痴呆的血管危险因素

Vascular Risk Factors of Dementia

临床流行病学研究表明,血管危险因素,如高血压、心脏病、糖尿病和高脂血症等不仅是血管性痴呆的危险因素,也是Alzheimer病的危险因素,这对于预防和控制目前尚无根治手段的痴呆具有极为重要的社会和医学意义。各种血管危险因素可能通过影响血管内皮功能和脑血流而引起痴呆。

Epidemiological studies have shown that vascular risk factors, such as hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, hyperlipidemia etc, are the risk factors not only for vascular dementia, but also for Alzheimer＇s disease. These findings have important socio-medical implications for preventing and controlling dementia disorders that can＇t be radically treated now. Various vascular risk factors may produce dementia disorders by influencing the function of vascular endothelium and brain-blood flow.
