Two new techniques of mitigatory pelotherapy using mud applications to paravertebral area and acupuncture were compared for 152 viral hepatitis convalescents. The efficacy of the treatment was shown by a wide spectrum of hepatic functional and immunologic reactivity indications.
The response to pelotherapy has been assessed clinically and immunologically basing on T-lymphocyte count. Altogether 124 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients were examined. In patients with low baseline levels of T-lymphocytes the effect of pelotherapy appeared inferior to that in patients with normal T-lymphocyte counts. It was suggested that T-cell immunosuppressed RA patients should receive combined therapy with mud applications and anabolic stimulator potassium orotate.
Glucoamylase capacity of amylolytic preparations was determined with respect to the initial rate (VO) of the glucose synthesis from starch when treated with the preparations tested. The concentration of free glucose (y) was assayed, using a glucooxidase reagent after 5, 10 and 20 min hydrolysis. This method takes into consideration the y -- t function which may be non-linear due to the effect of a number of factors (occurrence of alpha-amylase, enzyme inactivation, etc.). In the case of the y -- t linear function VO is measured on the basis of the angle of the y(t) curve. In the case of the y -- t nonlinear function VO is determined by extrapolation according to the described method. The paper contains examples of how to determine can calculate glucoamylase capacity for the two cases.
