[The role of the pulmonary parenchyma in regulating the functional properties of the thrombocytes in acute septic lung lesions]. / Rol' legochnoi parenkhimy v reguliatsii funktsional'nykh svoistv trombotsitov pri ostrykh septicheskikh porazheniiakh legkikh.

An examination of 110 patients with septic injuries of the lungs (acute pneumonia without purulent destruction, acute abscessing pneumonia, gangrene and lung abscess) has established that lung parenchyma plays an important role in the regulation of functional properties of thrombocytes. Growth of unfavourable thrombocytic lesions were shown to accompany an increase of sizes of purulent-destructive lesions of the lungs. The suppression of coagulolytic and barrier function of the lungs was found to be associated with the appearance of thrombotic complications.

[Megakaryocytopoiesis in patients with acute infectious destruction of the lungs]. / Megakariotsitopoèz u bol'nykh ostrymi infektsionnymi destruktsiiami legkikh.

Partial megakaryocytograms were studied in patients with acute infectious destructions of the lungs. Acid phosphatase and glycogen megakaryocytic levels, overall number of megakaryocytes elucidated the role of the central link of the system megakaryocyte--platelet in the onset of thromboembolism and hemorrhagic complications arising in the above patients. Inefficiency of megakaryocytopoiesis in pulmonary and pleural acute pyo-destructions is under discussion.
