ABSTRACT
In contrast to young people, changes in the rhythms of parameters manifested in elderly and senile chronic coronary patients in inversion (decreased T cell count in the peripheral blood, values of lymphocyte blastogenesis test with phytohemagglutinin, and phagocytic index in the fall), monotony (B cell count in the peripheral blood), decreased amplitude of serum hydrocortisone, and desynchronization. The levels of thymic serum factor and IgG were higher in the fall than in the spring, but the seasonal difference leveled after 2.5 years of observation. On the other hand, the rhythms of changes in the thymic serum factor and hydrocortisone were retained in patients with chronic coronary disease after 6 courses of epithalamin by the optimal protocol (period of observation 30 months) and blood T cell count increased in the fall. Improvement of the rhythms of the parameters was associated with a benign clinical course of the disease.
