Brain health is the complete functioning of the brain across the life course to support the full physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being and quality of life of an individual towards attaining and maintaining the epitome of a meaningful, impactful, purposeful, and productive life. The determinants of brain health are complex and include at least in part, non-traditional risks such as interactions among social, economic, physical, and internal factors (e.g., emotions and adaptations to changing life experiences), and external factors such as environment, geography, and climate change. Thus, social determinants of health (e.g., where we work, live, and play) are those non-medical factors that influence health outcomes, and as non-traditional cardiovascular factors, may influence the development of traditional cardiovascular risks. Examples of the non-traditional cardiovascular factors include environmental stressors (e.g., climate change, air pollution), and psychological and physical abuse. In this article, we provide a discussion of social determinants of health and other non-traditional cardiovascular risks as they relate to brain health.
脑健康是指大脑在整个生命过程中的完整功能，以支持个体的全面身心健康、社会和精神福祉以及生活质量，从而实现并维持有意义、有影响力、有目标且富有成效的生活典范。脑健康的决定因素很复杂，至少部分包括非传统风险，如社会、经济、身体和内在因素（如情绪以及对不断变化的生活经历的适应）之间的相互作用，以及环境、地理和气候变化等外部因素。因此，健康的社会决定因素（例如我们工作、生活和娱乐的地点）是那些影响健康结果的非医学因素，并且作为非传统心血管因素，可能会影响传统心血管风险的发展。非传统心血管因素的例子包括环境压力源（如气候变化、空气污染）以及心理和身体虐待。在本文中，我们将讨论健康的社会决定因素以及其他与脑健康相关的非传统心血管风险。
