title: [Immunomodulating and antioxidant effects of vitamins A and E during air and immersion cooling].
abstract: An important factor in the immunosuppression development on cooling is the increase in lipid peroxidation rate in the cell membranes. It was found that vitamins A and E possess a high immunomodulating and antioxidant activity under the acute cold-induced stress conditions. Administration of these vitamins is expedient for patients suffered from cooling in air of by immersion.
