    Author: Krylov VA, Gergert VIa, Korotkova ED, Pechaev MG, Kuz'mina NV, Baranova NI.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1994; (5):21-3. PubMed ID: 7870717.
    Abstract:
    Mantoux test with 2 TU and tuberculin test results gave evidence for the pattern of body responses. A form of tuberculin therapy is suggested. The latter is shown to stimulate a spontaneous and BCG-enhanced NBT test (p < 0.05) and specific desensitization in the absence of humoral immunity changes (IgM, IgG, IgA and titers of circulating antituberculous antibodies).
