Announcement:

Obesity and insulin resistance are not just risk factors, but drivers of vascular pathology of the brain. The expert - endocrinologist, leading researcher of the Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution "Russian Center for Neurology and Neurosciences" Ksenia Valentinovna Antonova - will tell:

  • Why the 'obesity paradox' disappears when assessing visceral fat;
  • How Metabolic Syndrome More Than Doubles Stroke Risk;
  • Why Glycemic Control Doesn't Work in Acute Stroke;
  • How does the drug Mexidol affect insulin resistance, oxidative stress and microcirculation?

According to the results of the EPICA study, significant improvement in the NIHSS and mRS scales was observed in patients with stroke and type 2 diabetes while taking Mexidol.

This video lecture is a must-see for neurologists, cardiologists, endocrinologists and therapists!
