RESUMO
The authors investigated the incidence of different disorders of the lipid metabolism and their age dependence in a group of 67 patients with type 2 diabetes hospitalized at the First Medical Clinic in Kosice. Some disorder of the lipid metabolism was recorded in 67% of the patients. The most frequently encountered disorder was hypertriglyceridaemia (21%). Hypercholesterolaemia was recorded in 16%, combined hyperlipidaemia in 18% and hypoalphalipoproteinaemia in 12% of the patients. Patients with diabetic nephropathy had significantly elevated mean triglyceride levels and reduced HDL-cholesterol levels, as compared with patients without nephropathy. In diabetic women a significantly higher incidence of combined hyperlipidaemias was recorded, as compared with men and the mean total cholesterol and triglyceride levels were also significantly higher in women with type 2 diabetes.

The present results are a continuation of our experiments demonstrating the fact that the local action of a permanent magnetic field (PMF) with an intensity of 0.2 T on the rabbits carotid sinus area under pentobarbital anaesthesia has a hypotensive effect under normotonic conditions (Gmitrová et al. 1987). The aim of this paper was to investigate the PMF influence on the carotid sinus region during artificial hypotension in rabbits. The experiments were carried out in rabbits under pentobarbital anaesthesia under hypotonic conditions caused by electrostimulation of the right depressor nerve. Blood pressure, heart rate and respiration rate changes were monitored before the application of PMF (0.2 T intensity) on the sinocarotid region, during the "on" effect of PMF, under the PMF action, during the PMF "off" effect and after PMF application. PMF significantly decreased the depressor effect of depressor nerve electrostimulation in contrast to the condition of normotonia, where PMF had a hypotensive effect.
