There is accumulating evidence showing that influenza infection and cardiorespiratory diseases are closely associated. Influenza has been described as a triggering factor capable of both exacerbate underlying chronic diseases as well as inducing the appearance of new respiratory and cardiovascular events. Consequently, influenza infection and its associated comorbidity have a significant impact on the health system. In this document, we extensively reviewed the current literature to describe the most relevant data on the relationship between influenza infection and cardiorespiratory diseases. Likewise, we analyzed the possible pathophysiological mechanisms explaining the connection between influenza infection and cardiac and respiratory events. Finally, reviewed data has been put into perspective to highlight the importance of influenza vaccination as an effective measure in the prevention of cardiorespiratory diseases, especially in the population with underlying chronic diseases.
越来越多的证据表明，流感感染与心肺疾病密切相关。流感被描述为一种触发因素，既能加重潜在的慢性疾病，又能诱发新的呼吸和心血管事件。因此，流感感染及其相关合并症对卫生系统有重大影响。在本文件中，我们广泛回顾了当前文献，以描述关于流感感染与心肺疾病之间关系的最相关数据。同样，我们分析了解释流感感染与心脏和呼吸事件之间联系的可能病理生理机制。最后，对所回顾的数据进行了审视，以突出流感疫苗接种作为预防心肺疾病的有效措施的重要性，特别是在患有潜在慢性疾病的人群中。
