Cerebrovascular accidents (CVA)-strokes represent a major public health problem worldwide, due to the large number of people affected. Also, there is a large number of people who die from stroke, especially in developing countries. Our study included a group of 119 patients, diagnosed with stroke and admitted to the Emergency Hospital of Drobeta Turnul-Severin, Mehedinți county, between 2016-2020. The analysis of risk factors and associated comorbidities showed that stroke can affect both the elderly and young people, under 20 years old. However, approximately 4/5 of CVA patients (79.83%) were aged over 50 years old. If non-ischemic strokes predominated in patients under the age of 50, after this age there is a tendency to balance the incidence between the eight main forms of stroke. No significant differences were observed regarding the social environment of the patients, which shows that the risk factors are almost identical in both social environments. Among the modifiable risk factors, we highlighted: high blood pressure in 55.46% of cases, obesity in 19.33% of cases, atherosclerosis in 10.92% of cases, diabetes mellitus in 10.92%, kidney failure in 6.72% of cases. The data we obtained show that there are possibilities to reduce the incidence of stroke by controlling and reducing the modifiable risk factors.
脑血管意外(CVA)——中风是全球主要的公共卫生问题,因为受影响的人数众多。此外,有大量的人死于中风,尤其是在发展中国家。我们的研究纳入了119名被诊断为中风并于2016年至2020年间入住梅赫丁茨县德罗贝塔图尔努-塞韦林急诊医院的患者。对危险因素和相关合并症的分析表明,中风可影响老年人以及20岁以下的年轻人。然而,约五分之四的CVA患者(79.83%)年龄在50岁以上。如果50岁以下患者中非缺血性中风占主导,那么在这个年龄之后,八种主要中风类型的发病率有趋于平衡的趋势。在患者的社会环境方面未观察到显著差异,这表明两种社会环境中的危险因素几乎相同。在可改变的危险因素中,我们着重指出:55.46%的病例存在高血压,19.33%的病例存在肥胖,10.92%的病例存在动脉粥样硬化,10.92%的病例存在糖尿病,6.72%的病例存在肾衰竭。我们获得的数据表明,通过控制和减少可改变的危险因素,有可能降低中风的发病率。
