[Lung resection in drug resistant tuberculosis patients]. / Rezektsiia legkikh u bol'nykh tuberkulezom s lekarstvennoi ustoichivost'iu.

Three and seventy-one case histories of patients operated on for different forms of pulmonary tuberculosis in whom their Mycobacteria tuberculosis (MT) were resistant to bactericidal drugs (BD) were analysed. Fibrocavenous or cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis was detected in most patients (73.3%). Various postoperative complications occurred in 20% of the patients operated on, in them empyema with bronchial fistula was stated in 6.5% of cases. The immediate outcomes of lung resections were satisfactory in 90% of patients and poor (progressive tuberculosis, uncorrected empyema) in 6%, mortality was 4%. Comparing these data with the outcomes of 6033 resections whose efficiency was 96.4% and mortality 1.4% leads to the conclusion that MT resistance to BD negatively affect the outcomes of resections.

[Modification of reactions of rats to the effect of weak variable magnetic fields using a stress factor]. / Modifikatsiia stress-faktorom reaktsii krys na deistvie slabykh peremennykh magnitnykh polei.

Stress-factor (hypokinesia) modifies the reaction of the adaptation, which develops under the changeable magnetic fields influence with 8 Hz frequency and 5 microT induction. It's being corroborated by the decrease of nonspecific resistance in the initial adaptation period, by the increase of central nervous system excitability, by the absence of catecholamines accumulation in the hypothalamus and in adrenal glands.

It was found in open test that changing magnetic fields with 8 Hz frequency and 5 mcTl induction in daily 3 hours exposition on rats with a middle level of the mobile activity move the phase of diuresis daily rhythms and epinephrine and norepinephrine yield as well. In rats with desinchronosis provoked by hypokinesia the changing magnetic fields restore the synchronism of the studied processes.
