Abstract:The daily behavior of living organisms provides feedback on the surrounding environment and its circadian rhythm. The mechanism of circadian rhythm disturbances in the development of cardiovascular diseases has gradually become one of the hot topics at home and abroad. The cardiovascular system is susceptible to circadian rhythm disturbances that cause excessive activation or inactivation, leading to various types of acute cardiovascular events. A large number of studies have confirmed the characteristics of high incidence of stroke, myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death in the early morning. Disorders of circadian rhythm are considered to be a key risk factor for increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Disorders of the circadian rhythm can be caused by affecting the abnormal expression of clock genes, activating or inhibiting various cytokines, and changing the homeostasis of the cardiovascular system. Atherosclerosis. Pharmacological intervention and other methods can adjust the body’s circadian rhythm, improve blood pressure, blood lipids, fibrinolytic system and inflammatory factor response to treat atherosclerosis.
