  • Title: Relationship between structural and ionic changes in cardiosclerosis.
    Author: Căluşer I, Kelbling V, Vasiu R, Olinici CD, Florescu P.
    Journal: Morphol Embryol (Bucur); 1985; 31(1):25-9. PubMed ID: 3157050.
    Abstract:
    The parallelism between hypoxic changes in the myocardium revealed by Lie's technique and by fluorescence microscopy and the ionic changes (Na+, K+, Ca2+) was studied in 51 autopsy cases. The Lie technique was positive in 52.6 per cent of the cases of cardiosclerosis with myocardial infarction and in 15 per cent of the cases of cardiosclerosis without infarction, while fluorescent areas were found in all cases of infarction and in 35 per cent of cardiosclerosis cases without infarction. Na+ and K+ were decreased and Ca2+ ions were increased in both ventricles and in both sexes, both in infarctions and in cardiosclerosis cases without infarction. Ionic changes are more probably related to the intensity of cardiosclerosis rather than to age or sex.
