Curves of the blood flow in patents with myocardial ischemia 
(MI), patients with MI and type-2 diabetes mellitus (MI + DM2), 
and donors have been analyzed using a rheological model proposed by 
the authors. The influence of the standard antianginal and antiaggregative 
therapy on the parameters of this model has been investigated. It 
has been established that the four parameters of the model are reliably 
changed for both groups of patients as compared to those for the healthy 
donors, and that, for the donors, there exists a temperature-dependent 
correlation between the other two parameters of the model that is 
absent for the patients. A criterion is proposed for estimating a 
normal blood-flow curve at 25oC. It is shown that 
the antianginal and antiaggregative therapies do not influence the 
parameters of the model for the patients studied.
