title: [Morphological and biochemical changes in the myocardium after sudden death from ischemic heart disease].
abstract: The myocardium was examined in 44 persons who had suddenly died of ischemic heart disease, in 37 who had died of injury, and in 28 who had died of alcohol poisoning. Those with ischemic heart disease  had foci of necrosis of the muscle fibers, severe disturbances in microcirculation, changes in the activity of certain myocardial enzymes and in the content of lipids in the myocardium. Biochemical changes similar to these in many respects were revealed in individuals who had died of alcohol poisoning, in view of which alcohol poisoning may be a factor conducive to sudden death in ischemic heart disease.
