[Indices of the lipid spectrum of the blood serum and erythrocyte membranes in diabetes mellitus in children]. / Pokazateli spektra lipidov syvorotki krovi i membran éritrotsitov pri sakharnom diabete u detei.

The paper is concerned with the results of a comparative study of the blood serum lipid spectrum and erythrocytic membranes in 100 children with diabetes mellitus aged 7 to 15 and 20 healthy children of the same age. The ratio of lipid and lipoprotein fractions depending on a degree of compensation, duration of disease and the presence of complications was disturbed in the blood serum and erythrocytic membranes of the diabetic children. The recovery of lipid metabolism was delayed as compared to clinical convalescence of the patients, therefore appropriate correcting therapy was required.
