Winter is the peak season for acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Cold weather can lead to elevated blood pressure and cerebral vasospasm, increasing the likelihood of cerebrovascular disease. Myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death are also associated with cold temperatures. Studies have shown that for every 1°C decrease in temperature, the incidence of heart disease increases by approximately 2%. Traditional treatment strategies typically involve methods such as reducing fat, improving metabolism, dilating blood vessels, or clearing vascular blockages. However, these strategies still have many limitations.
