Syndrome of hypothyroidism as a factor of cardiovascular pathology development (literature review)

Abstract

The article presents pathogenetic data on the development of cardiovascular pathology in reduced thyroid function. Нypothyroidism is associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, chronic heart failure and cardiovascular mortality, regardless of gender, age and previous cardiovascular disease. This leads to the search for additional influence on the pathogenetic mechanisms of hypothyroidism in order to effectively treat these threatening manifestations and consequences of the disease.
