美国科研人员日前报道说,有睡眠呼吸暂停症状者容易中风的原因是呼吸暂停会使脑部血流量减少,损害大脑相关调节功能。这一成果已发表在新一期美国《应用生理学杂志》上。研究显示,有睡眠呼吸暂停症状者出现中风甚至死亡的风险,约是没有这一症状者的3倍。为解释其中原因,研究人 American researchers recently reported that people with sleep apnea symptoms are prone to stroke because apnea will reduce blood flow to the brain, impairing brain-related regulatory functions. This result has been published in the new issue of the United States, “Applied Physiology”. Studies have shown that those who have symptoms of sleep apnea risk of stroke or even death, about 3 times those without this symptom. To explain why, researchers
