青年缺血性卒中病因与危险因素的研究进展

Etiology and risk factor of ischemic stroke in young adults

传统认为,缺血性卒中(IS)在青年较少见。但是,随着人们生活习惯改变、节奏加快以及影像检查技术的进步,IS发病的年轻化趋势日益明显。青年IS患者与老年人相比,病因和危险因素有相似之处,但较老年人更加多样化。对于青年IS,只有识别其病因与危险因素,才能有效预防与治疗。

In tradition, ischemic stroke （IS） was rare among young adults. Since the change of life style and the improvement of imaging technology, the incidence of IS among young adults was increased. Obviously, the causes and risk factors of IS in the young and the old are not only similarity but also diversity. Only when it could be recognized clearly, IS would be prevented and treated effectively.
