Why are diabetics prone to stroke?
A diabetic brushes his teeth after getting up in the morning. Somehow, his toothbrush fell to the ground. When my wife saw this scene, she immediately thought of the medical knowledge that diabetics are prone to stroke. Without saying anything, she immediately stopped a taxi and took her husband to the hospital. After examination, it was thrombotic cerebral infarction, and the inability to grasp the toothbrush was the result of consciousness disorder caused by ischemic brain injury. Diabetic patients' recipes found diabetic complications early, so the patient received multiple injections, took some blood thinners, and was discharged after two days of observation in the hospital bed. Think about it, if you don't have a careful wife around you, if your wife doesn't know medical knowledge-help her husband to bed, he will sleep for hours in a daze. By the time he wakes up again, his husband may have completely changed: his face is crooked and his mouth is crooked, and his speech is vague. At this time, it was too late to call an ambulance. We missed the prime time to save the stroke patients, and may be paralyzed in bed from now on, and the disaster officially began. Then, as a vascular crisis, what is the relationship between stroke and diabetes, a metabolic disease? What do diabetics eat? The symptoms of diabetes are that the energy metabolism of diabetic patients is disordered, and there are many vascular endothelial injuries caused by long-term hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. In particular, a large number of patients' body fat is decomposed into triglycerides and free fatty acids, and cholesterol synthesis is vigorous, which is easy to form the stroke basis of arteriosclerosis; At the same time, the blood of diabetic patients is often in hypercoagulable state, and the platelet function often changes, which can be used as a factor to form cerebral thrombosis. Studies have shown that adjusting blood sugar can reduce complications, but it cannot reduce the risk of stroke. Therefore, diabetic patients are four to eight times more likely to have a stroke than normal people.
