[Pathomorphogenesis of the liver, kidneys, and lungs in patients with icteric leptospirosis].

Postmortem and biopsies pathomorphological studies of the liver, kidneys and lungs of patients with leptospirosis were carried out. The content of myoglobin in these organs, blood and urine was investigated. Dystrophy and infiltration of the liver in leptospirosis are moderate and do not correlate with the intensity of icterus.

[Clinical and pathogenic evaluation of acid-base, gas and electrolyte homeostasis in patient with leptospirosis and acute renal insufficiency].

With the purpose of further perfecting the pathogenetic therapy, indices for the acid-base status were studied together with those for the electrolyte exchange in the time-related course of the disease in patients with grave leptospiral jaundice presenting with acute renal failure (ARF). Patients with leptospirosis running a grave course and ARF display changes in the acid-base status and gas composition of the blood. Patients presenting with oligoanuric ARF and fatal outcome develop uncompensated metabolic acidosis (11.

[Comparative clinical and immunological parameters in convalescence of patients with icterohemorrhagic leptospirosis].

Aim: To investigate clinico-immunological parallels of convalescent period in leptospiral jaundice (LJ).

Material And Methods: Clinical and immunological indices were studied in 121 LJ convalescents (97.6% males, age 17-45 years).
