[Uropepsin change in peptic ulcer after balneological treatment at Khisar]

The author followed uropepsin in ulcer patients before and after a complex balneo-therapy in Hissar, where the following therapeutic complex was applied: 1) Tub bath--36-38 degrees C; 2) Drinking of mineral water--"Momina Sălsa" spring (slightly mineralized, hydrocarbonate-sodium, slightly radioactive, fluor). Diet No 1 and physical excercises in hyperacidity. The author has established two-way changes in the values of the followed-up uropepsin, the high--decreased and the low--increased to normalization. The resulsts are statistically significant. Concluding he admits that uropepsin is a reliable method for investigation of the fermetformation function of gastric mucosa and for the assesment of the balneotherapy effect in sanatorium conditions.
