Stroke, or cerebrovascular disease, is a sudden condition that is increasingly affecting more people due to the rise in unhealthy dietary habits, particularly the consumption of sugary and salty foods and beverages. This lifestyle has led to the prevalence of certain diseases that significantly affect the circulatory system and the process of blood circulation in the body, such as:
· High blood pressure: This silent killer is the number one cause of stroke, leading tothe number of patients increasing every year. High blood pressure gradually damages the blood vessels, leading to their deterioration, narrowing, and fragility, which increasesthe risk of rupture or causes them to lose their ability to circulate blood.
· Heart disease: Characterized by abnormalheart function, heart disease, including types such as arrhythmia, heart valve stenosis, and heart valve regurgitation, increases the risk of stroke by up to five times compared to the general population.
· Diabetes: High blood sugar levels can damage the flexibility of blood vessel walls, making them fragile and more prone to rupture, especially in the brain.
· Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA): Symptoms such as slurred speech, blurred vision, and weakness in the face, arm, or leg that resolve within 24 hours can be a precursor to a stroke. Up to 40% of people who have had a TIA will have a stroke, and one in three people who have had a TIA will end up with permanent paralysis.
