[Study of fine structure changes in the human constant electrical field in a series of eye diseases]
Abstract:
Using external non-polarized electrodes Ag/AgCl the potential difference was measured between four measure points and a referent point, situated on the skin of humans with normal sight function and of ones suffering from cataracta, glaucoma and toxic neurite. Three points, situated on the face skin and a point at the corner of the nail couch of the forefingers of both hands were used as the measure points. The referent point was always situated on the neck in the place of the crossing of the cowl muscle and clavicle-nipple one. The investigation has shown that the potential difference between all the measured points and the referent point varies for all the diseases, mentioned above, and hence, the fine structure of the electric field changes in a different way at all these diseases. Thus, a regulator of life processes the constant electric field of the organism-searches all the pathologic changes and gives broad possibilities for the diagnostics of both the whole organism state and a particular organ one.
