- diabetes, the incidence of cerebrovascular disease in diabetes patients is 21 times higher than that of the general population, and 20% of cerebrovascular disease patients have a history of diabetes.

- Chronic bronchitis, patients with chronic bronchitis may have a 4 times higher risk of cerebrovascular disease than the general population.
- Cervical spondylosis affects the blood supply to the brain, which is prone to cerebrovascular disease.
- Blood disease: Blood disease is one of the causes of cerebrovascular disease.
