    Journal: Ter Arkh; 1999; 71(2):75-8. PubMed ID: 10222562.
    Abstract:
    AIM: To study the effects of newly developed antiatherogenic vegetarian diet enriched with soya bean products on clinico-hemodynamic characteristics of elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Clinico-hemodynamic parameters, lipid blood spectrum and plasmic hemostasis were studied in 28 elderly CHD patients divided into groups by dyslipidemia type (IIA, IIB, IV). RESULTS: The antiatherogenic vegetarian diet promoted normalization of central hemodynamics, lowering of blood atherogenic lipids, positive changes in blood rheology. CONCLUSION: The proposed balanced antiatherogenic vegetarian diet proved to be an effective monotherapy of dyslipidemia in elderly patients with coronary heart disease.
