Deficiency of various vitamins in postnatally developing chick during chromium intoxication and their recovery during vitamins (B and E) and glutathione therapies has been investigated. Study was concentrated on liver, kidney, muscles and serum. Newly hatched chicks were reared in laboratory. They
A multifaceted analysis of the nutritional status of 196 subjects, aged over 65, institutionalized in hospitals, residential accomodation, and sheltered dwellings and of noninstituionalized subjects was untaken. Subjects of hospital and home, with or without multivitamin supplementation, were
Significant alterations in the structure and functions of the kidney are caused by a number of metabolic disturbances and deficiencies of physiological substances. These include intercapillary glomerulosclerosis, gout, hypercalcemia, hereditary cystinuria, potassium depletion, pyrophosphates
A comparative study was carried out in the properties of ATPase system of the skeletal muscle nuclei in the rabbits in norm and with experimental muscular dystrophy conditioned by E-avitaminosis. It is shown that in the system, containing 1.5 mM of MgCl2, ATPase system of the nuclei is activated by
Concurrent viral infection and myocarditis presumably indicate viral myocarditis. The electrocardiographic and pathologic changes developing during acute infection may, however, result from changes not produced by the infection itself, eg, fever, tachycardia, ischemia, potassium depletion, vitamin
For early prevention or inhibition of postmenopausal and age-related bone loss, nutritional interventions might be a first choice. For some vitamins and minerals an important role in bone metabolism is known or suggested. Calcium and vitamin D support bone mineral density and are basic components in
Nutritional status after 238 gastric operations designed to reduce caloric intake and body weight to within 30% of ideal was assessed by measuring body composition using the multiple isotope dilution technique. Body cell mass (BCM) and body fat were quantitated before and at 24 months after

Two young females with severe morbid obesity presented with Wernicke's syndrome after Roux-en-Y gastro-jejunum bypass had been performed. The first patient had recurrent vomiting and dyplopia two months post-surgery. Physical examination indicated bilateral ophthalmoparesia with conserved
PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) is called a pathology of the XX century and affects at least 10-15% women of childbearing age. The therapy involves pharmacotherapy of hormonal imbalance, as well as the change of lifestyle, including the diet.

Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is considered the gold standard for surgical treatment of morbid obesity. It is hypothesized that reducing the length of the common limb positively affects the magnitude and preservation of weight loss, but may also impose a risk of malnutrition. The aim
