Title: [The immunological indices of patients who have had a myocardial infarct]. Author: Sledzevskaia IK, Dubrovskaia GV, Babov KD, Kornilina EM, Shcherbak IaIu. Journal: Vrach Delo; 1990 Jul; (7):26-8. PubMed ID: 2238590. Abstract: The authors carried out immunological examination of 68 patients with ischemic heart disease with a history of one or several myocardial infarctions. The patients showed changes of the immune status, mainly of the humoral type due to allergic reactions caused by immune complexes and also anaphylactic reactions provoked by IgE-antibodies. The above changes occurred against the background of T-cellular immunodeficiency and increased content of B-lymphocytes. Increase of the level of indices of unspecific defence is a manifestation of compensatory reactions directed to elimination of the increased content of circulating immune complexes from the body of the patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
