Abstract:
Airborne pollen is a common allergen that causes allergic reactions. Researches have shown that airborne pollen may be an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke. The possible mechanisms of airborne pollen induced ischemic stroke include inflammation and oxidative stress response, atherosclerosis, blood hypercoagulability and thrombosis, and can increase the risk of ischemic stroke by promoting the occurrence of hypertension, respiratory and cardiovascular events.
