[The efficacy of membrane-stabilizing therapy in patients with chronic obstructive bronchitis].

A membrane stabilizing effect of endobronchial laser therapy and antioxidative drugs piracetam and solcoseril was studied in 83 patients with chronic bronchitis. Malonic dialdehyde was measured to evaluate effects of this treatment on cellular and humoral immunity, blood coagulation and lipid peroxidation. It was found that the addition of membrane stabilizers to standard therapy of chronic bronchitis lowered malonic dialdehyde concentrations while the addition of the stabilizers and endobronchial laser therapy relieved clinical symptoms earlier, improved parameters of immunity, hemostasis and lipid peroxidation.

[Use of cryo-apheresis in the treatment of patients with cortisol-dependent bronchial asthma].

An attempt of cryo-apheresis treatment of cortisol dependent bronchial asthma demonstrated high efficacy of this method: the majority of the patients could do without glucocorticoid maintenance, recovered working ability. Remission duration considerably increased.

[The clinico-immunological efficacy of dioxidine in the combined treatment of acute abscessing pneumonias in persons who abuse alcohol].

The results of clinico-immunologic studies of the efficacy of dioxidin in persons abusing alcohol have demonstrated that unlike antibiotics, dioxidin does not provoke any immunosuppressive disorders. It is recommended that dioxidin should be included into multimodality treatment of patients with acute lung abscesses, abusing alcohol.

[Clinico-immunologic effectiveness of chlorophyllypt in the treatment of acute destructive pneumonia].

An attempt has been made to replace antibiotics by chlorophyllypt (0.25 per cent solution in physiological sodium chloride solution administered by intravenous drip). The clinical, laboratory and X-ray parameters in 22 patients treated by this drug normalized in earlier terms than those in 19 patients who received the traditional antibiotic therapy.

[The efficacy of the natural antibacterial preparation chlorophyllypt in the combined treatment of acute lung abscesses].

The complexity of the treatment of acute suppurative pulmonary diseases has been aggravated recently by the growth of microbial resistance to antibiotics and enhancement of the allergy incidence among the population. This circumstance restricts the use of antibiotic on a broad scale in clinical practice and makes the researchers go in studies of adequate substitutes. In the given case, use was made of chlorophyllipt.
