[Microhemodynamics and energy metabolism in schizophrenia patients]
Abstract:
An apparent disturbance was revealed in microhaemodynamics of patients diagnosed as having schizophrenia (n = 210) which was more pronounced in continuously progredient form of the above medical condition. An increase in conjunctival indexes, polymorphic character of capillaries, decrease in numbers of capillary loops were revealed by biomicroscopy of the bulbar conjunctiva and capillaroscopy respectively. The patients showed lowering of ATP level and rise in the content of cathodic LDG4-LDG5 fractions, accumulation in blood of lactic and pyruvic acids.
