title: [Parathormone and calcitonin in men suffering from ischemic heart disease].
abstract: It has been shown that in men with coronary heart disease (CHD), the basal concentrations of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin (CT) in blood serum were increased both during an angina pectoris attack and the interparoxysmal period. During an angina pectoris attack, the highest CT concentration was detected in CHD patients with angina pectoris of effort on the day of the anginal attack. In acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the basal PTH level in the patients' blood serum was increased, particularly during the subacute disease stage. The blood serum CT content during AMI depended on the disease onset: in patients with a sudden disease onset, the parameter under study was increased, whereas in AMI patients with a history of angina pectoris, the CT concentration remained within normal. The authors discuss the pathogenetic role of the shifts in the function of the parathyroid glands and C cells of the thyroid during CHD and the possibility of the use of calcium antagonists and CT in the treatment of myocardial infarction.
