The experimental study investigated action of electromagnetic waves (84 mW/cm2 and 395 mW/cm2) on functional-morphological features of healthy kidney of female rats. A marked hemodynamic effect of decimetric waves is shown which operates via stimulation of intermediary zone with redistribution of intrarenal circulation. Disturbance of circulation occurs in dysregulation of the intrarenal blood flow under overstimulation of the organ circulation with 395 mW/cm2 decimetric waves. This entails disorders of hemodynamics, flebostasis, stromal edema, dystrophy of tubular epithelium, periglomerular sclerosis causing aseptic interstitial inflammation. This is also proved by levels of prostaglandin E2 in tissue of renal papillae. These findings should be considered in administration of decimetric waves in patients with renal inflammation.
The influence of electromagnetic waves of metrical and centimetrical range on the transaminoferases activity was studied in the liver and small intestine of 69 rats. The experiment shows that the activity of aspartate and alanine aminotransferases is dependent on the power and duration of the action. It is established that the action of both the short-wave 160 mA diathermy and 30 MW/cm2 microwaves for 20 min is accompanied by inhibition of the liver and small intestine aminotransferases activity. The 20 min action of 12 MW/cm2 microwaves induces an increase in the aminotransferases activity of the liver, small intestine and serum.
Investigations performed by the authors show that normalization of the mechanisms of vegetative regulation of arterial pressure and cerebral vessels tonicity in young patients with sympathico-tonic vegetative dystonia can be achieved by combined use of constant magnetic field (magnetic induction 60 mTl, penetration 10 mm, area 1.5 cm2) and monochromatic electromagnetic wave (length 0.47 mcm, frequency 6 x 10(14) Hz, penetration 1.5 mm and light spot 7 mm) which are directed to a biologically active point C7 shen-men from both sides simultaneously for 3 min, at 11 a.m. to 13 p.m. once a day, for 10 days.
