RESUMEN
The urease test and bacterioscopy of impression smears were used to detect Helicobacter pylori (HP) in biopsies from pyloric gastric mucosa of 77 (89.5%) of 86 chronic gastritis patients, of 27 (4%) from 32 duodenal ulcer patients, of 84 (84.0%) from 100 healthy male subjects aged 18-20. There was focal hyperemia in pyloric part of the stomach in 59 patients, leukocytic infiltration of mucous membrane was found histologically in 78 ones. Close correlation between complaints, endoscopic and histological shifts, HP incidence rate was not registered. Positive results in determination of HP antibodies by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) were obtained in 32 (45.7%) of healthy subjects. EIA findings and histological evidence on HP presence failed to coincide in 42 (92.9%) duodenal ulcer patients.

Lipid metabolism and the blood lipid peroxidation system were examined in 56 military males living in rather similar conditions. The parameters in question were compared in the following groups: (1) control subjects, including healthy individuals without a family history of atherosclerotic vascular abnormalities; (2) healthy subjects with a family history of atherosclerosis; (3) patients with coronary heart diseases. There were significant differences only in single cases between the groups. The application of a system of grids setting upright the distribution curves for the parameters under study proved to be effective in finding significant differences between the groups, showing the value of the hereditary factors in the development of atherogenic lipid changes.
