title: [Therapeutic use of acetylsalicylic acid in diabetics].
abstract: Aterosclerosis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetics. Macrovascular diseases--myocardial infarction, cerebral vascular accident, ischemic lower extremities--start in persons with diabetes earlier and in a bigger scope then in non-diabetics. Development of these changes is determined by diabetic vasculopathy which is connected with endothelial dysfunction, hypercoagulation state, and platelet abnormalities. Treatment of a patient with diabetes is based on compensation of diabetes and management of hypertension and dyslipidaemia. Drugs that inhibit platelets constitute an important part of prevention of cardiovascular disabilities in diabetics.
