Study the mechanisms of atherosclerosis based on a comparative study of physical and chemical properties of lipid tissues at various localization with subsequent development of concept of treatment and prevention.
The chemical and physical properties of different lipids of body. The clinical part of the work is a prospective randomized comparative controlled clinical trial of patients with atherosclerotic diseases. Developed the concept of "limited biological resources" of the body based on the increase in the expenditure of energy reserves of the body, allowing a critical look at overweight. The role of overweight in the development of atheromatous fat was revealed. The positive results from the weight loss in patients with atherosclerotic disease were drawn. Developed the metabolic concept of atherosclerosis associated with evolutionary aging and conversion of lipids in hard atherosclerotic fat.

full recovery from atherosclerotic diseases
Regression of atherosclerosis plaque in vessel: imaging methods (GE Vivid 7 Ultrasound; GE Healthcare Worldwide USA, Michigan), and computed tomography scans (AG Siemens Somatom Emotion 6, Germany, Muenchen). Improvement of clinical condition: by measurement of clinical presence status.
Time frame: for 12 months
normalised laboratory and instrumental data
Weight loss: Tanita-SC330S Body Composition Analyzer (Tanita Corp., Tokyo, Japan) including weight (kg), body mass index (BMI, kg/m2), body composition parameters, including as fat mass (in % of total body weight and total kg), visceral fat rating (units), fat free mass (kg), total body water (in % and kg), muscle mass (in % and kg), bone mass (in % and kg), metabolic age (years), basal metabolic rate (kcal per day), and bioimpedance (Ohms). Rate of blood circulation: Dopler Ultrasound (GE Healthcare Worldwide USA, Michigan). Bone density: bone densitometry (Lunar Achilles Express Ultrasound; GE Healthcare USA, Madison). Imaging of internal organs and blood vessel diameter: computed tomography scans (AG Siemens Somatom Emotion 6, Germany, Muenchen). General clinical study of blood and urine, liver and kidneys function tests, glucose and lipids levels. Clinical condition in dynamics: clinical presence status.
Time frame: for 12 month
