CLINICAL FEATURES OF CEREBRAL STROKE AMONG REPRESENTATIVES OF DIFFERENT GENDER AND AGE
The results of a comparative study of 124 patients of different sex and age who underwent ischemic (n=80) and hemorrhagic (n = 44) strokes are presented. For women of elderly and senile age, more typical, in comparison with men, left brain damage (n = 34; 63,0 %), the diversity and severity of complaints at a high frequency of anxiety and depression and cognitive disorders. Possibilities of restoration of the disturbed functions at young age are higher in men, on average - at women, in elderly and senile - chances are equalized. The revealed distinctions are connected with known structural and physiological features of nervous, cardiovascular and endocrine systems, and they need to be considered in the course of diagnostics and treatment.
