title: [Effect of somatotropin on the course and result of combined radiation and mechanical injury].
abstract: In the experiment on rats it was shown that injection of somatotropin (1 ED/kg, i.m. at 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 days) after combined irradiation and mechanical injury (4.5 Gy, LD50/30 and plural fractures) improved the overall condition of the rats and increased the survival. The drug accelerated the bone regeneration.
