the quantitative and qualitative histo-enzymatic determinations of the activity of oxydative mitochondrial enzymes , cytochromoxydase and succinatedehydrogenase do not only show a marked decrease of activity in the area of lesions proved by histopathological investigations , but also very sensitively demonstrate a beginning myocardial hypoxia in such areas which in histopathological tests only show light to medium infiltrations and above that also signify clearly that in the neighbourhood of the lesions a compensatory increase of the oxydative metabolism is found .
