Conclusions\: The occurrence of changes in the concentration\/level of inflammatory mediators \- proinflammatory cytokine, positive acute phase proteins \- is related to the ABI index, the time of pain sensation and the intensity of chronic pain experienced in relation to individual patient coping strategies in the examined and control group. \(A\) Patients in the study group experiencing pain have a significantly higher level of fibrinogen and CRP compared to patients not experiencing it in the control group. The occurrence of an increase in CRP level significantly correlates negatively with the ABI index and positively with the intensity of pain, and as a result affects the taking of negative and neutral strategies for dealing with pain in the study group. \(B\) Keeping the fibrinogen level above the upper limit of normal limits the ABI index and participates in the gradual narrowing of the vessel lumen also in patients with atherosclerosis of other arteries. The highest levels of this positive acute phase protein occur throughout the sample at an index value of 0.3\-0.8. High levels of fibrinogen positively correlate with the time of feeling pain and weakly, or moderately with a reduced catastrophic and praying \/ hopi"]
