Pathological process
A pathological process is a sequence of reactions that naturally occurs in the body to the damaging effect of a pathogenic factor.
The pathological process begins from the moment the pathogenic factor influences the cells and tissues of the body. This impact leads to a disruption of homeostasis and triggers a chain of sequential reactions of the body aimed at eliminating the damage and restoring homeostasis.
The pathological process proceeds through certain stages - from initiation to outcome. At each stage, characteristic morphological and functional changes occur in cells and tissues. Thus, the pathological process is a natural sequence of reactions of the body to a damaging influence. Understanding the mechanisms and patterns of the pathological process is necessary for adequate diagnosis and effective treatment of diseases.
A pathological process is the natural occurrence of changes in tissues due to exposure to pathogenic factors. In this case, the response of cells to damage can be long-lasting, which determines the course of the pathological process. As part of the formation of the pathological process, some cells die, while others replace damaged ones, or participate in hyperplastic processes, as a result of which new full-fledged structures are formed. Thus, it can be noted that such a process has a sufficient duration. The duration of the pathological process depends on many
