[Role of deficient cerebral circulation in selecting the treatment methods for patients with circulatory
Insights
Atherosclerotic discirculatory encephalopathy is often caused by damage to the brachiocephalic trunk, impacting cerebral circulation. Arterio-venous hemodynamics and affected artery basins correlate with disease severity and symptoms.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Vascular Medicine
- Radiology
Context:
- Investigates pathophysiologic mechanisms of impaired cerebral circulation in atherosclerotic discirculatory encephalopathy.
- Utilizes advanced diagnostic tools including ultrasound, radiopaque investigation, electroencephalography, and computed tomography.
- Examines a cohort of 244 patients diagnosed with atherosclerotic discirculatory encephalopathy.
Purpose:
- To elucidate the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms contributing to cerebral circulation impairment.
- To identify the primary vascular culprits in the development and progression of atherosclerotic discirculatory encephalopathy.
- To establish correlations between affected cerebral artery basins and clinical/morphological manifestations.
Summary:
- Presents findings on the pathophysiologic mechanisms of impaired cerebral circulation in 244 patients with atherosclerotic discirculatory encephalopathy.
- Highlights the significant role of vascular damage in the brachiocephalic trunk in disease genesis.
- Establishes the influence of arterio-venous cerebral hemodynamics and identifies topographic correlations between affected arteries and disease signs.
Impact:
- Underscores the prevalent role of brachiocephalic trunk vascular damage in atherosclerotic discirculatory encephalopathy.
- Confirms the influence of arterio-venous cerebral hemodynamics on disease progression.
- Reveals topographic correlations between affected cerebral arteries and neurological/morphological signs, aiding in diagnosis and management.
Abstract:
The results of studying the pathophysiologic mechanisms of the impairement in cerebral circulation in 244 patients with atherosclerotic discirculatory encephalopathy with the use of the ultrasound and radiopaque investigation, electroencephalography and computed tomography of the brain are presented. The prevalent role of vascular damage of the brachiocephalic trunk in the genesis of the different stages of atherosclerotic discirculatory encephalopathy is noted. The influence of arterio-venous cerebral hemodynamics on the development and progressing of discirculatory encephalopathy was established. The topographic correlations of the basin of the arteries affected and neurologic and morphologic signs of discirculatory encephalopathy were revealed.
