The initial condition for the effectiveness of treatment of patients with arterial hypertension is the establishment of accurate indications. The causes of certain types of arterial hypertension are currently known.

Studies by a number of authors have revealed significant changes in the activity of enzymes, as well as shifts in the content of nucleic acids and myocardial glycogen in disorders of its functions [5, 18, 19].

Diseases of the cerebral vessels, especially atherosclerosis, are the most common form of damage to the nervous system and occupy one of the first places among the causes of death and disability in people.

After the first reports of the existence of a special pituitary factor capable of leading to transient hyperlipemia, works began to appear on the study of the dynamics of this factor in atherosclerosis, in the complex pathogenesis of which disorders of fat metabolism appear most clearly.

Fibrin-stabilizing factor (FSF) is one of the agents providing an enzymatic process that leads to the formation of dense fibrin clots. FSF, or fibrinase, is a high molecular weight protein (350,000) with high specific activity. Fibrinase, participating in the fibrin stabilization reaction, can induce structural changes in fibripmonomer molecules, bringing them into a stronger bond [5] and providing the formation of insoluble fibrin.

In conditions of insufficient blood circulation, changes in blood coagulation and fibrinolysis systems can develop, since the function of these systems is associated with the state of the liver, protein formula of blood, vascular permeability, enzymatic and other factors that are sharply disturbed in this pathology.

We examined 157 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (with focal form — 28, with infiltrative pneumonic — 43, hematogenous disseminated — 31, fibrocavernous — 50, cavernous — 5).

The circulation of fluid in the eye has now been studied in sufficient detail. Watery moisture is produced by the ciliary body and flows through the angle of the anterior chamber and trabecula into the Schlemm canal, which is connected with the anterior ciliary vein system using numerous intra- and episcleral vessels.

The results of treatment of patients with acute peritonitis, despite some progress in recent years, still cannot be considered satisfactory. Until now, mortality remains high - it reaches 5-17% and more [12, 20, 301. The concentration of attention of researchers mainly on the properties of microflora and the search for appropriate antibiotics has led to an obvious underestimation of the reactive properties of the macroorganism.

The rupture of the vessels of the uteroplacental site and the appearance of a large wound surface during the separation of the placenta create extraordinary conditions in the body for hemostasis. The loss of only 50-250 ml of blood during normal delivery testifies to unusually effective mechanisms for stopping postpartum hemorrhage, which, according to modern concepts, are provided by 2 factors - contraction of the muscles of the uterus (myotamponade) and thrombus formation in the vessels of the placental site (thrombotamponade).

Myocardial infarction often occurs against the background of atherosclerotic arteries. However, the development of coronary thrombosis is explained not only by morphological changes in blood vessels, but by a complex of functional and biochemical disorders, one of the manifestations of which is the inhibition of anticoagulant mechanisms, which affects, in particular, a decrease in fibrinolytic activity.

We tested a new digitalis glycoside, acetoxin (acetyl-digitoxin). This drug is produced at the Hungarian pharmaceutical plant "Gedeon Richter"; it is a woolly foxglove lanatoside "A" similar to foxglove purpurea digitoxin.

One of the important problems of modern surgery is the fight against bleeding during surgery and in the postoperative period. Often the cause of postoperative bleeding are disorders in the blood coagulation system. Hemorrhages caused by a lack of fibrinogen in the blood are of great danger.

Varicose veins of the lower extremities, known since the time of Hippocrates, is a common disease and ranks first among the vascular pathology of the extremities. According to public health bulletins USA, this disease ranks 7th among 28 chronic, common forms of pathology (Tubiana). The proportion of patients with varicose veins in surgical hospitals is 3-4% (DG Mamamtavrishvilli). The problem of treating varicose veins persistently requires its solution.

Postoperative uterine scars often pose a risk of uterine rupture in subsequent pregnancies. Ruptures of the uterus in such cases are most often asymptomatic.

We observed 11 men and 9 women with myocardial infarction in the subacute period and 20 men and 8 women with angina pectoris. The patients' age is from 43 to 65 years. They took Butadion orally at 900-600 mg per day.

Cystic pneumatosis of the intestine is a relatively rare disease. It is usually localized in the wall of the small intestine, less often in the large intestine, in the wall of the stomach, in the mesentery and omentum in the form of multiple rounded blisters up to the size of a chicken egg and more and is found, as a rule, during operations in the abdominal cavity. Accumulating in the subserous layer, the gas bulges out the serous membrane, forming many bubbles, similar to bunches of grapes.

K., 25 years old, was admitted to the clinic on 12 / ІХ 1959, 20 hours after the injury, with a diagnosis of a scalped wound of the penis with a detachment of the scrotum (hit the perineum on the connecting shaft of the tractor with the header).

Currently, new regeneration stimulants have entered clinical practice. Especially pyrimidine and purine derivatives have proven themselves [14]. At the same time, the question of the influence on the regeneration processes of various other agents widely used in the clinic is of great interest. Anticoagulants should undoubtedly be classified as such agents.

Medical labor expertise solves the essential tasks of assessing the labor capabilities of persons with various chronic diseases. Its main theoretical position is the mandatory consideration of the effects of environmental factors on the body and the correct combination of medical and social criteria.

Determination of the activity of alkaline phosphatase of leukocytes is of interest for the purposes of practical and theoretical medicine. In a number of diseases (acute inflammatory diseases, sepsis, leukemias, malignant tumors, radiation injuries, etc.), the activity of alkaline phosphatase of leukocytes often changes naturally, which can serve for differential diagnosis and prognosis.

October 1968 marked the 70th anniversary of the birth and 44 years of medical, scientific, pedagogical and social activities of the head of the second department of obstetrics and gynecology of the Kazan State Pedagogical University named after V.I. V.I. Lenin, Doctor of Medicine, Professor Ivan Vasilyevich Danilov.

The book is devoted to the problem of osteomyelitis of the jaws of various origins: odontogenic, traumatic, hematogenous and specific etiology.

A full member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences prof. P. Gamery (the report is published in this issue of the journal). In other reports, both Soviet and Hungarian scientists provided detailed data on the effects of dopegit and sanotensin on the cardiovascular system, arterial and venous tone, renal blood flow, electrolyte metabolism, excretion of catecholamines, etc.

The congress was opened by the deputy. Minister of Health of the RSFSR E.I. Kuznetsov.
