[Mental disorders in hospitalized children].

The authors made a statistical analysis of 1491 case histories in children aged 4-14 years treated for various psychotic disorders at a mental hospital in 1992-2001. The proportion of these children remained to be relatively stable and averaged 14.2% of the total number of inpatients.

[Correction of disorders of oxidative processes in toxic liver injury using enterosorption].

Liver injury with tetrachloromethane in white rats is accompanied by accumulation of hydroperoxides in the blood plasma and liver tissue and suppression of antioxidant system (the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, contents of SH-groups and total phospholipids drastically decreases). Ceruloplasmin level in plasma, on the contrary, increases. Enterosorbent SUGS-E in a dose of 19 g/kg partially normalizes violated balance between the activity of free radical processes and state of the antioxidant protection system.

[Correction of proteolysis disturbances and erythrocyte resistance in experimental burns by the antioxidant carbaton].

The total proteolytic activity in blood and tissues and peroxide resistance of erythrocytes were studied in animals at different stages of burn disease. Carbaton, an antioxidant of a pyridine series, is analyzed for its effect on these indices. Considerable activation of proteolysis in tissues and a decrease of the erythrocyte resistance at burn shock and septicotoxemia stages are established.
