[Hormonal and metabolic effects of drinking mineral water and phytoaeronisation in experimental prostatitis].

Prostatitis modelled in 53 Wistar male rats (300-350 body mass) 7 days after its induction was treated with mineral water "Essentuki N 17" (MW) which was taken in a dose 1.5-2 ml per 100 g body mass for 23-24 days.

[Drinking mineral waters in rehabilitation of cancer patients].

Three hundred postmastectomy breast cancer patients and 150 patients after gastric resection for cancer have received spa treatment. It was found that a course intake of mineral water in both groups improved immune status: raised significantly the levels of T- and B-lymphocytes and their functional activity, reduced blood levels of IgG and CIC providing the phenomenon of immunological enhancement of tumor antigens. Incidence rate of postgastroresection disorders after the spa treatment fell 3.

[Effect of sanatorium treatment on hormonal disorders in patients with sequelae of craniocervical trauma].

Craniocervical trauma brings about pathology of the central regulatory mechanisms, functional insufficiency of which persists for many years and is responsible for specific features of traumatic disease of the brain with development of the syndrome of posttraumatic regulatory disorders of the nervous-endocrine-immune system. The authors propose methods of differential therapy of posttraumatic hormonal disorders in sanatorium.
