[Functional interrelations between the thermo-topographic indicators in healthy persons with hemodynamic status of the body]. / Funktsional'nye vzaimosviazi pokazatelei termotopografii zdorovykh lits s gemodinamicheskim statusom organizma.

++Thermo-topography was studied by decimeter radiothermometry on a DPT-30 apparatus which determined the integral ++sub-superficial temperature of a tissue layer at a depth of 3-5 cm. Thermal probing was performed at point 41 onto the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the human body. Hemodynamics was explored by tetrapolar thoracic rheography. A total of 83 young healthy males were studied. Associated changes in temperatures and hemodynamic parameters were established. The radioluminance thermal profile of patients with tachycardia was significantly altered as compared to those with bradycardia. The ++sub-superficial temperatures in the proximal regions of the body rose by 0.3-0.7 degree C. The feet in subjects with rapid pulse were colder, which led to significantly higher values of distal and proximal lower extremity, temperature gradients. In persons with hyperkinetic circulation, the temperatures in the ++cranio-corporeal regions were significantly greater by 0.2-0.6 degree C than those in subjects with eu- and hypokinetic circulations.

[Dynamics of bundle-branch block in the acute period of myocardial infarct]. / Dinamika blokady vetvei puchka Gisa v ostrom periode infarkta miokarda

On the basis of a randomized analysis of ECG of 200 patients in the acute phase of myocardial infarction the relative incidence of partial blocks was demonstrated: 33% among the survivors, and 54% among the hospital mortality cases. The prognostic value of the development of blocks was supported by the fact that it corresponded to further aggravation of the clinical course--increased cardiac pains, manifestations of cardiac insufficiency, development of arrhythmias. The bundle of His branch block may mask the infarction changes of ECG. Signs of incomplete blocking were revealed that include a leftward deviation of the axis, increase of R-wave amplitude in the 1 and aVL leads, appearance of enhancement of the S-wave in the II and V5-6 leads that preceed a complete blocking of the appropriate branch. The obtained data indicate the necessity of tracing the intraventricular conduction in the course of ECG monitoring during the acute period of myocardial infarction.
