The authors have studied the significance of factors of the humoral non-specific defense (HND) in 37 patients with cicatricial constrictions of the oesophagus and stomach. The data obtained were used for choosing the optimum terms for gastrostoma and oesophagoplasty. In 14 patients treatment with lysozyme was performed due to decreased indices of HND.

The authors studied the influence of the main antiphlogistic agents (prednisolone, acetylsalicylic acid, rheopyrine, chloroquine and indomethacine) on the thermal effect of the peripheral blood erythrocytes in man. It was found that only chloroquine possessed a significant inhibitory effect. This fact pointed to the inhibition by chloroquine of energy production in the process of glycolysis, which could be regarded as one of the factors of the therapeutic action of this preparation.
