title: [Ultraviolet irradiation of blood and peloid therapy (standard- and short-course) of patients with chronic bronchitis].
abstract: Clinical symptoms, clinico-biochemical picture, immunograms and external respiration function were studied in 43 patients with chronic bronchitis undergoing UV blood radiation and peloid therapy. This treatment had a corrective effect on chronic bronchitis pathogenesis. Short courses of photon-peloid therapy showed the same effectiveness as routine ones at lower risk of side effects and higher cost efficiency.
