STUDING OF SOME METABOLIC INDEXES IN YOUNG PATIENTS WITH SPONDYLOGENIC VERTEBROVASILAR INSUFFICIENCY

Background. The research was aimed at studying the content and ratio of biogenic amines in the serum as well as establishing correlation of their blood levels and concentrations of 2,3-diphosphogliceratis in red blood cells of young patients with spondylogenic vertebrobasilar insufficiency (SVBI). Materials and methods. 65 young patients (women ? 42, men - 23) with SVBI aged from 25 to 40 years old, treated in neurological department of Kharkov Regional Clinical Hospital were examined. As a result, we discovered that the increase in 2,3- DPG in SVBI patients evidenced marked tissue hypoxia, especially at high level of serotonin. High cross-correlation between the level of noradrenaline and 2,3- DPG (r = -0,75±0,03; р<0,05), and also between the level of serotonin and 2,3- DPG (r = -0,83±0,02; р<0,05) were set.
