[The influence of hyperventilation in combination with active orthostasis on the condition of vegetative homeostasis in young men with atherosclerosis risk factors and endothelial dysfunction].

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of hyperventilation test (HVT), active orthostatic position test (AOPT), and their combination on the vegetative homeostasis in male students with risk factors of atherosclerosis (RFA) and endothelial dysfunction (ED). The mentioned tests and their combination were performed in 142 male students with RFA and ED, and 54 male students without them during brachial arterial rheovasography and cardiointervalography. Hyperactivation of the central regulatory circuit and a spastic hemodynamic condition at rest were found in subjects with FRA and ED. The sympathetic functional reserve was overstrained according to AOPT, distinctly decreased according to HVT, and exhausted when both tests were performed. The combination of HVT and AOPT is an informative stress test for pre-clinical evaluation of disturbances in adaptation mechanisms and vegetative homeostasis tensity in young men with RFA and ED. A "high value" of adaptation and the vegetative homeostasis overstrain in male students with FRA and ED indicate a premorbid condition in them.
