THE FREQUENCY AND NATURE OF NEUROVEGETATIVE DISORDERS DEPENDING ON GENDER IN THE ELDERLY

Abstract

Cerebrovascular diseases are one of the most urgent and priority problems of modern medicine. With an increase in life expectancy, there is a significant increase in cerebrovascular pathology, in particular, chronic cerebral ischemia, with a clear correlation between dysfunction of the cardiovascular and other visceral systems of the body and deterioration in the state and functioning of the central nervous system (1,2). Autonomic dysfunction syndrome is currently considered as a comorbid pathology of chronic cerebral ischemia that accompanies it as it develops. With increasing age, the patient has a gradation of autonomic dysfunction. Changes occurring in the autonomic nervous system precede subsequent neurological disorders and serve as a manifestation of maladaptive reactions (3).
