[Efficacy of nebulizer therapy with acetylcystein in outpatients with chronic obstructive lung disease].

Chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD) is a widespread illness with constantly growing mortality. Mucolytic therapy plays a significant role in treatment of patients with COLD. The paper contains the results of nebulization with acetyl-cystein as part of rehabilitation program in outpatients with stable clinical course of I-II stage of COLD. The results demonstrated significant clinical improvement, as well as positive changes in external respiration parameters (1 sforced expiratory volume), increase of physical activity tolerance, and disappearance of acute inflammation phase reactants in saliva.

[Lipid peroxidation processes in chronic bronchitis].

AIM: Comparison of the levels of lipid peroxidation (LPO) products in condensate of the exhaled air (CEA) and in the biopsy samples from the inflammation focus. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Extraction spectrophotometry was used to measure LPO products in CEA and biopsies from 30 males aged 30-60 years suffering from chronic bronchitis and 30 healthy controls of the same age. RESULTS: There was activation of local accumulation of isopropanol-soluble LPO products in the bronchopulmonary system accompanied by lowered content of lipoperoxides and high antioxidant activity in CEA. CONCLUSION: Chronic bronchitis is characterized by multidirectional shifts in LPO in the inflammation focus and CEA.
