title: [The nature of the homeostatic changes in nephrolithiasis patients].
abstract: Rheorenographic findings, activities of 4 major glycolytic enzymes and 3 Krebs cycle ones in serum and blood, urinary fibrinolytic activity were analyzed in 117 patients with coral nephrolithiasis (the pelvis was drained after calculus removal) in 114 patients with non-coral calculi (the pelvis was sutured) before and 7, 14 days after surgery. Rheography revealed a significant decrease in arterial vascular tone and blood filling and an impairment in venous return in the diseased kidney. In the patients with nephrolithiasis, the enzymatic activity showed 3.5-10.5- and 4.5-11.5-fold increase (p less than 0.001) in the Krebs cycle and glycolysis, respectively, suggesting activation of not only oxidative phosphorylation, but anaerobic glycolysis. Tubular metabolic acidosis occurred, which made the enzymes enter blood and urine from the epithelial cells. On days 7-14 of postoperation, rheographic parameters, enzymatic and fibrinolytic activities of the urine remained virtually unchanged as compared to the values observed in the preoperative period. Moreover, the patients with a sutured pelvis showed highly accelerated glycolysis during the surgery against prior to the procedure. Urinary mitochondrial enzyme release increased, which reflected an enhancement of degenerative changes in nephron cells. Urinary fibrinolytic activity remained lower. In the patients with a drained pelvis, all the parameters in question became better.
