[Immunological disturbances in psoriatic patients exposed to radionuclides and corrective complex therapy with dibazol and hepatoradioprotective diet].

In an inpatient setting, 67 and 70 patients with psoriasis living in contaminated and uncontaminated with radionuclides territories respectively were studied in the time-related course of some qualitative indices of immunity. Significant deviations from the norm were recordable, especially in those patients residing in the contaminated with radionuclides tcrritiry. Combined treatment involving the use of dibazol and hepatoradioprotective diet in the experiment group of psoriatic patients proved to be significantly more effective than in patients of the control group who were treated by the generally accepted method.

[Characteristics of the phagocytic reaction of the neutrophils in healthy children and children with acute bronchitis and varying sensitivity to tuberculin].

The feature of blood neutrophils to phagocyte BCG Mycobacterium and Staphylococcus in healthy children and those with acute bronchitis having both positive and negative tuberculin tests was analysed. Healthy children with an altered tuberculin response demonstrate an intensified phagocytic Myco. reaction and a relative inhibition of staphylococcal phagocytosis.
