ABSTRACT
Archive documents and sources in scientific electronic databases were analyzed in order to study the historical origins of the health resort business in terms of children's health resort medicine in the Samara government. It has been established that the period of origin and intensive development of balneology for children in the Samara region occurred at the beginning of the 20th century and the first children's sanatoriums began to function thanks to the initiative of the Society of Governmental Physicians for charitable funds of the Samara nobility and merchantry in territories with natural and climatic therapeutic factors, namely Sernovodsky resort, Barboshina glade and Postnikov ravine. A comparative analysis of the dynamics of morbidity structure of children admitted for sanatorium treatment, as well as general education institutions, from which information on the health of school pupils is received, has been conducted over a period of 120 years. Despite the change of years and generations, there is a general concept of sanatorium health improvement of school pupils as a future social and economic pillar of society, with the formation of a healthy generation for both the region and the country in general.

Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor fosinopril was given for 12 weeks to 92 patients with hypertension and metabolic syndrome. Spectra of carbohydrates and lipids, blood plasma kallikrein-kinin and prostacyclin-thromboxane systems, vascular endothelium dependent vasodilating function were studied in all patients. Hypertension was accompanied with lowering of endothelium dependent vasodilation which degree correlated with lowering of prostacyclin and elevation of thromboxane levels, dys-balance of kallikrein-kinin system as well as with severity of hypertension and metabolic syndrome. Effective blood pressure lowering caused by therapy with fosinopril was associated with stabilization of parameters of kallikrein-kinin and prostacyclin-thromboxane systems, improvement of endothelium dependent vasodilation.
