Universal Phenomenon of Helical Motion of the Media in the Transport Canals of the Living Organism

A new concept is suggested of the mechanics media in the transport canals of a living organism consisting in the fact that there exists a universal phenomenon of helical motion of continuous media in these canals. Study of structural-functional organization at the system level made it possible to discover the following previously unknown phenomena in the circulation system: helical blood flow with mirror relation of corresponding sections of systemic and pulmonary circulation; concentric spiral separation of microparticles on the radius of a helical blood flow. Studies of other canals (urinary and alimentary systems) of the organism have also shown the phenomenon of helical motion of continuous media for other transportation canals of a living organism. Such a motion is considered to be optimal from the view-point of energy expenditures and creates the best conditions for self–organisation and self-provision in all the transportation systems of the living organism. Further investigations in this field will enable one to better comprehend the mechanism of the genesis of pathology and find ways for prophylaxis and treatment of different human diseases.

Key words: universal, helical motion, media, transport canals of organism
