  • Title: [The effect of pelotherapy on the indices of T- and B-system immunity in patients with infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis].

    Abstract:
    The state of the T- and B-systems of immunity were evaluated in 137 patients with infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis. Peloidin phonophoresis was used in group I; intramuscular injections of humisol were used in group II; subcutaneous injections of torfotum were used in group III. The control group did not receive mud preparations. It was established that peloidin, humisol and torfot produced a distinct increase of the cellular immunity indices. The effect of mud preparations on the humoral immunity is less significant and is confirmed only by a clear reduction of immunoglobulins G in groups I and II. The most rapid restoration of immunological indices was noted in case of peloidin phonophoresis.
