  • Title: Information analysis of immune and endocrine organs. Morphological changes in the course of infection.
    Author: Avtandilov GG, Barsukov VS.
    Journal: Zentralbl Pathol; 1992 Nov; 138(5):345-9. PubMed ID: 1477084.
    Abstract:
    Morphological and morphometric studies were conducted into lymphoid and endocrine organs of 259 human adults and infants with pyoinflammatory diseases (PID) and of 300 experimental mice. Informative and correlation analyses of the data thus recorded provided evidence to the effect that in the course of an infection process adaptation and compensation responses were characterized by intensified exchange of information within the immune-endocrine system (IES). Septic courses of PID were found to be accompanied by impairment of inter-organ correlations, increase in information entropy and progressive structural disorganization of the IES.
