[The clinical significance of determining sulfhydryl groups and succinate dehydrogenase in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients with liver and biliary tract pathology].

It was established that patients with hepatobiliary pathology showed a reduction of SH groups and activity of lymphocyte succinate dehydrogenase of the peripheral blood. The level of this reduction depended on the severity of the pathological process and was lowest in viral hepatitis and cancer of the head of the pancreas. A dynamic study of SH groups and SDG in these groups of patients makes it possible to evaluate disorders of oxidation, oxidation, severity of the disease; it is also of prognostic significance.
