The existing system of medical care for patients with acute cerebrovascular accident of atherothrombotic genesis, namely lipid metabolism disorders, the modern evidence base for lipid-lowering therapy in this category of patients and the feasibility of interdisciplinary interaction of cardiologists and neurologists were discussed at a meeting of the expert council of cardiologists and neurologists in Moscow on 2021 July 7.

Objective: to assess the feasibility of ARBs to reduce hypoperfusion of the brain that develops in patients with arterial hypertension of 1-2 degrees. Material and methods. A study of changes in the ultrasonic Doppler index (RI resistivity index and pulsatility index PI) and the structure of neurological symptoms in patients with arterial hypertension of 1-2 degrees (n=86) due to 53-week olmesartan medoxomil reception (Cardosal®). Results. Patients with arterial hypertension of 1-2 degrees have diagnosed diffuse neurological symptoms and mild cognitive impairment. Doppler ultrasound revealed an increase in peripheral resistance index in the internal carotid and middle cerebral arteries, compared with patients without hypertension. Through 53 weeks therapy of olmesartan medoxomil (Cardosal®) observed a statistically significant decrease in peripheral vascular resistance (p
