Since general practitioners (GPs) are the first segment of the population to evaluate for CVD, the Italian Project Nautilus (concerning vascular prevention) organized a monitoring campaign in 20…

The results of studying the process of biological oxidation of carbohydrates and Krebs cycle enzymes under the therapeutical influence of electromagnetic radiation of mm-range as a response of patient with gastroduodenal pathology are presented.
