  • Title: [Clinical pre-laboratory diagnosis of immune deficiency in diseases of the vascular coating and retina].
    Author: Teplinskaia LE, Arkhipova LT, Kaliberdina AF.
    Journal: Vestn Oftalmol; 1991; 107(1):23-5. PubMed ID: 2035199.
    Abstract:
    The authors analyze the results of prelaboratory diagnosis of immunologic insufficiency in 948 patients with various clinical forms of endogenic uveitis and retinovasculitis; the diagnosis was based on the totality of clinical signs and ther combinations, summed up in a universal diagnostic chart developed at the Institute of Immunology of the RSFSR Ministry of Health. Immunologic insufficiency was diagnosed in 67.5 percent of uveitis patients mainly in the presence of infectious or autoimmune syndromes developing, as is well known, in depression of T cellular immunity. This is practically valuable for the development of pathogenetic treatment of these grave patients, whose multiple-modality treatment should include immunostimulants and immunomodulators.
