[The study of influence of chitosan on clinical, metabolic and immune parameters in patients with cardiovascular diseases].

The investigation of influent of antiatherosclerotic diets with chitosan on clinical and metabolic parameters in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Results of the study show that enrichment of a diet with chitosan in patients with ishemic heart disease and hypertension improved clinic, immune status, antropometric levels and lipid spectrum of blood. The research has shown, that the use in the treat-preventive purposes chitosan is rather perspective.

[Use of fish oil enriched with carotenoids isolated from sea cucumbers in the diet therapy of patients with hypertension and ischemic heart disease].

Usage of antisclerotic diet with fish oil and carotinoides in patients with IND and high blood pressure resulted in positive dynamic of clinic manifestation, blood lipid, coagulogramms, antioxygen and immune status.

[Study of the state of lipid peroxidation system: antioxidant protection during the use of soy oil in patients with ischemic heart disease and hypertension].

Usage of antisclerotic diet with PUFA n-3 from soy oil in patients with IHD and HBP resulted in positive dynamic of clinic manifestation, blood lipids and coagulogramms of the patients. The decrease of intensity of lipid peroxidation was also revealed. The results showed that soy oil may be recommended for preventive and treatment diets.

[The antioxidant defense system in hypertension patients on a diet enriched with omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and alpha-tocopherol].

A state of the anti-oxidation system in blood and the rate of lipid peroxidation were studied in patients with hypertension. High sensitivity of the anti-oxidation system enzymes to alterations in the diet fat composition was detected in the patients, nutrition of whom was evaluated in detail. Excessive doses of alpha-tocopherol, added to the diet enriched with omega 3-polyunsaturated fatty acids normalized lipid peroxidation and stabilized the enzyme activity involved in the anti-oxidation system.

[Effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids of the omega-3 family in the anti-atherosclerotic diet on the activity of lysosomal lipolytic enzymes, mononuclear cells and blood platelets of patients with ischemic heart disease].

Prior to diet therapy, CHD patients exhibited marked impairment of the system of platelet and mononuclear lysosomal lipolytic enzymes compared to those in healthy controls. A reduced ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids omega-6/omega-3 in low-sodium hypolipidemic diet (from 10.3 to 6.
