Possibilities of correction rheological blood svoytv at chipped and cut wounds of the breast

Цель - изучение влияния электромагнитных колебаний миллиметрового диапазона на реологические свойства крови у пациентов с колото-резаными ранениями груди с целью их коррекции. Методика. Изменение реологических свойств крови изучено у 22 пациентов с проникающими колото-резаными ранениями груди без повреждения внутренних органов в течение ближайшего послеоперационного периода. Всем больным были выполнены первичная хирургическая обработка и дренирование плевральной полости. У всех пациентов объем кровопотери составил 200-500 мл. Критериями включения были: наличие проникающего ранения грудной клетки, наличие малого гемоторакса. Критериями исключения: наличие кровопотери более 500 мл, наличие сочетанных и множественных повреждений. Основная группа разделена на 2 подгруппы, в 1-ю вошли 12 пациентов с применением электромагнитных колебаний миллиметрового диапазона, во 2-ю - 10 человек без применения данного воздействия. Группу сравнения составили 15 относительно здоровых доноров-добровольцев сопоставимых по возрасту и полу. Всем пациентам не проводилась гемотрансфузия, объем инфузионной терапии был сопоставим в обеих группах. Изменения реологии крови выявлялись с помощью учета вязкости крови, изменения индекса деформации и агрегации эритроцитов. Заключение. Установлено, что применение электромагнитного колебания миллиметрового диапазона у пациентов с колото-резаными ранениями груди предотвращает развитие изменений реологических свойств крови, при этом пациенты хорошо переносят данную процедуру, что проявляется отсутствием побочных эффектов. The purpose: research objective: to study influence of electromagnetic oscillations of millimetric range on rheological properties of blood at patients with chipped and cut wounds of a breast for the purpose of their correction. Methods. For the solution of a research objective we have carried out studying of changes of rheological properties of blood at the 22nd patient with the getting chipped and cut wounds of a breast without internal injury during the next postoperative period. All patient has executed primary surgical processing and drainage of a pleural cavity. At all patients the volume of blood loss has made 200-500 ml. Criteria of inclusion were: existence of the getting wound of a thorax, existence of a small gemotoraks. Criteria of an exception: blood loss existence more than 500 ml, existence of the combined and multiple damages. The main group is divided into two subgroups, in the first 12 patients with application of electromagnetic oscillations of millimetric range, have entered the second 10 people without application of electromagnetic oscillations of millimetric range. The group of comparison was made by 15 rather healthy donor volunteers of the same age and a floor. To all patients the hemotransfusion wasn’t carried out, the volume of infusional therapy was comparable in both groups. Changes of a rheology of blood came to light by means of the accounting of viscosity of blood, change of an index of deformation and aggregation of erythrocytes. Conclusion. As a result of the conducted research it is established that application of electromagnetic oscillation of millimetric range for patients with chipped and cut wounds of a breast prevents development of changes of rheological properties of blood, at the same time patients well transfer this procedure that is shown by lack of side effects.

4. Water, salt, and blood pressure

‘Water, salt, and blood pressure’ describes how the balance of water in the body is controlled by several hormones, including vasopressin (arginine vasopressin (AVP)). AVP reduces urine production by the kidneys and also causes small blood vessels to contract, raising blood pressure. Blood volume and pressure are also adjusted by changing the amount of sodium ions reclaimed by kidney nephrons. The renin–Ang-II–aldosterone hormone system balances blood volume and circulatory space to keep pressure stable when the volume and dilution of the blood change. But what happens if the concentration of salt (sodium and other ions) in the blood starts to rise? Is there a direct way to get rid of excess salt? A hormone secreted by the heart, called ANP, does exactly this.

William Harvey, Aristotle and astrology

In this paper I argue that William Harvey believed in a form of astrology. It has long been known that Harvey employed a macrocosm–microcosm analogy and used alchemical terminology in describing how the two types of blood change into one another. This paper then seeks to examine a further aspect of Harvey in relation to the magical tradition. There is an important corollary to this line of thought, however. This is that while Harvey does have a belief in astrology, it is strongly related to Aristotle's views in this area and is quite restricted and attenuated relative to some contemporary beliefs in astrology. This suggests a more general thesis. While Harvey was amenable to ideas which we associate with the natural magic tradition, those ideas had a very broad range of formulation and there was a limit to how far he would accept them. This limit was largely determined by Harvey's adherence to Aristotle's natural philosophy and his Christian beliefs. I argue that this is also the case in relation to Harvey's use of the macrocosm–microcosm analogy and of alchemical terminology, and, as far as we can rely on the evidence, this informs his attitudes towards witches as well. Understanding Harvey's influences and motives here is important in placing him properly in the context of early seventeenth-century thought.
