[Possibility of detecting HBsAG in bloodstains on evidential objects by solid-phase immunoenzyme assay].

This study was designed to detect HBsAg in bloodstains on evidential objects by solid-phase immunoenzyme assay and to characterize its sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility as well as effect of various external factors on the results of HBsAg measurements. Both whole blood from 25 HBsAg carriers and its stains were available for analysis. HBsAg was detected in all blood stains regardless of the time of their formation.

[Anemic syndrome in elderly patients with diabetic angiopathy: incidence rate, laboratory diagnosis].

Anemic syndrome rate in diabetic angiopathy reaching 1/3 in elderly patients, frequency increases after 70 years. The anemic syndrome rate in patients older 60 years suffering from the diabetes mellitus of the 1 type, complicated by "diabetic foot" syndrome and in cases with duration of the disease more than 10 years is elevated. In diabetic angiopathy anemia can be normo- or hypochromic or followed by aniso- or poykilocytosis.
