[The methodology for the objective assessment of trauma severity (I. The assessment of the severity of mechanical injuries)].

The article proposes the methodology for assessment of the trauma severity according to two parameters: the severity of injuries and the severity of the wounded's and victims' state. The severity of injuries is a morphological characteristic of the trauma and it is a stable parameter, while the severity of the state is a functional characteristic of the trauma and represents a dynamic parameter. The assessment of each parameter is based upon calculation of quantitative indices by original scales.

[The objective assessment of trauma severity].

The authors offer a technique of an estimation of traumas gravity on the base of two parameters: weight of damages and gravity of condition of injured. For quantitative estimation of weight of damages on the faculty of military-field surgery of the Military-medical academy a scale was developed, including 74 the most distributed damages, having from 0.05 up to 19 numbers.

[Prognostic value of studying the cellular immunity in ulcerative lesions of the stomach].

Altogether 138 patients with peptic and mediogastral ulcers were examined for cellular immunity. Long before the disease took an unfavourable course marked by frequent relapses and chronic ulcers or the occurrence of ulcer malignancy the patients showed immunodeficiency which correlated with the gravity of the disease clinical manifestations or with the degree of the symptomatology of a complication. At the same time there was a rise of the suppressor activity of T lymphocytes and a reduction in the D lymphocyte count, especially in the patients with gastric ulcer malignancy.
