[Frequency of chromosome disorders occurring in human lymphocytes in the in vitro exposure to different doses of deuterons as protected by adeturon].

Peripheral blood of 4 healthy donors was exposed to deutrons with the energy 4,2 GeV/nuclone and the intensivity of 4 to 6.10(10) particles per impulse, the capacity of the dose being 0,008 Gr/sec. The LPE of deutrons was 2,14 MeV sm2/g. Irradiation doses were 0,26; 0,49; 0,97; 2,02; 3,80 Gr. 15-20 min prior to irradiation, the protector adeturone was added at a concentration of 550 micrograms/ml of blood. Chromosome aberrations were analyzed in protected and unprotected blood samples. The results were treated using the method of variance and regression analysis. The correlative correspondence between the number of chromosome aberrations and an approximate dose of actual irradiation was established as Y = 0,13 d + 6,55.10(-4) D2 for dicentrics and as 0,26 D + 12,6.10(-4) D2 + 4,5 for the total percentage of aberrations. The pattern of the dose - effect dependence was retained in protected samples. The calculated values of the factor of dose decrease confirmed antiirradiation properties of adeturone.

[Determination of after care periods for cancer patients].

Following an analysis of case histories of in-patients treated for tumors of the stomach and cervix uteri at the clinics of the Center in 1979, an assessment of the work put in by the personnel at different stages of their treatment and on the basis of interviews with the clinics' chiefs it was found that the establishment of an optimal period of postoperative treatment of tumor in-patients is impracticable. Due to a high degree of tumor specialization and a wide range of tumor sites, the establishment of specialized clinics or hospitals may face additional difficulty in selecting admissions and running wards with variable turnover of in-patients and highly-specialized personnel.

[Selection for health resort treatment of patients who have undergone radical surgery for stomach cancer].

The paper deals with the preliminary results of a randomized study on the efficacy of health resort and sanatorium treatment of patients who underwent surgery for stomach tumors. Out of the total number of the patients who had applied for the treatment and had been examined by local oncologists, 35.4% proved to have recurrences and metastases, while the treatment was contraindicated in 25.6% of cases. It is recommended that practising oncologists should consult specialized oncological establishments in each particular case of application for health resort or sanatorium treatment.
