[Data of coronary angiography and rheological properties of erythrocytes in non ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome].

We assessed character and extent of coronary vessels involvement in 27 patients with non ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS) and compared angiography data with rheological properties of erythrocytes of patients and 30 practically healthy men. Stenoses of main branches of coronary vessels were found almost in 3/4 of cases. In 4 patients without stenoses in main branches of coronary arteries we revealed lowering of blood flow velocity related to small vessel disease (syndrome X).

[Activity of angiotensin converting enzyme in blood serum of patients with stable effort angina].

Aim: To study activity of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) in blood serum of patients with stable effort angina.

Material And Methods: ACE activity was measured in 11 patients (age 35-45, mean 46.5+/-1.

[The biorhythmological types of work capacity and the late prognosis for patients who have had a myocardial infarct].

The authors analyze postmyocardial infarction 10-year survival and frequency of repeated cardiac accidents (fatal and nonfatal MI and sudden cardiac death). Biorhythmological types of mental and muscular performance were involved in long-term MI prognosis. Of 412 males who had their first myocardial infarction at the age under 59, 10-year prognosis was poor for those with early pattern of efficient work vs good prognosis in those who work most efficiently in the evening.

[Experience with the use of streptokinase in acute myocardial infarct at the prehospital stage].

The authors analyze the experience gained with the systemic thrombolytic therapy (STLT) at the prehospital stage of the treatment of acute myocardial infarction by specialized emergency cardiological teams. The screening of patients to be given STLT was performed via the remote diagnostic center. STLT was provided to 43 patients who were given intravenous injections of 500,000 PU streptokinase (Avalizin, GDR) for 15-30 minutes.
