title: [Determination in the system of the neuromuscular relations of the coronary arteries at stages in human postnatal development].
abstract: By means of micromorphometric method in transversal sections of electively stained right and left coronary arteries the data, characterizing the area of the middle and external sheaths, amount of myelin fibers in nerves, accompanying the artery have been obtained in men of 8 age groups (from birth up to old age), who died from causes not connected with the cardiovascular pathology. The summary amount of all classes of myelin fibers increases synchronously with an increase of the muscle sheath area from newborn up to 35-45 years of age. After this age the amount of the myelin fibers decreases together with decreasing area of the middle sheath. Minimal values of these indices are observed in the old age (85-90 years). The external sheath area increases permanently from birth up to the old age. The correlative analysis reveals a positive and significant connection of various degree between the myelin fibers number and value of the middle arterial sheath in persons of juvenile, mature and elderly age: amount of the muscular layer is adequate to the myelin fibers amount. In other age groups the correlative connections are either small, or not significant. Alternative, corresponding to each age quantitative gradations of the nervous connections are determined by means of the peripheral substrate. Its role in the vessels investigated is performed, to a definite degree, by the muscle sheath.
