Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the association between early signs of renal dysfunction detected by ultrasound imaging (USI) and cognitive impairment in middle-aged patients with discirculatory encephalopathy (DE). The study included 152 participants: the main group (n=56) — patients with DE and renal dysfunction; the comparison group (n=55) — patients with DE without significant renal insufficiency; and the control group (n=41) — healthy individuals.
