title: [Platelet lipid spectrum in male patients with appendicitis].
abstract: The phosphor-lipid spectrum and the fat-acid composition of platelets were investigated in male patients with appendicitis (mature age, periods I and II). The thrombogenic potential of platelets was found to be higher in both age groups. As for the males of mature age, period II, the pro-thrombogenic shifts were found to be more essential in them, i.e. the contents of oleic acid (an activator of the release of ionized Ca++), of arachidonic acid (precursor of thromboxanes) and of dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (precursor of vasocontrast prostanoids) were higher in them.
