title: [Arterial tonus in men 40 to 59 with hypercholesterolemia, arterial hypertension and ischemic heart disease].
abstract: A study was made of the rate of pulse wave spreading (RPWS) in the elastic type vessels (the aorta, femoral artery) and in the muscular type vessels (the radial artery) at rest and in treadmill exercise in 363 men aged 40 to 59 residing in the Petrogradsky District of Leningrad and in 62 patients with previous transmural myocardial infarction (TMI). A distinct rise of RPWS in the elastic type vessels was established in persons with hypercholesterolemia without CHD and in CHD irrespective of a cholesterol level in the blood. In the patients after TMI, RPWS did not differ from that in healthy men indicating correlation between RPWS values and myocardial contractility.
