[The dynamics of the urinary glycosaminoglycan indices in the pathogenetic therapy of glomerulonephritis].

A positive dynamics of the course of glomerulonephritis under the effect of pathogenetic therapy evaluated in 140 patients was accompanied by a statistically valid reduction of glycoseaminoglycanes in the urine. This allows to use these indices as adjunctive criteria of treatment efficiency, especially in patients with chronic forms of the disease.

[Lipid metabolism in primary and combined lesions of the kidneys in pregnant women].

Urinary and blood lipid metabolism was examined during pregnancy complicated by different forms of nephropathies. The pregnant with primary nephropathy and with chronic pyelonephritis showed a significant increase of lipid peroxidation products in erythrocytes while the pregnant with chronic glomerulonephritis showed high-molecular lipoproteids in the urine. A relationship was found of metabolic disorders and indices characterizing the degree of renal lesions in the pregnant.

[Changes in the kallikrein-kinin system as a result of electrical-medicinal anesthesia].

The results of kallikrein-kinin system studies are analysed in 105 urological patients at different stages of surgical treatment. It has been established that changes in kallikrein-kinin system during combined electrical and drug anesthesia as well as during ataralgesia are unidirectional and reside in moderate system activation of compensatory nature. It is concluded that combined electrical and drug anesthesia is an adequate anesthetic technique to be used during urological surgery.
