[Hexokinase and lactate dehydrogenase activity, lactic and pyruvic acid content of erythrocytes and acid-base equilibrium in stomach cancer patients after radical operations].
Certain glycolytic enzymes, the level of end metabolites of glycolysis and acid-base equilibrium indices were studied in 106 patients with stomach tumors (stage II-III). It was found that prior to surgery metabolic disturbances in erythrocytes are to be observed, while acid-base indices tend toward metabolic acidosis. After radical surgery, the activity levels of hexokinase and lactate, dehydrogenase as well as concentrations of lactic and pyruvic acids are decreased, acid-base equilibrium being restored much earlier.
