title: [The alterations of lipid spectrum in patients with migraine].
abstract: The paper presents lipid spectrum in 40 patients aged 19-50 years with migraine. Migraine is one of the possible causes of stroke development at young age. There were found significant atherogenic changes of blood serum lipid spectrum, which didn't depend on clinical peculiarities of the disease, but became more pronounced as far as the level of the situational anxiety (according to Spilberger's questionnaire) increased. It is suggested that the changes in lipid spectrum may be some components in complex alterations of the functions of structures of limbic-reticular complex and humoral-endocrine homeostasis which are both genetically determined and acquired. These changes are quite important in pathogenesis of migraine and may be considered as the risk-factors of the development of cerebral stroke at young age.
