Summary:
Cerebrovascular diseases (CVP) retain in the modern world a leading position in the rating of the incidence and disability of the population of most countries. Metabolic disorders, being important risk factors for the development of CVP, are also widespread in populations regardless of gender and age. The frequent combination of CVP and metabolic disorders, including somatic and abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, hyperinosulinemia, hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia, is a bridgehead for the rapid development of complications. One of the early manifestations of such a comorbid union is the formation of vegetative disorders. It is known that vegetative disorders are most often secondary, that is, they arise against the background of existing somatic or mental diseases, but can also develop when exposed to psychogenic factors (stress reaction, adaptation disorders, psychosomatic diseases, anxious and depressive disorders). The most common causes of the development of autonomic dysfunction are organic diseases of the nervous system and somatic diseases, including metabolic and hormonal.
