Is smoking related to stroke?

When we go round the house every day, we will find some patients who have just passed away. However, we have already suffered from senile diseases such as stroke. Why does the stroke come earlier in the day when living conditions are getting better? According to the study, smoking is an independent risk factor for middle-aged stroke.

Everyone knows that smoking can cause chronic bronchitis, emphysema, pulmonary heart disease, and even lung cancer. In fact, smoking is not just a hazard. The smoke emitted from burning cigarettes contains more than 3,800 known chemicals, of which the most harmful to humans. The substances are mainly nicotine, tobacco tar and carbon monoxide. Nicotine in one cigarette can poison a mouse; Nicotine in 25 cigarettes can poison a cow; 40-60 milligrams of pure nicotine can poison a person, not an alarmist.

Each cigarette burns with 20-30 mg of carbon monoxide. If many smokers gather to smoke in an unventilated room, the concentration of carbon monoxide in the air can be brought close to the concentration at which gas poisoning occurs.

According to figures released by the World Health Organization, about 4.9 million people die from smoking-related diseases each year in the world, and smoking can cause at least four types of "fatal" diseases.

one. cancer. This is the result of a combination of various carcinogenic and carcinogenic substances such as nicotine, phenylpropanone and harmful metals in tobacco. The American Cancer Society survey found that smokers have 8-12 times more lung cancer than non-smokers. In addition, smokers are 50% more likely than non-smokers to develop cancers such as oral cancer, laryngeal cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, stomach cancer, and bladder cancer.

two. pulmonary disease. Smoke-stimulated smokers have 5.4 times the incidence of chronic bronchitis than non-smokers.

three. Coronary heart disease. According to statistics, one-quarter of people who die from coronary heart disease are related to smoking.

four. Stroke. Data show that smokers are 2-3 times more likely to suffer stroke than non-smokers. Nicotine inhalation during smoking increases the release of epinephrine and norepinephrine, causes vasoconstriction or spasm, increases blood flow resistance, causes damage to the blood vessel wall, easily leads to atherosclerotic vascular stenosis, and epinephrine release can promote Platelet aggregation, prone to cause cerebral thrombosis, promote the occurrence of stroke. Therefore, smoking is one of the risk factors for the onset of stroke. Quitting smoking is also an important measure to prevent stroke.
