  • Title: [Body's responsiveness and postoperative course in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].
    Author: Konova IV, Selitskaia RP, Gracheva MP, Bogadel'nikova IV.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1996; (5):30-2. PubMed ID: 8984486.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of the study was to reveal a package of criteria for the body's responsiveness in order to predict the course of a postoperative period in 25 patients with short-term pulmonary tuberculosis. The indices of the responsiveness were comparable with the specific features of a postoperative course. The study of the body's responsiveness prior to surgery and in the first days after it was found to be of value in the prediction of a postoperative course. The determination of the intensity of free radical processes may more accurately estimate the impact of surgical interventions on the body's responsiveness. The drastic rise in the activation of free radical oxidation after surgery suggests its unfavourable influence on immune mechanisms.
