease and ischemic disease of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular caused by hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and other diseases.

It has a high disability rate, high mortality, high morbidity characteristics. Blood vessels are all over the body, among which the blood vessels in the heart and brain are widely distributed and relatively sensitive. The heart and brain are the key organs for the operation of the human body. Once the lesions in these two places, the human body will freeze or force a shutdown.

Moreover, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease is vascular disease, blood vessels throughout the body, once the lesions, the risk will be all over the body. And this kind of disease is affected by a variety of factors, not only age, heredity and other unregulated factors, but also by bad living habits, other diseases.

Therefore, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are not specific diseases of specific parts, but "action diseases", which are restricted by various risk factors.

Coronary heart disease, cerebral thrombosis, cerebral hemorrhage and so on all belong to the category of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Due to the high incidence, a series of popularization of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should be carried out to let more people know the relevant prevention methods and pathogenic factors of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

As we all know, the etiology of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is complex. It is not caused by a single factor, but by the combination of many risk factors. Therefore, life should pay special attention to, and stay away from the disease's pathogenic factors.

Coronary heart disease is one of the more common cardiovascular diseases, coronary heart disease is short for coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. The disease types are angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, sudden death.

Stroke is one of the more common cerebrovascular diseases, which can be divided into ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. We should pay more attention to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and do a good job in primary prevention. The director general of the World Health Organization says preventive measures alone can cut those deaths in half, meaning that half of all deaths are safe and preventable. Dr. Choong Do-hang said that many people die not of disease but of ignorance.

Therefore, the most important thing we should do is to raise the awareness of how to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
