#18-year-old beautiful model does not drink water to cause cerebral infarction #,
This topic is on Weibo hot search.
A discussion of this regrettable matter,
But it has attracted questions.
"Don't think that you can squander your health at a young age, you must pay attention to healthy eating", the original Weibo made a kind reminder, but some professional doctors pointed out the neglected part of the case overview: this case is very special, the reason why a large-scale cerebral infarction occurs is because she is a Moyamoya disease patient.
The smoke disease mentioned in this hot search is very strange to the public, what kind of disease is it? And for ordinary people, how much water is appropriate to drink?

18-year-old female model brain infarction, strange not to drink water?
On February 28, a case was on Weibo's hot search. The Weibo copy provides an overview of the case. The 18-year-old female model did not drink water for a period of time because she had to control her weight before going on stage, resulting in blood concentration, coupled with excessive physical load of exercise, resulting in a large-scale cerebral infarction. After the doctor's consultation, the model was completely infarcated throughout the brain, supported by a ventilator and reached the end of the stage.
A young life passed, netizens have regretted in the comments, but there are also netizens and professional doctors pointed out that the doctor in the original video mentioned that the model herself is a smoke disease patient, did not drink water for a period of time to lead to blood concentration, is not the main reason for her such a serious cerebral infarction, just put forward not to drink water to do health reminders, biased. Another doctor specifically tweeted that the normal crowd "don't be too afraid, you can't drink water for a day." ”
In people with Moyamoya disease, blowing a balloon may be transient "hemiplegia"
The reporter looked at the original news video in detail and found that the doctor in the news did explicitly mention that the female model had smoke disease. Is the smoke disease, which many people may not have heard of, the culprit in the tragedy of female models?
Mao Lei, deputy chief physician of the Department of Neurosurgery of the General Hospital of the Eastern Theater, told the Yangtze Evening News/Purple Cow News reporter that smoke disease is not "smoke" in the brain. The bilateral carotid arteries in normal people enter the base of the skull and differentiate into different branching blood vessels, while in patients with Moyamoya disease, after the carotid arteries enter the brain from the neck, the "road" is occluded. In order to meet the blood supply to the brain, the body "works hard" to grow a lot of small blood vessels. These abnormally hyperplastic small vascular networks are like rising smoke when the cerebral angiogram is angiography, hence the name of the disease.
"But these tiny blood vessels are greatly reduced in the ability to meet the blood supply of the brain, so the ability of moyamoya disease patients to withstand blood pressure fluctuations, blood concentration and other conditions is particularly poor, especially prone to infarction or bleeding."
Mao Lei, deputy chief physician, introduced that smoke disease is congenital, so many have symptoms in childhood, smoke disease children will have dizziness, headache symptoms, some after crying, or blow a balloon, blow a trumpet, overvention leads to cerebrovascular spasm, one side of the arm can not be lifted, after a while to ease up before recovery. If a child has this "childhood stroke" condition, be careful to beware of moyamoyasis.
"Bridge" cerebral blood vessels, "build roads" for blood flow
In the past, there was no good way to treat Moyamoya disease, but with the advancement of technology, the treatment method is to re-"build roads" and "bridges" for blood flow. The General Hospital of the Eastern Theater recently established a multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment model for Moyamoya disease, which also hopes to maximize the treatment of Patients with Moyamoya Disease.
Deputy Chief Physician Mao Lei said that the main treatment methods in the industry at present include two categories: indirect patching and direct bypass. Indirect patching refers to the application of tissues such as muscles and dura mater near the temples where blood supply is abundant to the surface of the cerebral cortex, allowing the blood vessels to slowly grow into the brain. Especially for children, clinical studies have confirmed that indirect application is very effective, and the surgical operation is relatively simple.
For adult moyamoya disease, the current industry is mainly "bridging". Like heart bypass surgery, the "bypass" of Moyamoya disease is to create a "highway" for the blood vessels in the brain, and the superficial temporal artery under the scalp of the temple site and the cortical branch of the middle cerebral artery in the brain are directly sutured, so that the blood flow of the subcutaneous artery can directly reach the brain. After the blood supply in the skull improves, the abnormal smoke-like blood vessels at the base of the skull will slowly decrease, and the patient's chances of rebleeding or re-infarction will decrease.
Mao Lei, deputy chief physician, said that through direct and indirect "road construction and bridge building", the effective rate of treatment of patients with Moyamoya disease can reach about 80%. Although this proportion is not too high compared to many other surgical methods, it is already a great improvement and has great significance for individual patients.
Drinking water is only the trigger, and normal people have the ability to regulate
Because of the preparation to go to power to maintain the best state, the result of cerebral infarction, in this case, not drinking water is actually the cause of the disease. "Not drinking water leads to blood concentration, slowing down the flow rate, coupled with the presence of special vascular structures in the brain, so there is a large area of cerebral infarction." Deputy chief physician Mao Lei said that the regulation function of the body of the general population is normal, and short-term lack of water will not be hemiplegic, everyone does not have to worry, but the suggestion of timely water replenishment is also applicable to the general population.
"In layman's terms, there are two important factors in the occurrence of cerebral infarction, one is that the blood flow rate is slowed down, and the other is that the blood becomes viscous, and it is helpful to add water in time to allow the blood to be properly diluted, which is helpful for preventing cerebral infarction." Drinking water, especially the elderly and obese people, after a night of sleep, timely hydration after getting up early can reduce the risk of cerebral infarction. ”
It should be noted that for normal people, there is no need to blindly concentrate on supplementing a large amount of water, and a large amount of water at one time exceeds the body's ability to bear, which may cause "water poisoning". Don't wait until you're thirsty to drink water, and don't think that drinking a drink is equivalent to getting enough water. Many people have heard of drinking 8 glasses of water a day, and in fact there is not such a precise requirement. Because people take in water from multiple channels every day, there is no prescribed amount of drinking water, usually the amount of urine is 2500 ml and above, and the color of urine can also be observed when urinating, the dark yellow color indicates that the drinking water is not enough, and the urine color is light yellow when the drinking water is normal.
