[The Relationship of Obesity to the Character of Nutrition].

Unlabelled: The aim of the investigation was to study pathogenesis of abdominal obesity on the model of experimental fatty dystrophy in rats; to assess the state of lipid and protein metabolism and to elucidate morpho-biochemical interrelations between pathogenesis of fatty liver dystrophy and character of nutrition.

Material And Methods: Male Wistar rats (n = 42, weight 210 g) were object of the research. Three groups of animals were formed: rats of group 1 (control group, n = 15) received standard vivarium diet; rats of group 2 (n = 15) received hypercaloric fatty diet with allyl alcohol; rats of group 3 (with alloxan diabetes, n = 12) also received hypercaloric fatty diet with allyl alcohol.

[Value of Fatty acids in formation of thrombotic status in patients with ischemic heart disease].

Interrelation between fatty acids and platelet aggregation has been a subject of interest for cardiologists in the terms of thrombogenic status. In order to study this problem we observed 42 patients with ischemic heart disease and 30 healthy persons. In patients we found elevation of arachidonic acid and lowering of docosahexaenic acid levels.

[Blood viscosity in patients with ischemic heart disease].

Aim: To elucidate relation of blood viscosity to development of a hypoxic state of microcirculation in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD).

Material And Methods: We examined 42 patients with postmyocardial infarction cardiosclerosis and 30 healthy persons (control group). Measurements were made by rotatory viscometer at shear rates 1 - 10 s(-1).
