血管性痴呆发病机制与中西医治疗研究概况

Research Overview of Pathogenesis of Vascular Dementia and Treatment of Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine

在常见的痴呆类型中,血管性痴呆(VD)仅次于阿尔茨海默症。VD的发病特征是认知障碍和记忆丧失,并伴有脑梗死或脑出血。VD作为唯一可以早期预防的痴呆类型,对于发病机制及其治疗研究具有重要的临床意义和社会价值,但目前对于VD的研究繁杂且未统一。文章概括总结了VD的发病机制及中西医诊治手段,以期为中西医结合防治VD提供了新的理论基础与临床实践。

Among the common types of dementia,vascular dementia(VD)is second only to Alzheimer’s disease.The onset of VD is characterized by cognitive impairment,memory loss,cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage.As the only dementia that can be prevented early,VD has important clinical significance and social value for the study of pathogenesis and treatment.However,the current research on VD is complicated and not unified.This article summarizes the pathogenesis of VD and the diagnosis and treatment methods of Chinese and Western medicine,and provides a new theoretical basis and clinical practice for the prevention and treatment of VD with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.
