    Abstract:
    Whether dyslipoproteinemias can be corrected with 24-day mountain therapy in a mid-mountainous area (the village of Malinovka, 1600 m above the sea-level) was studied in 225 males who had sustained large myocardial infarction. The posthospital rehabilitation of postinfarction patients in a mid-mountainous sanatorium caused a substantial change in blood lipoprotein composition, which were generally antiatherogenic. The antiatherogenic changes in blood lipoprotein composition retained within 10 months after their stay at the sanatorium, which indicates that mid-mountain climate is a promising tool for non-drug prevention and correction of atherogenic dyslipoproteinemias.
