RESUMEN
In the Omsk public medical Academy, the informational and technological support of laboratory medicine education at undergraduate and postgraduate stages required to organize the cooperation between the Russian Association of medical laboratory diagnostics and the Academy course of clinical diagnostics. The non-commercial interaction was organized between the Academy and the manufacturers and suppliers of laboratory diagnostic systems. This approach permitted to implement the cycle of scientific educational forums and to start the territorial program of quality management in laboratory research. The choice of the specialty "clinical laboratory diagnostics" as a prospective profession significantly increased among the Academy graduates. In addition, the Russian Association of medical laboratory diagnostics and the Omsk public medical Academy started a new joint project targeted to the support of laboratory diagnostics techniques training in concordance with the new public educational standard of higher professional education. Thereby, a specified model of joint resolution of actual issues is developed in the field of laboratory medicine education with coordinator collaboration of Russian Association of medical laboratory diagnostics as a professional non-government organization.

Using a panel of monoclonal antibodies against human myoglobin (Mb), we have shown that the sensitivity of antigen-capture ELISA can be significantly increased by simultaneous immobilization of two cooperating capture monoclonal antibodies on a solid phase. This method ("triple-site ELISA") uses three monoclonal antibodies to different epitopes of the same antigen (two capture/one tracer) unlike the traditional double-site assay using one capture and one tracer monoclonal antibody. We developed double- and triple-site ELISA for Mb by varying the capture and tracer monoclonal antibodies. Triple-site assays showed 4-6-fold increase in sensitivity compared to the double-site assays. A model for this effect is suggested; according to the model, in triple-site ELISA, high-affinity cyclic configurations can be formed by an antigen, two capture monoclonal antibodies, and the surface of the solid phase.

It has been shown that the course of the early postoperative period in cardiosurgical patients and its outcome is to a great extent related to adequate balance of adaptation hormones, whose levels and changes are determined by the functional state of compensatory-adaptive systems. Patients with favourable outcome of the complicated postoperative period along with synchronous activation of sympathoadrenal system (SAS), hypophyseoadrenal system (HAS) and an elevated somatotropic hormone (STH) level demonstrated adequately high blood insulin content, with the equilibrium in adrenalin/insulin and cortisol/insulin ratios retained, and moderate STH predominance over insulin. In 1/4 of patients with complicated postoperative period and unfavourable outcome an attenuated SAS response was accompanied by excessively high STH, ACTH, cortisol blood content and a lower insulin level, which determined relative insulin insufficiency.

In Wistar male rats, 1-h acute immobilization stress resulted in the increased plasma adrenalin, noradrenaline and dopamine in approximately 13, 8 and 23 times, respectively. Plasma PGF2 alpha increased in 3.5 times while PGE remained unchanged; this resulted in the decreased PGE/PGF2 alpha relation in 2.8 times. The PGI2/TXA2 relation also decreased in 1.5 times due to a more pronounced growth of TXA2 than that of PGI2. In rats adapted to the repeated stress (12 sessions), the plasma catecholamine level was higher than that in control but 2-3 fold lower than in unadapted rats after acute single stress. In this situation, PGE was increased by 70% as compared to the control. This is why PGE/PGF2 alpha relation was similar to the control whereas the level of PGF2 alpha increased. PGI2 increased by 53% and TXA2--in two times as compared to the control. In these rats, acute stress induced neither plasma catecholamine enhancement nor PGE/PGF2 alpha relation decrease in comparison with the initial levels; the TXA2 content was increased but it was by 33% less than that in unadapted rats exposed to such stress. One can suggest that the decreased activation of adrenergic system respondent to acute stress in unadapted rats is associated with the increase in plasma PGE and PGI2 which are known to limit the catecholamine release from adrenergic terminals and their harmful effects.

The article deals with a new method of treatment of the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. The operation for epicardial destruction of Kent's bundle by pulsating current was developed by the authors. It is distinguished by its simplicity and the possibility to determine the efficacy of the procedures during the operation itself. The results of examination of 44 patients in the early postoperative period and in late-term periods after this operation are discussed. It was found that the electric factor does not cause structural changes of the underlying structures and does not affect the pumping function of the myocardium. The revealed changes were recorded by means of angiocardiography, coronarography, radionuclide ventriculography, and the enzyme spectrum.

