  • Title: [Prognostic evaluation of the absolute lymphopenia during prednisolone therapy of chronic pulmonary sarcoidosis (author's transl)].
    Author: Böttger D.
    Journal: Z Erkr Atmungsorgane; 1976; 144(1):39-44. PubMed ID: 969688.
    Abstract:
    From a controlled prednisolone therapy trial 130 patients with chronic pulmonary sarcoidosis who had already finished their drug-therapy were evaluated. The relapse rate was 28.5% within the following two years. It is obvious, that the long-time prognosis of cases with very low absolute numbers of lymphocytes in the peripheral blood (1000 and less/mul) is significantly poorer than in all other cases.
