ABSTRACT
Hypertension is one of the most important diseases that threaten human health, and has become a global problem. In recent years, the prevalence of hypertension in children has increased significantly year by year, and hypertension in children has a trajectory phenomenon, which is easy to cause cognitive damage and other target organ damage. Therefore, it is necessary to be alert and attached to the relationship between hypertension and cognitive impairment in children. This article reviews the epidemiological characteristics, etiology, diagnostic criteria of hypertension and pathophysiological mechanisms of cognitive impairment caused by hypertension in children.
ABSTRACT
Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is one of the common complications of stroke,which has a significant impact on the life of patients.Studies have shown that the incidence of PSCI varies from region to region,and is correlated with demographic and vascular risk factors,or is significantly different due to stroke types and characteristics.The specific mechanism of PSCI remains unclear,but early identification of its risk factors is helpful for early intervention.This article reviews the risk factors of PSCI.
ABSTRACT
As an imaging manifestation of cerebral small vascular disease,the relationship between enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) and cognitive impairment has attracted much attention.Clinical studies have shown that EPVS may be present in the general population and in patients with cognitive impairment caused by neurodegenerative or cerebrovascular diseases.Further studies have showed that EPVS may be an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment.This article reviews the pathogenesis of cognitive impairment in individuals with EPVS.
