[Semeiotics of incipient forms of vascular diseases of the brain and their diagnosis during preventive examinations of the population]. / Semiotika nachal'nykh form sosudistykh zabolevanii mozga i ikh diagnostika v praktike profilakticheskikh obsledovanii naseleniia.

Using formalized documentation and computerized techniques, the authors analyzed clinical, electrophysiological, and biochemical semiotics in 2180 individuals--healthy subjects, patients with subclinical and initial manifestations of cerebral circulation insufficiency, initial dyscirculatory encephalopathy developing in the presence of neurocirculatory dystonias, atherosclerosis, and arterial hypertension. The author has established characteristics of the semiotics which depend on the nature of the underlying vascular disease, the stage of the process and the patient's age. Tabulated methods and a computerized system of the diagnosis of cerebrovascular disease have been developed. They are based on the employment of a bank of clinical and physiological information used for prophylactic examinations and population screening. The social, medical and economic effectiveness of the proposed methods of the diagnosis and prevention of cerebrovascular diseases allows their recommendation for wide introduction into health care practice.

Results of clinical and physiological examinations of 389 practically healthy subjects and 96 persons with subclinical manifestations of insufficient blood supply of the brain are presented. The healthy probands showed an intensification of autonomodystonic manifestations with age, while in the persons with the subclinical manifestations of the insufficient blood supply no dependence of the symptoms on age was revealed. REG findings showed that in the healthy subjects the pulse blood flow diminished, the vascular wall tone increased, and the vascular wall elasticity decreased with age. In distinction from this the above symptoms appeared in the persons with the subclinical insufficiency as early as on the 3d decade of the life. The persons with these symptoms constitute a high-risk group and need prophylactic measures.

[Clinico-rheoencephalographic characteristics of patients with initial forms of cerebrovascular diseases accompanied by arterial hypertension]. / Kliniko-reoéntsefalograficheskaia kharakteristika bol'nykh s nachal'nymi forami sosudistykh zabolevanii mozga, soprovozhdaiushchimisia arterial'noi gipertenziei.

In 352 patients with initial signs of deficient blood supply to the brain that manifested in the presence of an elevated blood pressure the clinical picture of the cerebral hemodynamics were examined. Clinical and rheoencephalographic peculiarities of vascular dystonias, arterial hypertension and atherosclerosis with secondary hypertension were specified. It was shown that the higher the arterial pressure, the more marked the microfocal neurological symptoms and the worse the cerebral hemodynamics.
