[Magneto-peloidotherapy and hydrogen sulfide baths for the correction of dyslipidemia and immune inflammation in patients with ischemic heart disease during resort treatment].

A total of 55 patients with angina of effort (functional classes I-II) were treated by magneto-peloidotherapy and hydrogen sulfide baths. Effectiveness of he treatment was evaluated based on the lipid profile (total cholesterol, triglycerides, high and low density lipoproteides), atherogenicity index, lipid peroxidation, reactivity of the antioxidative defense system, and immune characteristics. Results of the study indicate that combination of magneto-peloidotherapy and hydrogen sulfide baths has hypolipidemic effect and reduces lipid peroxidation in the absence of activation of the antioxidative defense system and correction of the disbalanced immune system. Taken together, these effects decrease severity of the systemic inflammatory reaction and facilitate remission of the atherosclerotic process.
