  • Title: [The effect of ultraviolet irradiation of patients' blood on the morphofunctional status of erythrocytes].
    Author: Cherniakov VL, Boĭkov AK, Vetchinnikova ON, Plaksina GV.
    Journal: Ter Arkh; 1989; 61(9):118-20. PubMed ID: 2595570.
    Abstract:
    The morphofunctional status of red blood cells was studied in patients with terminal renal failure associated with pyo-inflammatory complications treated by means of ultraviolet radiation of autologous blood. The authors have established that ultraviolet radiation of autologous blood results in the increase of the discocyte count and red blood cell activation, evidenced by the rise of the young red blood cell count, of the red blood cell population with marked activity of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, of the content of sulfhydryl groups, and by the increase of erythrocytic adhesion.
