[Effect of obsidan on metabolic processes in the blood and lymph in acute myocardial infarction].

The effects of obsidan on lactate and glucose levels, the indices of ABB and electrolyte metabolism in blood and lymph at various times after development of the acute myocardial infarction were studied experimentally on dogs. It was stated that the earliest and most expressed changes of biochemical values were observed in the lymphatic system, thus pointing to its important role in the resorption and transport of the metabolic products from ischaemic myocardium. The use of obsidan during the development of acute myocardial infarction corrects substantially the disturbed metabolic processes in the blood and lymph.
