The article studies the features of fixing the legal mechanism of constitutional control in the first two constitutions of the USSR. The analysis is based on the study of the approaches taken by well-known legal scholars during the drafting of these constitutional acts, as well as the views of modern Russian constitutionalists on the essence and national specificity of the implementation of the ideas of constitutional control as an integral part of the system of constitutional governance. On the basis of a comparative legal analysis, the article reveals the evolution of the mechanism of constitutional control from judicial control in the Constitution of the USSR of 1924 to formal parliamentary control in the Constitution of the USSR of 1936. While recognizing the importance of the institution of constitutional control as a necessary element of constitutional governance, the authors conclude that the single-party political regime in the USSR had a destructive effect on the very idea of constitutional governance. Despite attempts to create Soviet constitutionalism as a universal way of involving society in social construction, the influence of party power negated the meaning of the Soviet Constitution. The formalization of the content of constitutionalism and federalism under the Soviet state regime contributed to a complete loss of the importance of constitutional justice in the USSR of the pre-war period.

Aim. To identify the associations between microcirculation parameters obtained using the method of bulbar conjunctiva videobiomicroscopy and coronary angiography in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Material and methods. Fifty six patients with ACS underwent coronary angiography (CAG) and on days 7-10 of hospitalization — bulbar conjunctiva videobiomicroscopy. A comparison of micro- and macrocirculation parameters by methods of pair and canonical correlations has been carried out.Results. Multiple positive and negative correlations of the average force between microcirculation parameters (arteriolar-venular ratio (AVR), capillary number per 1 mm2 of conjunctival surface, intravascular erythrocyte aggregation in the eye corner) conjunctival areas) and severity of coronary sclerosis. By the method of canonical correlations, strong (r=0,71), positive statistically significant (p=0,0256) correlation was observed.Conclusion. Bulbar conjunctiva videobiomicroscopy can be used as non-invasive screening to identify individuals with a high risk of coronary sclerosis. Thus, the following parameters can be used: AVR, capillary number per 1 mm2 of conjunctival surface, intravascular erythrocyte aggregation in the eye corner and the number of conjunctival areas with identified intravascular erythrocyte aggregation. In case of low AVR values (0,2-0,3), reduction of the capillary bloodflow (reducing of the capillary number less than 4 units/mm2 of the conjunctival surface) and widespread intravascular erythrocyte aggregation in three and four areas of the bulbar conjunctiva, patients should underwent CAG because of high risk of coronary atherosclerosis.
