PATHOGENETIC APPROACH TO THE TREATMENT OF EARLY STAGES OF CEREBROVASCULAR PATHOLOGY
Abstract
Cerebrovascular pathology is one of the major causes of death rate and the leading cause of disability of population in the whole world. Search of new targets for nosotropic treatment of the initial stages of cerebrovascular insufficiency is especially actual. Regulation of apoptosis can have a positive influence on the processes of adaptation to the effects of vascular risk factors. Influence on the function of endothelia is perspective from the point of view of prevention and deceleration of progress of vascular defeat on the earliest stages of process. The aim of our research was clinical accounts score influence of L-arginine (Tivortin) on the vasomotor endothelium function and apoptosis in patients with early stages of cerebrovascular diseases.
Keywords:
initial stages of cerebrovascular insufficiency, vasomotor function of the endothelium, apoptosis.References
