Ln. Mingazetdinova et al., THE ROLE OF LIPID-PEROXIDATION PRODUCTS A ND HEMORHEOLOGIC DISORDERS IN PATHOGENESIS AND CLINICAL RUN OF ISCHEMIC-HEART-DISEASE, Terapevticeskij arhiv, 65(8), 1993, pp. 12-15
Combined assessment of primary and secondary products of lipid peroxid
ation, functional activity of red cells has been conducted in 130 pati
ents with ischemic heart disease running different courses. Lipid pero
xidation was found enhanced both in the whole blood and red blood cell
s. Blood rheology got abnormal. It is shown that lipid peroxides are i
nvolved in damaging erythrocytic membrane structure and function, thus
promoting the progression of ischemic heart disease.
