[Autonomic disorders in the formation of the clinical manifestations of the initial forms of cerebrovascular lesions].

Among 103 persons aged 20 to 57 years, related occupationally to emotional stress, 48 persons were found to have vegetative dystonia, 28 initial manifestations of cerebral circulation failure, and 27 persons appeared healthy. The determination of the character and intensity of vegetative manifestations has shown that in the formation of vegetative dystonia, of paramount importance are cardiovascular and gastrointestinal disorders. Vegetative manifestations associated with initial manifestations of cerebral circulation failure include, in addition, respiratory disturbances and impairment of sleep function, which may reflect more deep changes in the activity of the regulatory apparatus in dyshemias of organic nature. A relationship was discovered between vegetative lesions and emotional disorders, particularly the level of anxiety, as was the contingency of vegetative dysfunction and decreased emotional stress tolerance.
