[Efficacy of SMC-electrophoresis of peat mud in primary chronic duodenitis].
Sinusoidal modulated current (SMC) electrophoresis of peat mud was used as monotherapy of primary chronic duodenitis in Uva sanatorium. A total of 65 patients with primary chronic duodenitis received SMC electrophoresis of peat mud diluted with distilled water. The effect was followed up with fibrogastroduodenoscopy and target biopsy of duodenal mucosa with further study of its morphological structure and element composition, acid-producing function of the stomach, hormonal profile, collagen metabolism. Positive changes were observed in clinical-endoscopic and morphological picture of the disease which is explained by favourable shifts in hormonal status and normalization of collagen metabolism in duodenal mucosa.
