Therapeutic effect of gevilon in patients with hyperlipoproteinaemia.

Authors examined 46 patients with hyperlipoproteinaemia divided according to hyperlipoproteinaemia type II A, II B, IV. After one month of isocaloric diet the patients were given a single night gevilon dose of 900 mg for a period of 3 months. After therapy we examined lipid metabolism, liver and kidney function, carbohydrate metabolism, hematopoietic system and water--electrolyte balance. In all groups increased levels of cholesterol, beta-lipoproteins and triglycerides were significantly reduced after 3 months of gevilon treatment. In all patients the HDL/LDL ratio increased close to normal values. No impairment of kidney or liver function hematopoietic system and electrolyte balance after 3 months of treatment were noted. Because gevilon is easy to apply and has a limited number of side effects, it is very readily taken by the patients who have lipid balance disorders.

[Plasma renin activity in women with hypothyroidism].

Plasma renin activity was assayed with RIA technique in 13t female patients with hypothyroidism, aged between 23 and 64 years (mean 43.1 years). It was found that mean plasma renin activity in the group under study was statistically significantly lower than that in analogue control group. These results may indicate a relationship between thyroid function and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
