[Use of resort factors in Novosibirsk region in the treatment of digestion system diseases].

Hydrocarbonate-chloride-sodium mineral water has a prokinetic effect, reduces lithogenicity of bile and decreases the level of glycoproteins in biological fluids improving their rheological characteristics. Saline "rapa" baths decrease intragastric pH, stimulate pancreatic secretion, normalize mucus composition and activate protective-adaptive mechanisms of organism. Pelotherapy modulate gastric juice acidity making antigelicobacteria effect and decrease glycoproteins concentration of digestive sectets.

[Alexithymia in women after myocardial infarction: the role of neurophysiological correction method in complex sanatorium rehabilitation].

The article is dedicated to analysis of psychological features of 152 women with coronary artery disease (CAD), who had had acute myocardial infarction and had begun sanatorium rehabilitation in Belokurikha sanatorium. The role of the neurophysiological method of bioadaptive regulation in improvement of the efficacy of early post-infarction rehabilitation and secondary CAD prophylaxis in women with alexithymia was evaluated. The authors make their conclusion on the basis of clinico-functional and psychological studies and statistical evaluation of the data received in the course of the study.

[Insulin-glucose parameters in healthy women and patients with arterial hypertension and ischemic heart disease in dependence on age and follicle-stimulating hormone levels].

Insulin-glucose parameters in healthy women do not significantly change with changes of functional state of ovaries. Women with hypertension and normal levels of glycemia have significantly higher values of basal insulinemia and HOMA-R index reflecting presence of moderate insulin resistance degree of which is more pronounced in middle aged patients. In women with documented ischemic heart disease values of basal insulinemia, HOMA-R index, and glycemia are comparable with those in patients with hypertension and follicle-stimulating hormone level above 30 IE/l and significantly differ from corresponding parameters in healthy women in peri- and postmenopause.

[Coronary atherosclerosis and total serum cholesterol in men and women].

The study shows that the extent of atherosclerotic changes in the coronary arteries, revealed during coronaroangiography, has a significant correlation with the serum level of total cholesterol (TC). In patients with normal (less than 5.2 mmol/ l) TC the number of involved arteries and the number of stenotic segments are significantly smaller than those in patients with a TC level higher than 6.
