[The relation of uric acid metabolism to transferase activity in patients with ischemic heart disease and hypertension]. / Sviaz' obmena mochevoi kisloty s aktivnost'iu transferaz u bol'nykh ishemicheskoi bolezn'iu serdtsa i gipertonicheskoi bolezn'iu.

Blood plasma uric acid and urea content and aspartate aminotransferase activity were studied in 177 patients with ischemic heart disease and essential hypertension. It was established that the blood uric acid level did not depend essentially on the transamination processes in patients with ischemic heart disease but was closely connected with transamination processes and amino acid metabolism in patients with essential hypertension.

[The orthostatic test with arterial hypertension patients]. / Ortostaticheskaia proba u bol'nykh arterial'noi gipertoniei.

The initial level of the systolic and diastolic arterial pressure (AP) effects the character and value of changes of these indices during the orthostatic test. With elevation of the initial AP level both the healthy and patients with arterial hypertension (AH) showed a tendency to a more pronounced reduction of the systolic AP and to a lesser increase of the diastolic AP in the orthostatic position. In-equal initial AP, patients with AH did not reveal any characteristic differences as compared with the healthy in the response of the AP to orthostasis.
