METHOD FOR PREDICTING HYPERTONIC DISEASE Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method deals with venous blood sampling, thrombocytic membranes obtaining to extract lipids followed by their analysis. In thrombocytic membranes one should determine the content of malonic dialdehyde (MDA), intracellular calcium (Ca⁺⁺), then one should calculate diagnostic coefficient (DC) by the following formula: DC = 0.001 x MDA + 0.05 x Ca⁺⁺-5,6, where MDA - the level of malonic dialdehyde in thrombocytic membranes nM/10⁶ cells. Ca⁺⁺ - intercellular calcium of thrombocytes nM/10⁶ cells. In hypertonic patients one should observe DC>0, for healthy patients with transistor AP increase - DC<0. EFFECT: higher accuracy of diagnostics. 3 dwg, 1 tbl
