  • Title: [Nonspecific body resistance in the acetylator phenotype of patients with odontogenic inflammatory processes in the maxillofacial area].
    Author: Azimov M, Krakovskiĭ ME, Ashirmetov AKh.
    Journal: Stomatologiia (Mosk); 1990; 69(6):33-5. PubMed ID: 2087715.
    Abstract:
    Nonspecific resistance of the body, intensity of acetylation processes, and acetylator phenotype were studied in adults and children aged 3 to 16, suffering from maxillofacial odontogenic inflammations. The findings evidence that irrespective of the patient's age, development of maxillofacial inflammations is associated with a reduction of the body nonspecific resistance and of acetylation processes intensity, this reduction being the most marked in the patients with acute and chronic osteomyelitis. Patients with the slow acetylation type predominated among the examinees, permitting a hypothesis that this acetylation type favors the development of odontogenic inflammations.
