[Chronopharmacological basis for the therapy of water-salt imbalance in patients with stomach cancer].

The diurnal rhythm of water- and electrolyte uresis was compared in 50 patients with stomach cancer and 20 cases of stomach ulcer and 20 healthy subjects. A specific level of rhythmostasis (neorhythmostasis) was established in cancer patients. It is suggested that standard procedures for water-salt dysbalance correction should be improved (by integrating chronotherapy with practice).
