[The dynamic changes in the cytochemical and morphological indices of erythrocyte function in cerebral circulatory disorders in hypertension patients].
20 healthy individuals and 129 hypertensive patients with acute and chronic disorders of cerebral circulation of ischemic type were examined. It was established that the disease was accompanied by changes of the levels of insulin and cathecholamines and of cytochemical structure of erythrocytes as well as by alterations of carbohydrate metabolism. These changes depended on the stage of disorder of cerebral circulation. As far as the disease developed the changes became undulating reversible at first and irreversible at the late stages.
