自1935年发现克山病以来,人们一直公认,克山病是以心肌变性坏死为主的地方性心肌病。然而,通过楚雄克山病综合考察,科学家们运用现代科学的新理论和新技术,把对克山病的认识推进到超微结构和分子水平,结果发现,克山病实质上是一种属于地方性的线粒体心肌病。对疾病本质认识的飞跃,促进了发病机理研究的重要突破。这些重要成果具有很高的理论意义 Since the discovery of Keshan disease in 1935, it has been recognized that Keshan disease is endemic cardiomyopathy mainly caused by myocardial degeneration and necrosis. However, through the comprehensive investigation of Chuxiong Keshan disease, scientists applied the new theories and new technologies of modern science to advance the understanding of Keshan disease to the ultrastructure and molecular level. They found that Keshan disease is essentially a Local mitochondrial cardiomyopathy. A leap in understanding the nature of the disease has promoted an important breakthrough in the study of the pathogenesis. These important achievements have very high theoretical significance
