Research progress on influence of meteorological factors on cerebrovascular diseases
Cerebrovascular diseases are one of the main causes of disability and death among the inhab-itants in our country and seriously threaten their lives and health.In addition to common risk factors,the me-teorological factors(air temperature,atmospheric pressure,humidity,wind speed)are also the risk factors causing cerebrovascular diseases.Meteorological factors increase the direct and indirect risk of cerebrovascular diseases through complex pathophysiological pathways,as well as exogenous and endogenous mechanisms.This article reviews the relationship between various meteorological factors and cerebrovascular diseases,and further elaborates their pathogenesis,aiming to provide more preventive measures for the high risk popula-tion,support for the formulation of public health policies,and ultimately reduce the medical and economic bur-den caused by cerebrovascular diseases.
