[Hyperventilation syndrome in bronchial asthma, essential hypertension and organic neurosis. Clinical picture and external respiration function].

The external respiration function was studied in 100 patients with hyperventilation syndrome (HVS) divided into 3 groups: 40 patients with HVS and bronchial asthma (group 1) consisting of 15 males and 25 females (age median--45 years, 25 percentile--37 years, 75 percentile--53 years); 39 patients with HVS and essential hypertension (group 2) consisting of 8 males and 31 females (age median 49, 25 percentile--40 years, 75 percentile--57 years); 21 patients with HVS without concurrent somatic diseases of group 3 (7 males, 14 females, age median 45 years, 25 percentile--28 years, 75 percentile--45 years). It is shown that different disorders of pulmonary ventilation correspond to different clinical manifestations of HVS. Thus, in bronchial obstruction (group 1) HVS manifests with "weak respiration", in restrictive pulmonary disorders (group 2) HVS manifests as "heavy respiration", in high parameters of bronchial permeability (group 3)--"shallow respiration".

[Visceral neuroses: clinical approaches to the problem].

Visceral neuroses are regarded as psychosomatic pathology represented by functional symptom complexes common for both psychic (personality, psychopathologic disorders of anxietyphobic, affective, hypochondriac spectrum) and somatic pathology. Two hundreds fourteen patients: 67 with hyperventilation syndrome (HVS), 77 with Da Costa syndrome (DCS), 70 with irritable bowl syndrome (IBS) have been studied. The study suggest that visceral neuroses represent a group of independent diseases.

[Anxious-phobic disorders in patients with dyspnea].

The examination included 35 patients (21 women, 14 men, mean age 47.2 +/- 2.4 years) with anxious-phobic disorders (APD) and dyspnea phenomena combined bronchial asthma (BA) and hyperventilation syndrome (HVS).

[Clinical course, internal picture of the disease and pathogenic reactions in patients with bronchial asthma].

Aim: To study clinical features of bronchial asthma (BA) associated with internal picture and nosogenic reactions.

Material And Methods: Clinical features of BA were studied in 108 patients (38 males and 70 females, mean age 44.7 +/- 1.

[Clinical aspects of somatic disease and internal course of the disease (heart ischemia and bronchial asthma model)].

Criteria of subjective severity (SS) and subjective control of the condition (SC) associated with establishment of the disease internal picture (DIP) were determined in 67 patients with verified coronary heart disease (CHD) and 68 with verified bronchial asthma (BA). Essential for SS were: severity of the subjective symptoms, features of the somatic condition debut, the speed of the disease progression. Essential for SC were the following components: effectiveness of self-care, severity of noticeable or ugly symptoms, features of the triggers (attack provokers).

[Effect of interferon on the course of experimental E coli-induced pyelonephritis].

The effect of the type I interferon on the development and process of experimental pyelonephritis caused by E. coli was studied on mice weighing 12 to 14 g. Interferon was administered intraperitoneally in a dose of 1000 units on days 3 and 7 of the disease.
