    Author: Kleĭner AI, Makotchenko VM, Evtushenko VV, Baranenko AA, Chernova SD.
    Journal: Vrach Delo; 1989 Apr; (4):103-5. PubMed ID: 2756665.
    Abstract:
    Therapeutic-prophylactic measures in 60 patients were directed to remove the main pathogenetic mechanisms of development of lung emphysema (control of the obstructive syndrome, normalization of the sputum rheology, reduction of the protease level, restoration of the surfactant system activity). The efficacy of complex treatment (broncholytic agents, mucus regulators, protease inhibitors, etc.) depended largely on the necessity of active prophylactic medical care of patients with dust-induced bronchitis at early stages of the disease.
