title: [Changes in fibrinogen values in children with acute articular rheumatism and streptococcal disease].
abstract: A study was made of changes in body fluid parameters of rheumatism following treatment with sulphoadenosine-methionine and classic forms of management. Particular attention is drawn to improvement of the serum electrophoretic picture (especially in the case of alpha 2 and gamma-globulins) with respect to untreated control group. Note is also taken of the drug's positive influence on liver function, particularly with regard to lactate hydrogenase, compared with the variations in such parameters in the control group.
