Dr. Hitoshi Hasegawa, Brain Research Institute, Niigata University
Announcer Moena Sugiyama: "Data shows that Niigata Prefecture has a higher incidence of stroke than other prefectures. What kind of disease is it?" .
Sudden onset of "cerebral apoplexy"; Severe headache as if being hit
CT image of the brain
First, let's look at the CT image of the brain... Dr. Hitoshi Hasegawa, Brain Research Institute, Niigata University: "Bleeding appears white on CT, and infarction appears black. Extensive cerebral infarction
Classification of stroke
Strokes can be broadly classified into two types: "blockage of blood vessels in the brain" and "rupture of blood vessels in the brain". [Clogged type] Main disease "Cerebral infarction" [Rupture type] Main disease "Cerebral hemorrhage" and "Subarachnoid hemorrhage" Basically, it is said that the onset occurs suddenly.

Sudden onset
Dr. Hitoshi Hasegawa, Brain Research Institute, Niigata University: "People who say, 'I was speaking energetically just a while ago,' suddenly collapse. Most of them have sudden disturbances of consciousness without warning, or their language functions are severely impaired. Inability to speak and sudden loss of movement in the right or left side of the body are common stroke symptoms."
Subarachnoid hemorrhage can cause severe headache
And the type of blood vessel rupture is more severe, and among them, "subarachnoid hemorrhage" is said to be attacked by severe headaches like being hit.
100,000 to 150,000 people die annually from stroke, even if they survive, there is a risk of "serious sequelae"...
Death due to stroke
Dr. Hitoshi Hasegawa, Brain Research Institute, Niigata University: "When subarachnoid hemorrhage develops, 30% to 50% of people die." However, the fear of stroke is that even if it saves lives, many patients are left with serious aftereffects.
Once you have a stroke...
Dr. Hitoshi Hasegawa, Brain Research Institute, Niigata University: "When speech disorders and hemiplegia are severe, complete recovery is difficult even after long-term rehabilitation." Q. Compared to other diseases, there are more people who need assistance and nursing care.
Stroke is difficult to prevent/predict.Even if you have a brain checkup,it is not always possible.
Prediction is very difficult.
Also, in many cases, there are few signs that can be identified in advance, and he points out that even if you have undergone a brain check every year, "there is no guarantee that you will not have a stroke." Dr. Hitoshi Hasegawa, Brain Research Institute, Niigata University: "Many subarachnoid hemorrhages are caused by the rupture of an aneurysm in the brain. It is believed that early detection and treatment of such an aneurysm with brain scans is effective in preventing it." However, it is extremely difficult to prevent or predict other types of cerebral hemorrhage and stroke.”
