[Organization of intensive therapy of eclampsia and eclamptic coma].

This is an overview of counselling, medical and methodological assistance given to obstetric facilities of the Moscow region during 10 years. It is concluded that regional obstetric-gynecologic centers should be established, which incorporate an intensive care unit and a mobile resuscitation team.

Coma↗

[Carbohydrate metabolism in the brain in comatose states. Mechanisms of gluconeogenesis].

Glucose release and lactate uptake by the brain during coma is discussed. A hypothesis of autonomous gluconeogenesis in the brain is suggested. To substantiate the hypothesis use is made of the literature data on the presence in the brain of stimuli, and its provision with substrates and gluconeogenetic enzyme apparatus. Special attention is paid to the problem of gluconeogenesis energy supply during hypoxia, using proton or sodium potentials.

Blood Glucose↗

[Carbohydrate metabolism in the brain in comatose states].

The article confirms an earlier discovered phenomenon that during comas and in post-coma periods the brain releases glucose and consumes lactate. It is suggested that the phenomenon is based on glucogenesis taking place in the brain from non-carbohydrate glucose precursors, which is phylogenetically predetermined and biologically expedient.
