Abstract
Myocardial infarction, stroke and venous thromboembolism, which are based on vascular thrombosis, are the leading causes of death in the entire world. Most often, these diseases develop with the aging of the human body. With age, changes in the hemocoagulation system occur, such as an increase in the level of fibrinogen, factors VIII and IX and other procoagulants without a proportional increase in anticoagulant factors, a decrease in the number of platelets and an increase in their activity, a decrease in the activity of fibrinolysis, and endothelial dysfunction develops. All this leads to an increase in the intensity of intravascular coagulation and the development of thrombosis.
