The Sudan conflict has severely impacted hypertension management, exacerbating the condition through chronic stress, disrupted healthcare, and lifestyle changes. Hypertension, a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, worsens with war-related stress and limited access to medications due to damaged healthcare infrastructure. Additionally, displacement, economic hardship, and food insecurity contribute to poor diets and reduced physical activity, further complicating blood pressure control. This article highlights the urgent need for adaptive healthcare strategies, such as mobile clinics and international aid, to address these challenges. A concerted effort is required to improve hypertension management and outcomes in conflict-affected populations.
苏丹冲突严重影响了高血压管理,通过慢性压力、医疗服务中断和生活方式改变使病情恶化。高血压是心血管疾病的主要危险因素,因与战争相关的压力以及医疗基础设施受损导致药物获取受限而加重。此外,流离失所、经济困难和粮食不安全导致饮食不良和身体活动减少,进一步使血压控制复杂化。本文强调迫切需要采取适应性医疗策略,如流动诊所和国际援助,以应对这些挑战。需要共同努力改善受冲突影响人群的高血压管理和治疗效果。
