An evaluation was done of the state of bulbar microcirculation and aggregability of blood platelets in 47 patients presenting with early manifestations of cerebral circulatory insufficiency. A correlation was established between the revealed disturbances in the microcirculatory bed and augmentation of aggregational activity of thrombocytes. Computation of the integrative guide, microcirculatory-rheologic index, reflecting objectively the degree of intravascular hemocirculatory disorders has been performed.

The microcirculatory state (by the method of conjunctival biomicroscopy) and ADP-induced platelet aggregation were examined in 42 patients with atherosclerotic and 34 patients with involutional depression both before and after the treatment which included vasoactive preparations and calcium antagonists. It was determined vascular and intravascular alterations predominance and increase of platelet aggregation in patients with atherosclerotic depression independently of leading syndrome, in patients with involutional depression with anxiety prevalence as well as in patients in stuporous state. The tendency was revealed of such disturbances increasing as for as psychosis was extended.

POL were found to be increased in patients with atherosclerotic depression irrespective of the syndrome, and in involutional depression with anxious symptomatology, as well as in those patients in stuporous state, this being accounted by a decreased provision of the organism with antioxidants as well as by an inadequate activity of antioxidant enzymes; high incidence rate of intravascular and vascular changes was also noted in the above patient populations. Tocoferolum acetatum and corinfar potentiated antiaggregational and spasmolytic actions of vasoactive preparations, which fact made for an earlier eradication of microcirculatory disturbances, decrease in the free radical oxidation activity and recovery of those patients getting out of the psychotic state.
