ABSTRACT
The review presents an analysis of studies on the role of the intestinal microbiota and microbiome in lipid metabolism and the development of dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. The role of the intestine as a metabolic organ with a multifactorial strain evolution, involved in lipid metabolism, cholesterol homeostasis and enterohepatic circulation is shown. The influence of microbial imbalance on the development of dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis is considered. Special attention is paid to preventive therapy with hypolipidemic probiotics. It is shown that the use of probiotics with hypolipidemic properties and consisting of a mixture of such strains asLactobacillus plantarumCECT7527, CET7528 and CECT7529, mixtures ofLactobacillus acidophilusLa-5,Bifidobacterium lactisBB-12,Bifidobacterium animalis lactisBB-12 contribute to reducing the level of LDL-C, CCS, TG, are safe and well tolerated, can be used as an adjuvant non-drug therapy in combination with hypolipidemic drugs for dyslipidemia, multifocal atherosclerosis.

The efficacy and safety of axamon was studied in a trial with parallel groups in patients, aged 65-88 years, with movement and cognitive disorders in the residual period of stroke. Twenty-five patients received basic therapy and 25 patients were treated with axamon as an add-on drug in dosage of 20 mg 3 times a day during 12 weeks. Along with the neurological examination, a battery of neuropsychological scales and tests was used. The reduction of cognitive and movement deficits was observed. Axamon promotes the optimization of restoration potential of patients in the residual period of stroke.
