腹型肥胖与脑卒中的关系

Correlation between abdominal obesity and stroke

肥胖与脑卒中的关系一直存在争议,目前较为一致的观点认为,中心型肥胖(腹型肥胖,非外周型肥胖)是脑卒中的独立危险因素。控制中心型肥胖已成为脑卒中一级预防的有效手段之一。我国是脑卒中的高发国家,识别和干预中心型肥胖对降低我国脑卒中患病率意义显著。

The correlation between adiposity and stroke remains controversial. Current studies suggest that abdominal adiposity, but not general adiposity, is an independent risk factor of stroke. Preventing abdominal adiposity has become an effective approach for primary prevention of stroke. Since there is a high incidence of stroke in China, to recognize and intervene abdominal adiposity is helpful to lowering the incidence of stroke in China.
