Cerebrovascular diseases are also known as cerebrovascular diseases. They are central nervous system disorders that occur as a result of blockage or bleeding in cerebral vessels. While the prevalence of cerebrovascular diseases varies across populations, in Western countries, they are the most common nervous system disease and cause the highest rate of permanent damage. Lifestyle plays a significant role in the disease’s occurrence, as well as genetic factors. It is more common in men and older adults. Age, gender, and genetic factors are among the non-modifiable risk factors. Additionally, there are modifiable risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. The clinical picture resulting from cerebrovascular diseases is commonly known as a stroke.
