[An experimental model of enteric klebsiellosis].

Acute enteric infection was reproduced in rabbits, used as an experimental model, receiving Aspergillus flavus metabolites with food for 15 days and inoculated rectally with enterotoxigenic strain Klebsiella pneumoniae K24 6723. Pathomorphological study revealed the penetration of Klebsiella into microplicate cells of the intestinal epithelium, the proliferation of bacteria in the lamina propria and in the cupolas of Peyer's patches, as well as in phagolysosomes of leukocytes and macrophages. The lesion of the mucous membrane in both large and small intestine, accompanied by the hyperplasia of lymphoid follicles, was noted.

[The dynamic laboratory indices of patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus during health-resort treatment].

The immunological status was assessed in 100 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus before and after treatment in sanatorium. The treatment consisted of diet 9a, adequate insulin-therapy, therapeutic exercises, mineral water (drinking and baths), physiotherapy, peloids. Immunological assessment of the treatment effects showed normalization of cellular immunity, enhancement of phagocytosis, positive changes in humoral immunity.
