Relevance. Morpho-functional changes in peripheral circulation established in type 1 diabetes mellitus correlate with changes in central hemodynamics, allowing the use of microcirculation indicators as diagnostic and prognostic criteria for assessing the degree of functional vascular disorders. Identifcation of microcirculation features of the blood by the method of laser Doppler flowmetry in children with different experience of type 1 diabetes in key age categories.Materials and methods. The study included 67 children with type 1 diabetes mellitus aged 12-15 years with an experience of the disease from six months to ten years. The comparison group consisted of 38 healthy children. The state of the microvasculature was assessed by laser Doppler flowmetry using a laser analyzer for capillary blood flow LAKK-OP.Results. In children with an experience of type 1 diabetes of less than two years, microcirculation disorders in periodontal tissues correspond to the hyperemic form, accompanied by increased perfusion, a decrease in the amplitude of low-frequency oscillations, increased heart rate, high blood flling, and blood flow bypass. For children with an endocrinopathy experience of more than three years, microcirculation disorders correspond to a stagnant form, combined with a decrease in perfusion due to stagnation of blood in the venular link, endothelial domination with suppression of neurogenic and cardiac fluctuations, low efciency and redistribution of blood flow in favor of the nutritive link.Conclusions. With the increase in experience, the degree of compensation of type 1 diabetes, the progression of diabetic microangiopathy, it is advisable to designate two stages of development of microcirculatory disorders. Early – compensatory with active adaptation, including neurogenic and endothelial regulation mechanisms. Late – decompensation with passive adaptation, supporting the effectiveness of microcirculation due to myogenic control of regulation, shunting and increasing the rate of blood outflow.

Abstract. Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the vasodilatation and vasomotion response to local heating in the cutaneous microcirculation of the ankle, dorsum of foot and forearm. Recently, it has been suggested that this response differs between the forearm and the leg. Probands and methods: Twenty-nine young healthy adults were recruited. They underwent measurement by laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) in three sites of the body (ankle, dorsum of foot, forearm). Percentage change of the median flow of the skin before and after provocation and normalised perfusion flow to maximal dilation (cutaneous vascular conductance - CVC % Max) during short provocation test were monitored. Spectral analysis of laser Doppler flowmetry signals was performed using the fast Fourier transform algorithm. Results: Significant differences were found in CVC % Max between ankle/dorsum (45.18 ± 6.38% Max vs. 51.24 ± 6.87% Max, respectively; p < 0.05) and between ankle/forearm (45.18 ± 6.38% Max vs. 54.49 ± 5.37% Max, respectively; p < 0.05). Percentage change of flux after provocation has revealed significant differences between ankle/dorsum (394.1 ± 204.5% vs. 577.4 ± 273.5%, respectively; p < 0.05) and ankle/forearm (394.1 ± 204.5% vs. 637.1 ± 324.7%, respectively; p < 0.05). Total spectral activity of vasomotion has differed between ankle/dorsum and ankle/forearm: 69.59 [49.58 - 96.04] vs. 93.01 [73.15 - 121.8] (p < 0.05) and 69.59 [49.58 - 96.04] vs. 107.5 [80.55 - 155.8] (p < 0.05), respectively. Conclusions: Cutaneous microcirculation exhibits regional differences. Significant variability of function between ankle and dorsum of foot suggests that leg microcirculation is not uniform.
