Among many factors, significant importance in the pathogenesis of pulmonary heart failure should be attached to nervous influences causing vasoconstriction of the pulmonary artery system and, as a result, pulmonary hypertension (B.P. Kushelevsky, A.G. Dembo). The latter can lead to the development of atherosclerosis of the pulmonary artery system a second time (H. N. Anichkov, A. I. Abrikosov). On the other hand, changes in blood pressure in the pulmonary circulation reflexively cause dysfunctions of the coronary arteries of the heart (M.S. Vovsi).

One of the most interesting advances in this regard has been the introduction of microelectrophoresis on paper. Electrophoretic analysis of serum proteins allows you to study not only albumin and globulins, but also globulin subfractions (alpha-1, alpha-2, beta and gamma globulins), each of which has its own physiological significance for the body.

SN Polikarpova meet the requirements, but have a number of disadvantages.
