The incidence of stroke in postmenopausal women increases significantly and is higher than that of men.The overall morbidity and mortality of stroke in women are expected to maintain a sustained upward trend before 2050.The impact of stroke on women is significantly greater than men and mahly manifests in the aspects of older age of onset,more risk factors,lower timely treatment rate,and poor overall prognosis.The influence factors of stroke in women involve many aspects,including sex hormone exposure,chromosomal inheritance,and social status.Researching the pathophysiological characteristics of female stroke and the related factors affecting the diagnosis and treatment contribute to take better effective individualized treatment strategies and decrease the morbidity,mortality,disability rate and recurrence rate in women.This article reviews the epidemiological characteristics,treatment,prognosis and its pathophysiological mechanisms of female stroke.

Objective To observe the effect of bandage contact lens on cornea epithelial healing after Epi-LASIK,and to evaluate the efficacy and safety.Methods Prospective case-control study.The 92 cases(181 eyes) performing Epi-LASIK were devided into observation group and control group.The 46 cases(91 eyes) of the control group were covered with routine nursing and the other 46 cases (90 eyes) of the observation group were served with bandage contact lens after Epi-LASIK.The symptoms and signs,time of corneal epithelial recovery,visual acuity and pain of postoperation of the two groups were examined within one week.Results After Epi-LASIK treatment,there was no significant difference in visual acuity between the two groups(P ＞ 0.05).At the 1 st,3rd,and 7th day after Epi-LASIK treatment,the ache grading results of the observation group were (2.53 ± 0.62),(1.39 ± 0.71),(0.07-± 0.25);and the ache grading results of control group were (3.22 ± 0.79),(1.74 ± 0.49),(0.26 ± 0.49).Pain scores of observation group were significantly lighter than that of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).After Epi-LASIK treatment,the average time of corneal wound healing in the observation group and control group were (2.80 ±0.86) days and (4.07 ±0.68) days respectively.The average time of postoperative corneal wound healing in the observation group was shorter than control group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The application of bandage contact lens on cornea epithelial healing after Epi-LASIK treatment can reduce the pain of patients and promote the recovery of cornea in myopia patients.
