[The intracorporeal ultraviolet irradiation of the blood and its effect on the immune status in patients with a surgical infection].

A dynamic investigation was done of the immunologic status in 75 patients with purulent surgical lesions of soft tissues. Applied in the complex of therapeutic measures was intracorporeal irradiation of blood with ultraviolet light under control of partial pressure of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The above irradiation was found out to make for a more rapid and marked stabilization of bodily immunologic status.

[State of the hypophyseal-gonadal system in patients with hypertension during long-term treatment with nadolol and anaprilin].

The changes in hormone levels of the hypophyseal-gonadal system were studied during 6-month monotherapy with nadolol, 40-160 mg/day, or anaprilin, 80-240 mg/day, in 40 males with Stage II hypertensive disease. Serum levels of prolactin, luteinizing, follicle-stimulating, and testicular hormones, and estradiol were measured by radioimmunoassay at the end of control placebo, 2-week, 2- and 6-month therapy. The negative changes revealed in the hypophyseal-gonadal system, as manifested by elevated prolactin and estradiol levels, diminished testicular hormone concentration, indicate that the levels of these hormones should be monitored in a long-term antihypertensive therapy with beta-adrenoblockers.

The possibilities of the automated morphometry in the diagnosis of the hyperlipoproteidemia. Morphometry in the diagnosis of the hyperlipoproteidemias.

Following are the results of using the elaborated algorhythms of the structural analysis for the study of the form elements of the blood. A possibility was demonstrated to carry out a differential diagnosis of the familial hyperlipoproteidemia of the second type according to the quantitative structural parametres of the chromatin of the inter-phase nuclei of the lymphocytes of the peripheral blood. A method was developed of the automated morphometry of erythrocytes making it possible to assess the optical profile of erythrocytes according to 16 parametres.
