充血性循环功能不全乃是各种心脏疾患的最终结局,是成人丧失劳动力和死亡的主要原因之一。因此,研究此种综合征的发病机制的各个环节、临床表现以及治疗具有重要的科学价值与实用意义。苏联心脏病学家致力于研究心肌收缩力减弱的原因以及心外机制的意义。这两者在循环功能不全的发病和临床过程中起着主要作用,并决定治疗与预后。鉴于细胞和分子心脏病学的成就,已有可能研究正常心脏和病变心脏的代谢过程,揭示心脏功能不全的机制。目前,人们正在从事心 Congestive circulatory insufficiency is the ultimate outcome of a variety of heart conditions and is one of the major causes of loss of workforce and death in adults. Therefore, the study of the pathogenesis of this syndrome in all aspects, clinical manifestations and treatment has important scientific value and practical significance. Soviet cardiologists devote themselves to studying the causes of myocardial contractility and the significance of extracardiac mechanisms. Both of these play a major role in the pathogenesis and clinical progression of circulatory insufficiency and determine treatment and prognosis. Given cellular and molecular cardiology achievements, it has been possible to study the metabolic processes of normal and diseased hearts, revealing the mechanisms of cardiac insufficiency. At present, people are engaged in the heart
