        "summary": "A neurologist from the University of Indonesia Hospital has highlighted that both uncontrollable genetic factors and modern lifestyle changes are contributing to a rising incidence of stroke. The risk has escalated from a historical 'one in six' to a current 'one in four' probability, driven by poor diet, sedentary habits, and stress. The doctor emphasised that conditions like hypertension, diabetes, and family history significantly increase vulnerability to the vascular disease.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - Dr.\u00a0Ramdinal Aviesena Zairinal, Sp.N(K), a\nneurologist and neurocritical care subspecialist from the University of\nIndonesia Hospital (RSUI), stated that stroke can be triggered by\nvarious risk factors, particularly those affecting blood vessels. Stroke\nis a vascular disease that attacks the blood vessels of the brain, so\nproblems with blood vessels can potentially trigger the risk of\nstroke.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen a stroke occurs, there are indeed many risk factors involved.\nThere is high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, and\nuncontrollable factors, for example, heredity,\u201d said the doctor, who is\nfamiliarly called Sena, to ANTARA in Jakarta on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>There are several other factors that can also cause a person to\nsuffer a stroke. For instance, a genetic history from the family,\nabnormalities of the blood vessels, or blood viscosity disorders can\nalso cause a person to have a stroke.<\/p>\n<p>Sena noted that many studies have shown that a family history does\nindeed increase the risk of stroke. In fact, literature suggests that up\nto 20 percent of patients who experience a stroke have a family history\nof the condition.<\/p>\n<p>Sena also highlighted that over time, stroke cases are increasingly\nemerging, likely influenced by rising public awareness of health and\ntechnological developments. \u201cIndeed, stroke is becoming a challenge. I\nstill remember when perhaps 20 years ago the motto was \u2018one in six\u2019 will\nexperience a stroke. But now it can even be \u2018one in four\u2019, meaning it is\nincreasingly common,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Changes in lifestyle, Sena continued, are a likely cause of the\nincrease in stroke patients. This is because, over time, there have been\nmany changes, including dietary patterns shifting from natural food to\nultra-processed food. Furthermore, technological advancements that help\npeople have led to reduced physical movement. These changes in habits\nincrease the risk of vascular diseases, including stroke. \u201cBut because\nof how people rarely exercise, smoke, and consume unhealthy foods, that\nis what makes them at risk. And we also cannot deny the stressor\nexperienced with the advancement of social media in today\u2019s era,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>",
