Effect of acute hypoxia on coronary and systemic hemodynamics

Variations in coronary circulation, cardiac output and heart rate were examined by dopplerography in 14 test subjects kept in an altitude chamber. It was found that during acute hypoxia the effective coronary blood flow decreased distinctly prior to general circulatory disorders. It is recommended to monitor coronary circulation during altitude exposures.     

Anatomical and technical possibilities for the restoration of blood flow in the inferior mesenteric artery]

As a result of the analysis of interrelationship between the inferior mesenterial artery trunk and upper mesenterial artery and its intestinal branches, as well as a comparison of the diameter and length of the mentioned vessels on 73 cadavers of adult persons of both sex, in most cases (in 66 of 73) there was noted an association of favourable in position and parameters conditions for anastomosing the inferior mesenterial artery. In experiments on 17 human cadavers different variants of revascularization of the left colon were accomplished.     

Novocaine blocks in the overall treatment of acute cholecystitis, cholecystopancreatitis and pancreatitis

The authors used paranephric, vagosympathetic and vagoganglionic blockade in 253 patients with acute cholecystitis, cholecystopancreatitis and pancreatitis. The universally adopted methods were used for the estimation of the results with the recording of electrogastrogram before the blockade, immediately after novocaine injection and on hour later. The arrest or subsiding of pain syndrome occurred after paranephric blockade in 78.8% of patients, after vagosympathetic blockade in 95.2% and after vagoganglionic blockade in 92.6%. 20 patients were operated upon.
