A Study of the Relationship between the Imbalance of Macro- and Microelement Homeostasis System and the Development of Structural Desintegration in Major Arteries of the Head
We studied the quantitative differences in the content of macro- and microelements and linear correlations between their concentrations in serum, ultrafiltrate and urine during the structural transformation of blood vessels using the example of dissection of the main arteries of the head. We observed a decrease in the content of serum copper and an increase in its ultrafiltered fraction. It was found that the level of copper in dissection of the main arteries of the head is most informative in serum and its ultrafiltrate. Serum iron and zinc levels and their ultrafiltered fractions were balanced. The ultrafiltered fraction of serum magnesium was decreased. The imbalance of serum Ca/Mg ratio was due to physiologically active ionized forms.
