[Application of sinusoidal modulated currents and radon therapy in patients with uroliths in upper urinary tracts]. / Primenenie sinusoidal'nykh modulirovannykh tokov i radonoterapii bol'nym s kamniami verkhnikh mochevyvodiashchikh putei.

The paper describes the method of elimination of the upper urinary tract uroliths using a combination of the following modalities: sinusoidal modulated currents, drinking of artificial radon water, radon water baths and no-spa medication. Evacuation of the concrements or their fragments from the upper urinary tracts reached 80%.

[The combined therapy of patients with chronic nonspecific pyelonephritis using interference currents and and radon procedures]. / Kompleksnaia terapiia bol'nykh khronicheskim nespetsificheskim pielonefritom interferentsionnymi tokami i radonovymi protsedurami.

The exposure of the lumbar region to interference currents in combination with radon baths conducted in 37 patients with chronic pyelonephritis inhibited activity of the inflammation, hypercalciuria and hyperoxaluria, improved function of the kidneys. The same clinical effects were achieved in 32 patients who had received interference therapy in combination with intake of radon water.

[The presence in the skin of a barrier for the inert gas radon]. / O nalichii v kozhe bar'era dlia inertnogo gaza radona.

Human and animal trials have proved the existence of a skin barrier layer which hinders radon penetration. This layer is most developed in the skin sites rich in phospholipids, for instance, in the rat tail epidermis and paw soles. It was also found in the rat tail surface.

[The effect of the internal use of radon water on the recovery processes in experimental stomach ulcer]. / Vliianie vnutrennego primeneniia radonovoi vody na vosstanovitel'nye protsessy pri éksperimental'noi iazve zheludka.

Radon experiments have established that oral courses of water containing either radon or its decay products in optimal doses can promote healing of gastric ulcer. The speed of such healing is believed to depend on the dose absorbed by a thin layer (about 100 microM) of gastric mucosa.

[Use of immunospecific methods for quantitative estimation of microsomal epoxide hydrolase]. / Ispol'zovanie immunospetsificheskikh metodov dlia opredeleniia kolichestva mikrosomal'noi époksidgidrolazy.

Antiserum, specific to rat liver microsomal epoxide hydrolase, was produced. Three methods for quantitative estimation of the epoxide hydrolase, base on the principle of antigen-antiserum immunoprecipitation, were used: electroimmune analysis by Laurell, radial immunodiffusion, enzyme-linked immunoassay. Distinct correlation between specific enzyme activity and its content in microsomal preparation was demonstrated using a simple and stable procedure of radial immunodiffusion. In the enzyme-linked assay conjugate of protein A with alkaline phosphate served as the secondary antibody. Sensitivity of the procedure described was about 1,000-fold higher as compared with radial immunodiffusion method.
