[Effect of heparinoids on the blood sugar level and blood lipids in diabetes mellitus].

The paper is a clinical experimental work, studying the heparinoid effect upon blood sugar level, blood lipid fractions, endogenic heparin and lipo-brigther-becoming activity in diabetics. Heparinoids are applied in acute experiment. A total of 37 subjects were examined--22 diabetics with adult type of diabetes, 10 clinically healthy subjects and 5 diabetics examined only with 500 ml physiologic salt solution. The same patients were examined with heparin as well for a comparison. Blood sugar, NEFA, lipolyzing activity, total lipids, total cholesterol, beta-lipoproteins, total phospholipids, triglycerides and endogenic heparin were determined prior to and post infusion introduction of heparinoids. The results reveal that heparinoids have two basic biochemical effects decrease blood sugar lever in diabetics and change the blood lipid fraction level. They depend on the structural peculiarities of the preparations. Heparinoids stimulate heparin activity as well, through which they realize their biochemical effect to a certain extent. The decreasing effect on blood sugar level of heparinoids is stronger as compared with heparin.
