[Autonomous nervous system in patients with early postmyocardial infarction angina pectoris]
Abstract:
Ninety-three patients with acute myocardial infarction were examined. They were divided into 2 groups: 1) those with early postmyocardial infarction angina pectoris and 2) those without it. The autonomic nervous system was studied by exploring its segmental and suprasegmental regions. The autonomic tone was evaluated by variance intervalometry. The test of human lymphocytic rosette formation and bovine red blood cells sensitized with glutaric aldehyde and loaded epinephrine was applied to estimate the adrenoception. The sympathetic tone and tissue adrenoceptor density were found to be higher in patients with early postinfarction angina than in those without it. The finding may be useful in predicting early postinfarction angina in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
