ABSTRACT
A comparative analysis of clinical, instrumental and laboratory data in groups of patients with Parkinson's disease and chronic brain ischemia (stages I-II) was carried out. The information obtained in the groups showed significant differences in clinical and instrumental data that indicated the presence of chronic brain ischemia. A significant increase in molecular markers of endothelial damage comparable with the group of chronic cerebral ischemia was identified in patients with Parkinson's disease. The increase in indicators including monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, vascular endothelial growth factor and endothelin-1 is important for the verification of the disease before the appearance of symptoms of chronic cerebral ischemia in the examined groups of patients.
