MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ARTERIES OF THE SMALL CIRCULATORY CIRCLE AGAINST THE BACKGROUND OF EXPERIMENTAL DIABETES

Diabetes mellitus is a global problem of the whole world. According to WHO, today about 422 million people suffer from diabetes, which is 6.028% of the total population of the planet. Diabetes incidence statistics are growing every year. If the situation develops at the same pace, then by 2025 the number of patients with diabetes will increase by 2 times. By 2030, diabetes mellitus will become the 7th cause of death worldwide. Vascular diseases occupy an important place in the structure of the incidence of diabetes mellitus and are manifested by organ infarction and vascular insufficiency. The severity of angiopathy depends on the degree and duration of hyperglycemia. Timely and correctly selected insulin therapy, maintaining blood glucose levels close to normal values slows down and stops the development of vascular complications.
