Research progress on the correlation between cerebral small vessel disease and insomnia disorder
Cerebral small vessel disease will lead to insomnia disorder,and long-term chronic insomnia is one of the high risk factors of cerebral small vessel disease.The two are closely related and cause and effect each other.Modern studies have shown that based on the imaging classification and pathogenesis of cerebral small vessel disease,lacunar infarction,white matter hyperintensities,cerebral microbleed,enlarged perivascular spaces and brain atrophy are all strongly associated with insomnia.Traditional Chinese medicine research shows that cerebral small vessel disease mostly belongs to collateral disease,and Qi(气)deficiency and blood stasis is the key pathogenesis of cerebral small vessel disease with insomnia.The clinical treatment of cerebral small vessel disease with insomnia is mainly treated by the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine and non-drug therapy,the advantage lies in the use of western medicine to quickly relieve symptoms and prevent and control the risk factors of the disease,the use of traditional Chinese medicine and non-drug therapy to regulate human function as a whole to achieve the balance of Yin(阴)and Yang(阳).This article reviews the research progress on the relationship between cerebral small vessel disease and insomnia,in order to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
