[An assessment of the connection between the annual population morbidity of salmonellosis due to Salmonella enteritidis and the dynamics of the epizootic process among chickens in commercial poultry plants].

The dynamics of annual morbidity in salmonellosis caused by S. enteritidis among the population of Perm during the period of 1987-1992 was analyzed. Blood sera taken from 4,689 practically healthy donors and from 6,997 hens at poultry breeding complexes were studied in the passive hemagglutination test with the use of complex Salmonella diagnosticum.

[Treatment of fatty hepatosis in diabetics].

A ten-day course of karsil (silimarin, legalon) or silibor therapy improved the absorption (as indicated by ueviridin test) and oxidative-antitoxic (as shown by antipyrine test) hepatocyte functions in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus with hepatosis. A similar ten-day course of Liv-52 did not change the studied liver parameters. Inducto-thermal exposure of the splenic area (a 20 min session daily for 5 days) improved the absorption and antitoxic functions of the liver in diabetics.

[The effect of splenic inductothermy on the functions of the liver and its blood flow in patients with diabetic fatty hepatosis].

Thirty-nine patients with fatty hepatosis were treated by a five-day course of inductothermy (short-wave diathermy) on the splenic zone. 20-minute sessions were carried out daily. This resulted in a regular improvement of the antitoxic and absorptive functions of hepatocytes as well as the hepatic blood flow.
