[State of microcirculation in patients with atherosclerosis and diabetes mellitus after limb revascularization].

Aim: The study was aimed at comparatively assessing the dynamics of the parameters of the microcirculatory bed of the skin after endovascular revascularization of the lower limb in patients suffering from intermittent claudication (IC) with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).

Patients And Methods: Microcirculation (MC) of the skin of lower extremities was examined in 88 male patients presenting with IC and without DM (Group One) and in 28 male patients with IC and DM (Group Two). 30 patients from Group One and 21 patients from Group Two were subjected to endovascular revascularization of lower limbs.

[The nature of a microcirculatory change in hypertensive patients during increased blood pressure].

Aim: To evaluate changes in the microcirculation (MC) of hypertensive patients during increased blood pressure (BP).

Subjects And Methods: The investigation enrolled 66 patients with grades 2-3 hypertension and 57 apparently healthy individuals. After 2-day discontinuation of antihypertensive drugs, the patients were divided into 2 groups: (1) BP < or = 140/90 mm Hg; (2) BP > or = 160/100 mm Hg.

[Variability of the response of the microvascular bed to medicamental vasodilation in patients with arterial hypertension].

The aim of the work was to estimate changes of microcirculation (MC) in patients with arterial hypertension (AH) with different types of peripheral hemocirculation in response to a single intake of corinfar. The study included 45 patients (mean age 54.3 +/- 1.

[Effect of omega-3 fatty acids on the serum lipid profile and microcirculation in patients with metabolic syndrome and hypertensive disease].

The aim of the study was to assess effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on clinical manifestations of metabolic syndrome (MS) and microcirculation in patients with arterial hypertension (AH). 22 patients of the 32 with grade 2 AH and MC symptoms (by ATP III criteria) were given 1.5 mg of omega-3 PUFAs for 1 months.

[Laser correction of microcirculation disorders in patients having CHD with hypercholesterinemia].

The study demonstrates that hypercholesterinemia in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) is associated with functional depression of microcirculation, increase in total peripheral vascular resistance, reduction in the functional efficiency of heart and decrease in activity tolerance. After receiving a course of low-intensity infrared laser radiation treatment the patients displayed positive changes in blood lipid spectrum, which was associated with improvement in microcirculation, decrease in afterload, increase in economization of heart functioning and activity tolerance. The obtained results demonstrate that the hypolipidemic effect of laser radiation is a substantial factor in the regression of CHD manifestations.
