Un detaliu pe care îl poți vedea în oglindă poate fi un indiciu pentru sănătate. Semnul ca poți suferi un AVC • Newsweek România

A recent study indicates that xanthelasma, yellowish deposits around the eyelids, may signal increased cardiovascular risk. Analyzing data from nearly 36,000 individuals, researchers found that those with xanthelasma had a higher incidence of heart attacks and strokes over time. While xanthelasma itself is not a direct cause of these events, it may serve as a visible marker for underlying health issues. The study suggests that individuals with xanthelasma should consider evaluating their cardiovascular risk factors, such as cholesterol levels and hypertension. However, sudden symptoms like facial asymmetry or weakness should prompt immediate medical attention.
