Chronic kidney disease and ischemic stroke / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Stroke has become one of the main causes of death in China, and ischemic stroke is the most common type. At the same time, the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is also increasing, and there are many similar risk factors with ischemic stroke. More and more studies have shown that CKD increases the incidence, severity and risk of poor outcome of ischemic stroke, but the specific mechanism of its interaction is not completely clear. For ischemic stroke patients with CKD, the most effective treatment and prevention measures are lack of sufficient evidence. This article reviews the relationship between CKD and ischemic stroke, as well as the treatment and prevention.
