[Preliminary results of medical studies during the 5-month space flight aboard the "Saliut-7"--"Soiuz-T" orbital complex].

The medical examinations carried out in the 150-day flight were a continuation of the previous studies in terms of the approaches and methods used. The novel approach was a biochemical study of body fluids collected during flight. An important place was occupied by during EVA. The medical results of the 150-day flight were in consistency with the data obtained during previous space flights of similar duration. The health condition and work capacity of the crewmembers throughout the flight (including two EVA events) were good. The changes seen during and after flight were adaptive and disappeared after a relatively short readaptation period.

Physiology and pathophysiology of the digestive organs in critical illness.

Prolongation of life in critical illness has led to the increasing involvement of the digestive organs by systemic hypoperfusion. The end result of profound ischemia is multiple systems organ failure. Digestive system failure, in most probability, becomes the terminal event. Understanding the physiology and pathophysiology of the digestive organs in critical illness allows for early detection and institution of prophylactic measures. Involvement of the liver, biliary tract, pancreas, stomach, and intestines is individually discussed.

Implications of biological aging to the optometric patient.

With the "greying" of the American population expected to rapidly accelerate in the next few years, the percentage of geriatric patients seen by the optometrist will also rapidly increase. A knowledge of the biological aging process will assist the optometrist in both assessing and managing the needs of his or her elderly patients. This article will discuss current theories of how the aging process occurs in the human body, as well as biological changes associated with aging.
