[Prognostic criteria of the efficacy of magnetic and magnetic-laser therapy in patients with the initial stages of hypertension]. / Prognosticheskie kriterii éffektivnosti magnitnoi i magnitolazernoi terapii u bol'nykh s nachal'nymi stadiiami gipertonicheskoi bolezni.

Study of the efficacy of a course of exposures to travelling pulsed magnetic field and magnetic laser sessions in 97 patients with stages I-II essential hypertension showed a high efficacy of travelling pulsed magnetic field in patients with hyperkinetic hemodynamics and initially just slightly shifted blood rheology and platelet hemostasis. Magnetic laser therapy is more effective in patients with eukinetic and hypokinetic hemodynamics and initially sharply expressed disorders of blood rheology and platelet hemostasis.

[Metabolic responses to ergometry and their role in the development of physical work capacity in patients with ischemic heart disease and different types of hemodynamics]. / Metabolicheskie reaktsii pri érgometrii i ikh rol' v formirovanii fizicheskoi rabotosposobnosti u bol'nykh ishemicheskoi bolezn'iu serdtsa s razlichnymi tipami gemodinamiki.

Blood coagulation and fibrinolysis, lipid and lactate levels and some enzyme activities were measured in 283 coronary patients during bicycle ergometry. Hemodynamic type was established on the basis of the cardiac index. A negative correlation is demonstrated between the cardiac output and blood lipids. Fibrinolytic reserve was intact in 32.3% of patients with eu- and hyperkinetic hemodynamic types and in just 9.3% of patients with hypokinetic hemodynamics. The latter type was associated with the greatest disturbance of aerobic/anaerobic metabolism ratios. The extent of disturbance in lipid metabolism and blood coagulation is closely correlated with hemodynamic types that reflect the state of myocardial contractility.

[Multifactorial analysis of the physical work capacity of patients with chronic ischemic heart disease]. / Mnogofaktornyi analiz fizicheskoi rabotosposobnosti u bol'nykh khronicheskoi ishemicheskoi bolezn'iu serdtsa.

A series of 512 patients with coronary heart disease were examined using a complex of clinical, instrumental and biochemical methods. The capacity for physical work was determined by bicycle ergometry. Fifty-four signs were studied in relation to the exercise tolerance. On the basis of the findings about the closeness of the correlation between these signs and the patients' capacity for physical work, 19 prognostically significant criteria were identified. A multi-factorial clinico-functional and biochemical classification of coronary heart disease patients with regard to three levels of the capacity for physical work was elaborated which made it possible to develop a method of the complex assessment and prediction of the capacity for physical work.
