CARDIOVASCULAR ASPECTS OF SCLEREMIA(*) By Dr. Jose Cabrera Flores(**) and Dr. Hugo Cabrera Gallego(**) (*) Presented before the First Regional Congress on Stomatology of Southern Oriente, Santiago de Cuba, October 1954. (**) Dr. Enrique Cabrera Cosio Cardiovascular Department, Provincial Hospital of Santiago de Cuba. CONCLUSIONS After studying old patients with Scleremia, the most important observation has been the enlargement of the electric systole shown by the electrocardiogram. This is to be correlated in subsequent studies. Other observations are the presence of the T-wave's inversion in the two cases presenting the lowest hemoglobin level, in opposition with normal cardiac rhythm in most cases. This phenomenon is present in the evolution of chronic anemic syndromes and has not been fully explained yet.
