Estudios de la naturaleza de la Efectividad y Dirección Funcional de Suplemento Biológicamente Activo en el Tratamiento Integral de la Hepatitis Alcohólica Aguda / Nature Studies of the Effectiveness and Functional Direction of Biologically Active Supplement in Comprehensive Treatment of Acute Alcoholic Hepatitis

The article examines the influence of the Biologically Active Dietary Supplement (BADS) "Oleopren Hepa" as a hepatoprotective effect in the comprehensive treatment of acute alcoholic hepatitis. During the study, the authors obtained evidence of the effectiveness and functional orientation of the BADS. The materials for the research are the data obtained during the examination and treatment of 60 patients with acute alcoholic hepatitis. All examined patients were divided into 2 groups: 1st group (main), which received dietary supplements; the 2nd group (control) who did not receive this supplement. The average age of patients was 38.7 ± 9.3 years. The study was carried out based on the gastroenterological department of the city clinical hospital. As a result of the use of BADS in the comprehensive therapy of patients with acute alcoholic hepatitis, hepatomegaly was significantly reduced, and a decrease in the levels of total bilirubin, AsAt, AlAT, GGTP and cholesterol was observed. Additional intake of a specialized product enhanced the hepatoprotective effect of the main treatment. According to the tested biochemical parameters, the dynamics were better than in the control group. The use of the BADS, in addition to comprehensive therapy, increases the effectiveness of treatment of acute alcoholic hepatitis.

[Evaluation of the cytolytic effect of tonic with ginseng extract].

Experimental evaluation of the cytolytic effect of prolonged use of tonic drink with ginseng extract by determining the activity of enzymes, markers of cytolysis (alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)) has been carried out. The study was performed on male rats Wistar (n=15, body weight of 461±23 g), to which tonic drink (containing 46 mg/L panaxosides) was administered in the dose 15 mg/kg body weight using a pharyngeal tube. The introduction was carried out three times daily for 21 days. Then the activity of enzymes - markers of cytolysis was determined in blood plasma. Three-factor mathematical models predicting changes in LDH activity under prolonged intake of tonic drink with ginseng extract were constructed by regression analysis. The models were characterized by close ties of effective and factorial signs under reliability level of 95%, were adequate by the Fisher test, and the coefficients were significant by Student's test. It was found that a daily intake three-time intake of tonic drink with ginseng extract for 21 days didn't lead to significant changes in the activity of enzymes, markers of cytolysis. This coincided with the forecast estimate of cytolysis using three-factor mathematical models. However, the proposed mathematical models allowed to reveal that changing in the dosage and concentration of the beverage may increase LDH activity corresponding to cytolysis.
