The results include body mass and height measurements, vestibular studies, cardiovascular studies at rest and in response to staged functional loads (with echocardiographic examinations accentuated), metabolic and hormonal studies. The paper also gives information about medical aspects of extravehicular activities. It is emphasized that during the mission both old and new methods of research were used and medical results of preceding flights were considered.
