The liver is known to play a central part in carrying out the main phases of intermediate metabolism, in supplying the other organs and tissues with structure and energy substances. The investigations on the liver function of man in the process of organism adaptation to a variety of factors in northern regions are practically non-existent. This article has as its purpose a combined clinical and biochemical investigation of the main functions of the liver in people with various length of stay in extreme northern regions. The analysis of changes in the indices of the basic liver functions in practically healthy people during the process of adaptation to the extreme environmental conditions of the North show, that with a short-term adaptation these shifts were generally of a temporary character, whereas with a long-term adaptation of the newcomers there were relatively permanent changes in a number of indices.
众所周知，肝脏在进行中间代谢的主要阶段以及为其他器官和组织提供结构和能量物质方面发挥着核心作用。关于人体在适应北方地区各种因素过程中肝功能的研究实际上并不存在。本文旨在对长期居住在极北地区的人群的肝脏主要功能进行临床和生化综合研究。对实际健康人群在适应北方极端环境条件过程中基本肝功能指标变化的分析表明，在短期适应过程中，这些变化通常是暂时的，而对于新到者的长期适应，一些指标出现了相对持久的变化。
