[Role of health centers in reduction of morbidity in women employed in the construction industry]. / Zabolevaemost zhenshchin, rabotaiushchikh v stroitelnom proizvodstve, i rol ozdorovitelnykh tsentrov v eë snizhenii.

The study covered the health status of 4500 women of various building occupations. Locomotor diseases turned out to take the first place among other somatic diseases. Disorders of larynx, ear and nose are widely spread. Chronic tonsillitis and its decompensation, pharingolaryngitis, otitis are more frequent and more severe in women engaged into production. The allergic dermatoses diagnosed in female builders were proved to be occupational. Female engineering staff has higher prevalence of gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, neural and urinary diseases. For better health of women engaged into the building industry the measures of improving the work conditions and special therapeutic rehabilitation for the risk group were suggested.

[Comparative study of the action of Finoptin, Korinfar and Capoten in patients with stage II hypertensive disease]. / Sravnitel'noe izuchenie aktivnosti finoptina, korinfara i kapotena u bol'nykh gipertonicheskoi bolezn'iu vtoroi stadii.

The effects of Finoptin, Corinfar, and Capoten were examined in 154 patients with Stage II hypertensive disease. The calcium antagonists Finoptin and Corinfar, as well as Capoten were equal in lowering blood pressure and having a heterodirectional action on cardiodynamics: Finoptin exerted a positive inotropic effect in 46.3% and a negative one in 53.7%, corinfar in 66.7 and 33.3%, respectively, and Capoten in 37.5 and 62.5%. The baseline hemodynamic type fails to predict how the myocardium in a particular patient will respond to the antihypertensive drug. Nevertheless, Corinfar is more preferable in patients with hypertensive disease attended by hypokinetic circulation, Capoten is more preferable in those with its hyperkinetic variant. The baseline hemodynamic type makes an insignificant contribution to the activity of Finoptin.

[Comparison of the hemodynamic effects of Corinfar in patients with neurocirculatory dystonia and hypertensive disease]. / Sravnitel'noe vliianie korinfara na gemodinamiku u bol'nykh neirotsirkuliatornoi distoniei i gipertonicheskoi bolezn'iu.

Echocardiography was used to study the cardio- and hemodynamic effects of corinfar in 22 patients with neurocirculatory dystonia and 24 with hypertensive disease. The agent showed a pronounced hyperdynamic effect in patients with neurocirculatory dystonia, whereas it significantly lowered systolic, diastolic, mean blood pressures in those with hypertensive disease, by facilitating left ventricular performance without hyperkinemia. It is concluded that neurocirculatory dystonia and hypertensive disease are different diseases, by judging from the cardio- and hemodynamic effects of the calcium antagonist in these patients.
