Stroke in young has special significance in developing countries. This is so because some etiologies like cardioembolic infections are more common than in developed countries, and the affection of economically productive group adds further to the overall disease burden. The paper discusses the burden of stroke in young and its implications in a developing country like India along with an approach to identifying different causes that are known to occur in this age group.
在发展中国家,年轻人中风具有特殊意义。之所以如此,是因为某些病因,如心源性栓塞感染,在发展中国家比在发达国家更为常见,而且经济生产人群受到影响进一步加重了总体疾病负担。本文讨论了印度等发展中国家年轻人中风的负担及其影响,同时还介绍了一种识别该年龄组已知病因的方法。
