ABSTRACT
It was shown that concentration of uric acid in blood is dependent on person's neurotic type. People combining high working potential, assertions and work concentration with continuous hypersympathycotonia exhibit psychosomatic predisposition and are at risk of cardiovascular pathology. Neuromuscular relaxation and cognitive-behavior training can be recommended to prevent cardiovascular disorders.

Laboratory, clinical, and pathophysiological methods were used to examine servicemen presenting with hyperuricemia. Pronounced hypersympaticotony was accompanied by stabilization of cardiac rhythm. Neurotic personality profile was identified in 48% of the subjects, psychotic in 17.3%, and undefined in 34.6%. The elevated plasma uric acid level was shown to be a factor associated with the neurotic psychotype. There was no correlation between other hematological characteristics and personality psychotype. The examined subjects exhibited high working capacity and level of ambition. Inability to take mind off the pressure of work creates psychosomatic predisposition for and risk of cardiovascular pathology strengthened by permanent hypersympaticotony. It is proposed to teach the subjects like those included in the study to reach neuromuscular relaxation in combination with cognitive-behavioural training as a means of preventing the development of cardiovascular pathology.

To reveal the prenosological changes occurred in soldiers' organism the dynamics of blood indices (laboratory-and-clinical method) and physiological system parameters (computer express reflexodiagnostics-programme "Diacoms") were studied. 192 soldiers serving for the fixed period were investigated; the mean age is 20.0 +/- 1.7. The season oscillations of insulin, cortizol, immunoglobulin M, adrenoreactivity levels were detected. The IgG increased level was observed in 38% soldiers and the increased circulating immune complexes--in 56%. The decrease in insulin secretion was also noted. Soldiers born in Moscow and those who were born in other places had different blood indices. Strain of blood indices was accompanied by the decrease in common functional state. The persons with uric acid increased level appeared to be more adapted to chronic stress situation. The results obtained show the necessity to correct the mentioned functional states in order to prevent the pathology development.
