[Comparison of results of the fluorescent method in the determination of atherogenic lipids and the data of biochemical methods].

Devices based on assessment of fluorescence of special "probes" incorporated in lipoprotein particles of the blood were developed at Research Institute of Physicochemical Medicine of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. The resultant value is considered to reflect the sum of total cholesterol and triglycerides. The present study was aimed at elucidation of the relationship between the fluorescent and enzymatic methods, the enzymatic method realized by the Centrifikhem autoanalyzer.

[Newly occurring stenocardia: the role of fibrinogen in the prognosis of a clinical remission over the course of a 1- to 1.5-year follow-up].

A repeated 13.5-month follow-up of 51 patients after hospitalization for angina of new onset showed a clinical remission in 13 (26%) patients. According to the primary examination findings, the patients with clinical remission had lower fibrinogen levels than those without remission (432 +/- 94 versus 542 +/- 196 mg/dl; p = 0.
