EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF MINERAL WATERS ON THE GASTRIC MUCOSA OF WISTAR RATS.

Acid-related diseases (ARD) are the most common among digestive diseases. The main goals of therapy of ARD are to reduce the influence of aggression factors (production of HCl, pepsin) and increase the protective properties of the mucous membrane of the upper digestive tract. Also currently in medicine, one of the therapeutic and preventive methods is the use of chloride-hydrocarbonate sodium boron mineral waters. In this study, we compared the efficacy of table mineral waters in the therapy of induced gastropathy in Wistar rats. The study of the effect of mineral waters on the gastric mucosa of Wistar rats has provided valuable information that can be applied in medical practice for the treatment and prevention of various diseases of the gastrointestinal tract in humans. Careful analysis of the data obtained has shown that certain types of mineral waters can significantly reduce inflammatory processes and promote regeneration of the gastric mucosa, which makes them a useful addition to traditional treatment methods such as pharmacotherapy.

[Reserve capacities of blood coagulation and total lytic activities in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia]. / Rezervnye vozmozhnosti svertyvaiushchei i summarnoi liticheskoi aktivnosti krovi bol'nykh s dobrokachestvennoi giperplaziei predstatel'noi zhelezy.

Prior to and after the double local arm hypoxia test, whole blood thromboelastography under lowered contact activation was used to examine hemostasis and total blood lytic activity in 27 males aged 59-68 years who had moderate benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) as assessed by the International Scale. The control group included 25 apparently healthy males. Only 40.7% of patients were found have adequate reserve capacities of the study systems. BPH induced tension of reserve capacities of total blood lytic activity in 37% of cases and their depletion in 22.3%, even then moderate symptoms of the disease occurred.
