[Characteristics of peripheral circulation and tissue metabolism in patients with functional venous hypertension and various forms of arterial hypertension].
Venous-occlusion plethysmography was used to examine peripheral hemodynamics. Oxygen transport, serum lactate and pyruvate levels, and ++intra-tissue pressure in the forearm muscles were studied. A total hypoxemic test was employed as a functional tool. The findings suggest that the changes in venous blood flow and tone, transcapillary and tissue metabolism are unidirectional in functional venous hypertension, borderline hypertension, and hypertensive disease, which should be taken into account in the diagnosis and treatment.
