[Indicator of adrenoreceptors in cell membranes: reference values and informative validity in the assessment of the functional state of the cardiovascular system].

A new method of individual determination of sympathoadrenal activity (SAA) uses the parameter of beta-adrenoreception in cell membranes (beta-ARM) based on the erythrocyte model. Correlation of an individual reference beta-ARM value with specific features of hypertension states, and CVS responses to psychoemotional stress was studied. Described are the method, and normal distribution of individual beta-ARM values in healthy flyers, aviation students, non-flyers, and aviators with diagnosed the neurocirculatory dystonia of hypertensive type and patients with the hypertonic disease of 2nd stage (the overall numbers of subjects = 221). Another group of healthy subjects and patients with the hypertonic disease of 1st stage and different reference beta-ARM values (n = 39) participated in determination of HR and BP levels during the verbal count test. On the evidence of individual beta-ARM distribution in the test groups, the upper limit of the beta-ARM physiological norm (16.0 arbitrary units) was suggested to be a critical parameter in diagnosis of a hyperadrenergic state. Analysis of hemodynamics and the quality of verbal count during performance of a psychoemotional test by subjects with varying reference beta-ARM values revealed hyperreactive cardiovascular systems in and less successful fulfillment of the count test by subjects with high beta-ARM.
