[Role of vitamins in the prevention of atherosclerosis].
Persons doing brain work and taking aerovit in three courses of 30 days each with intervals of 5-6 months were kept under observation over a period of 13-15 months. While improving the vitamin allowance the course-wise taking of aerovit helped normalize the lipids metabolism factors characterizing an increased predisposition to atherosclerosis, the favourable effect being traced for 4-5 months after discontinuance of the preparation ingestion. Repeated courses contributed to a further improvement of the lipoid metabolism. A tendency towards positive changes in the tonicity of the intracranial vessels was recorded, while in subjects with an increased pulse wave propagation rate along the elastic type vessels this tonicity was seen to decline. With the available data on the positive effect of aerovit upon the lipoid and protein metabolism and some clinical and instrumental findings serving as a background an inference is made that a prolonged (course-wise) application of aerovit can be of help in preventing the development of atherosclerosis.