It has been shown that the course and outcome of the early postoperative period in cardiosurgical patients are to a great extent related to the functioning of the adaptation systems under study and their interrelations. An essential role of sympathoadrenal system (SAS) in the control over hormonal body status has been established. It ensures, provided its activity is retained, interaction of other hormonal systems as a uniform functional mechanism in postoperative stress. Decreased activity and intrasystemic coordination of SAS combined with low activity of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and excessively activated hypophyseal-adrenal system in patients with postoperative complications are indicative of adaptation mechanism damage and are of negative prognostic value.

Blood thyroid hormones were measured before and after the rationed exercise test in 79 patients with angiographically verified diagnosis of coronary heart disease. A relationship was demonstrated between postexercise blood T3 variation and functional coronary circulation reserve. Hormonal baselines, and exercise-induced blood T4 changes were basically similar in patients with coronary disease of different severity. The results are suggestive of pathogenetic importance of thyroid function in these patients.

A difference between baseline and final plasma hormonal (insulin, cortisol, somatotrophic hormone, triiodothyronine (T3) and thyronine (T4) levels, related to the pattern of response to physical stress, was demonstrated in 67 coronary patients with angiographically verified diagnosis. Post-exercise increase in these hormones was associated with their lowered baseline and elevated final blood levels, as compared to those patients who showed a decrease in hormonal levels in response to exercise, with the baselines exceeding final values.

During surgical correction of Fallot's tetrad the authors discovered the decrease of macroergic phosphate concentration and moderately marked signs of cardiomyocytic ultrastructural changes, such as mitochondrial injuries, decrease of glycogen levels, insignificant intracellular edema, no increase of membrane penetration. Changes of endothelial cells were absent. In children not over 1 year old under myocardial protection with hypothermic perfusion (at low volume rates) some decrease of macroergic phosphates occurred, as well as a moderate decrease of the mitochondrial index, glycogen content decrease, there was no intracellular edema. The discovered structural changes are minimal and reversible. A close correlation was found between the electron microscopic data and the character of myocardial energetic metabolism, the biochemical changes preceding the ultrastructural ones. Comparison of morpho- and biochemical changes in the myocardium of the majority of patients with impaired myocardial function confirmed the existence of a complex relationship between them.

The purpose of the study was to find out the character of the restructuring of enzymes and isoenzymes of creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase (G 6 P-DH) in the myocardium, which occurs in patients with ischaemic heart disease (IHD), and to compare the activity of the aforementioned enzymes in the myocardium of patients with IHD, examined intra vitam, and in patients who died suddenly. An analysis was made of 11 samples obtained by myocardial biopsy from the left ventricle of patients with IHD and of 11 samples obtained at autopsy of patients with IHD who have died a sudden death. Serving as controls was bioptic material from the myocardium of 12 patients without IHD. In the myocardium of patients with IHD, examined intra vitam, a decrease in the activity of the mitochondrial isoenzyme CK (MiMi) and the isoenzyme LDH-1, and a considerable rise in the activity of G 6 P-DH were found. In patients with IHD, who have died suddenly, there was found only a decrease in isoenzyme LDH-1 activity and a reduced concentration of CK B-units. The experiments proved that the differences in the myocardial isoenzyme spectrum between the two groups of patients with IHD are not connected with the process of autolysis.

Plasma insulin, cortisol and somatotropic hormone (STH) levels of coronary patients are related to the extent of atherosclerotic lesion of coronary arteries. The relationship between coronary atherosclerosis and hormonal activity becomes particularly evident through the pattern of hormonal response (a rise or a fall) to rationed exercise. An elevated insulin baseline and reduced postexercise levels are typical for coronary patients with only slightly narrowed (25% or less) coronary arteries. A tendency to higher baseline and postexercise plasma cortisol levels was noted in more severe coronary cases. Increased postexercise plasma STH levels were significantly more frequent in patients with less marked atherosclerotic lesions of coronary arteries.
