残余代谢危险因素与青年卒中 Residual Metabolic Risk Factors and Stroke in Young Adults

open access: yesZhongguo cuzhong zazhi
青年卒中一般指在18~50岁年龄段内发生的卒中,其发病率上升给我国带来了日益增加的社会经济负担。在探讨青年卒中的代谢危险因素时,除了传统的高血压、糖代谢异常、脂代谢异常和肥胖外,残余代谢危险因素亦不容忽视。本文重点关注了炎症、高同型半胱氨酸血症、高尿酸血症和肠道微生物群代谢产物这4种残余代谢危险因素对青年卒中的影响。炎症在青年卒中中的作用显著,与心源性脑栓塞这一重要病因的发生发展密切相关。高同型半胱氨酸血症通过影响血管内皮和凝血功能促进血栓形成,是有望预测卒中风险及预后的重要指标 ...
