[Therapeutic endoscopy in combined therapy of gastroduodenal ulcers]. / Lechebnaia éndoskopiia v kompleksnom terapii gastroduodenal'nykh iazv.

The method of therapeutic endoscopy is a very important component in the complex treatment of chronic gastroduodenal ulcers. In 115 of 116 patients with gastric or duodenal ulcers who were treated by the authors the ulcer epithelialized and a cicatrix formed. When therapeutic endoscopy with the application of hippophae oil was added to the basic therapy, the period of the inpatient treatment reduced 1.5-2 times. The late results of the management of chronic gastroduodenal ulcers by this method were studied and confirmed its sufficiently high therapeutic efficacy (the results were positive in 93.7% of cases).

[Use of small doses of obsidan in physical rehabilitation of patients with myocardial infarct]. / Primenenie malykh doz obzidana pri provedenii fizicheskoi reabilitatsii u bol'nykh infarktom miokarda

A study of 152 patients with transmural or large-focal myocardial infarction was conducted; 82 of them received low doses of Obsidan (40 mg/day) for 14 days during the activization period. The employment of such doses of the drug was found rational for ensuring a more effective activization of the patients who had a persistent pain syndrome, sinus tachycardia, extrasystolic arrhythmias and "ischaemic" changes of ECG in response to definite stages of the kinetic regimen. A decrease of cardiac output noted during the therapy was especially distinct in cases of cardiac aneurysms and corresponded to the alternating conditions of the metabolic processes.
