Ln. Mingazetdinova et An. Zakirova, LIPID PEROXIDES AND THE HEMOSTATIC SYSTEM IN MYOCARDIAL-INFARCTION COMPLICATED BY CARDIAC-ARRHYTHMIAS, Kardiologia, 33(2), 1993, pp. 24-26
A comprehensive study of the levels of lipid peroxidation products and
hemostatic parameters was made in 73 patients with various clinical c
ourses of myocardial infarction by using current clinical and laborato
ry techniques. The patients were demonstrated to have a substantial in
crease in lipid peroxides and in the activity of glutathione peroxidas
e an antioxidative enzyme, which was accompanied by hemostatic disorde
rs. The biochemical changes revealed reflect the severity of the disea
se and may promote the occurrence and deterioration of cardiac arrythm
ias in patients with myocardial infarction.
