title: Comparative investigations on cytochemical and cytohormonal exponents of estrogens- progesteron activity in vaginal epithelium in women with complicated pregnancy. I. Threatened abortion.
abstract: Cytohormonal smears taken from the women hospitalized due to threatened abortion were classified in four groups according to KPI, E.I., FI and CI values. Simultaneously in the vaginal section hormono-dependent enzymes (Al.,P.,Ac.,P., NADH2 t.r., ATP-ase, PAS reaction for glycogen) were studied. The investigated enzymes were compared with the values of cytohormonal indices, in intensity of cytochemical reaction. A distinct correlation was discovered between the intensity of the reactions for Al.,P.,ATP-ase and NADH2 t.r. and KPI, as well as for EI values which suggest either the balance of estrogens-progesteron or its disturbance.
