[DEFINITION OF INTERRELATION BETWEEN AMINOACID COMPOSITION OF URINE AND BONE TISSUE DENSITY AT CHILDREN WITH ACUTE LEUKAEMIA FOR ONCOHEMATOLOGICAL PATHOLOGY RISK GROUP FORMATION].

Age and sexual indexies of densitometry at patients with acute leukemia (AL) and healthy children are presented. 31% of children with AL during the initial period of disease had manifestations of the osteopenic syndrome. At patients with AL more often than at healthy children anomalies of development of front part of skull are defined.

Effect of RBC concentrate transfusions on serum ferritin content in children with acute leukaemia.

Objective: To study the serum ferritin levels in children with acute leukemia, depending on the number of transfusions of RBC concentrate and period of disease.

Materials And Methods: We studied the red blood count, serum iron and ferritin levels in 54 patients with acute leukemia before chemotherapy, at the time of a standardized treatment protocol, and after transfusions of RBC concentrates.

Results: In the debute of acute leukemia just before treatment lauch the serum ferritin in 81.

[Clinico-immunocytological characteristics of leukemia in persons exposed to ionizing radiation effects due to the Chernobyl AES accident].

A total of 18 patients with acute leukemia from those exposed to radiation when they had liquidated the consequences of the accident at the Chernobyl Atomic Power Station were examined. Sixteen of them had acute myeloblast cell leukemia, one had acute lymphatic leukemia, and another one had acute promyelocytic leukemia. A complex of hematological, immunocytological, and cytochemical findings, as well as leukocytic and erythrocytic genetically determined antigen typing were used for diagnosis.

[Assessment of the immunohematological status of children exposed to low doses of ionizing radiation in the early and late periods after the Chernobyl AES accident].

The qualitative and quantitative parameters of hemopoiesis and immunocompetent cells were studied in 365 children in the early "iodine" and long-term periods after the accident. In accordance with primary response, a group consisting of 28 subjects with so-called "radiation injury" was distinguished. The early period was marked by unusual qualitative and quantitative hematological changes which, however, did not lead to the development of the hematological syndrome characteristic of acute radiation injury.
