title: [Does the activity of angiotensin converting enzyme depend on sex, age, body weight and phase of the menstruation cycle in women?].
abstract: The study involved 274 patients, including 240 women, divided into various subgroups, according to the age, body weight, and a phase of menstruation cycle in women, and a subgroup of 34 men. According to the design of the studies, blood serum ACE activity was determined spectrophotometrically with a technique described by Friedland and Silverstein in all patients. The obtained results suggest that blood serum ACE activity does not depend on the sex, age, body weight, and phase of the menstruation cycle in women.
