OBJECTIVE To characterize late convalescence after hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), i.e. metabolic disorders and their relation with arterial pressure (AP) and renal function. METHODS 202 HFRS convalescents were followed up with measurements of AP, purin, carbohydrate and lipid metabolisms, study of glomerular and tubular dysfunctions. RESULTS A stable rise of arterial pressure registered in 24% HFRS convalescents was associated with intraglomerular hypertension, affected concentration ability of the kidneys and tubular transport of beta 2-microglobulin in the presence of metabolic disorders: hyperuricemia, hyperinsulinemia and hyperlipidemia of type IIa. A significant correlation was found between arterial hypertension and renal dysfunction and metabolic disorders. CONCLUSIONS Late convalescence after HFRS is characterized by glomerular and tubular dysfunctions, persistent elevation of AP and hormonal-metabolic atherogenic and diabetogenic disturbances.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D006973	Hypertension	Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more.

D007328	Insulin	A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D006480	Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome	An acute febrile disease occurring predominately in Asia. It is characterized by fever, prostration, vomiting, hemorrhagic phenonema, shock, and renal failure. It is caused by any one of several closely related species of the genus ORTHOHANTAVIRUS. The most severe form is caused by HANTAAN VIRUS whose natural host is the rodent Apodemus agrarius. Milder forms are caused by SEOUL VIRUS and transmitted by the rodents Rattus rattus and R. norvegicus, and the PUUMALA VIRUS with transmission by Clethrionomys galreolus.
