[Study of the body's reactivity using pharmacological tests].
Variations in the excretion of catecholamines (adrenalin, noradrenalin, dopamine and DOPA precursor) were studied in 34 test subjects who had undergone two drug tests at a two day interval: an insulin test at a dose of 0.15 Units/kg body weight and dopavein test at a dose of 800 microgram/day. In most cases these drugs caused an adequate response of the sympathoadrenal system which included its increased activity and reflected nonspecific reactions. It is concluded that a high (or an adequate) relative activity of the sympathoadrenal system during these tests is more favorable in terms of prediction of reactions of the body in harsh environments than a decreased activity of the sympatho-adrenal system, especially when it is combined with low background values of catecholamine excretion.
