Blow your mind
A stroke, previously known as a cerebrovascular accident (CVA), is a leading cause of adult disability and is the second leading cause of death worldwide. One of the things that can trigger a stroke is a ruptured aneurysm and a new study has shown that many every day pleasurable activities can cause an aneurysm to blow.
A stroke is caused by anything that disrupts blood supply to the brain. The result is damage to the neurons of the brain, and in many cases, death. Needless to say, a stroke is an eventuality to be avoided if possible. That is why a new study looking at things that increase your risk of a stroke is so interesting.
Around eight per cent of all strokes are caused by a burst aneurysm. An aneurysm is a weakness in the wall of artery that causes it to balloon. If that balloon occurs in a blood vessel to your brain and if that balloon bursts you get bleeding into the brain and a potential stroke. In an almost literal sense you a ruptured aneurysm is a blowing of your mind. Now Dutch researchers have found out what factors will cause an aneurysm to rupture.
To do this they interviewed 250 patients with brain haemorrhage due to a ruptured aneurysm. They gave them questionnaires asking about 30 potential triggers for a ruptured aneurysm, the patient’s exposure to the triggers just before their event, and their usual exposure to these triggers.
The results showed eight factors that increased risk of rupturing a brain aneurysm by the following percentages: drinking coffee (10.6 per cent), vigorous physical exercise (7.9 per cent), nose blowing (5.4 per cent), having sex (4.3 per cent), straining to defecate (3.6 per cent), drinking a cola soft drink (3.5 per cent), being startled (2.7 per cent), and being angry (1.3 per cent).
Now that you have the information it’s up to you to do your own risk analysis and decide whether you are prepared to go without coffee, sex, sneezing, and cola (not necessarily simultaneously) to reduce your stroke risk.
