[Hypophyseal gonadotropic function in gout].

Gonadotropic function of hypophysis was studied in 109 patients with gout. Raised level of luteinizing hormone (LH) was found in men while women had decreased content of LH and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Severe lesions of joins and kidneys were associated with suppressed FSH secretion. The authors consider correction of hormonal dysfunction in gout to be advisable. Certain correlative relations were established to exist between levels of gonadotropins, sex hormones and indices of purine metabolism.

[The clinico-pathogenetic aspects of sex dimorphism in gout].

The examination of 241 gout patients (207 males and 34 females) revealed a marked sexual dimorphism of the disease related to the articular and renal syndromes. Male gout is characterized by higher blood levels of uric acid and oxypurinole in reduced clearance of the latter, while in female gout there were hyperxanthinoxidasemia and hypo-cAMPemia. Unbalance of sex and gonadotropic hormones, which appeared multidirectional and dependent on the sex, was observed in males in the form of lower concentrations of blood testosterone and estradiol against elevated levels of progesterone and lutropin, in females manifested with hypoprogesteronemia and reduced gonadotropin.

[The characteristics of the disorders of the immune status in gout patients].

An analysis was made of some immunological indices in patients with podagra. It was established that women showed a more pronounced reduction of T-lymphocytes in the peripheral blood and their functional activity in tests with phytohemagglutinin and concanavalin as well as a deficit of B-lymphocytes, hyperproduction of C-immunoglobulin and antibodies to DNA in the blood serum. Males showed an increased level of B-lymphocytes. M-immunoglobulin and antirenal antibody titers. The concentration of circulating immune complexes in the blood rose equally independent of age.

[The immunological indices in different types of gouty nephropathy and the degree of renal structure involvement].

Patients with different types of podagric nephropathy were examined for 21 indicators of the functional activity of T and B lymphocytes and neutrophils. The data obtained were compared to the degree of impairment of the basic renal structures. Among the study immunologic indicators to estimate the gravity of morphological alterations in the glomeruli, the decrease of the titers of antibodies to DNA is of definite specificity, whereas the fall of the concentration of circulating immune complexes is of definite specificity in the assessment of alteration in the stroma.

[Sex hormones in podagra].

Male patients with gout exhibit a decrease in the blood content of testosterone and estradiol and an increase in the content of progesterone. The amount of androgen and estrogen changed insignificantly but the level of gestagen abruptly dropped in female patients. Irrespective of the sex the concentration of lutropine and follitropine appeared to be decreased. Whereas the level of uric acid in men was in inverse relation to the production of estradiol, in the group of women--to the indices of progesteron. Changes in sex hormones depended on the form of arthritis and the type of nephropathy.
