    The clinico-immunological effect and significance of the rectal and inhalation methods of the application of recombinant IFN-alpha2 with complex immunoglobulin preparation (CIP) in the treatment of relapsing bronchitis in children have been determined. The determination of the levels of interferon activity in buccal secretions and in venous blood permits the objective evaluation of the immune responsiveness of the body and the treatment effect. The immunocorrecting action of the combined immunobiological preparation (recombinant IFN-alpha2 and CIP) is manifested by an increased level of endogenic interferon and the stimulation of phagocytic activity.

    Respiratory Syncytial Virus Disease

    Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a widespread pathogen that primarily targets infants and young children but also poses a serious health risk to elderly and immunocompromised individuals. Belonging to the Pneumoviridae family, RSV is a negative-sense, single-stranded RNA virus within the Pneumovirus genus. Its global health burden is significant, with millions of cases annually resulting in hospitalizations and mortality, particularly in resource-limited settings. Although most...

    Pulmonary Tuberculosis V

    Medical management of tuberculosis (TB) patients involves a comprehensive approach that includes diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring. The specific strategies can vary depending on the type of tuberculosis (latent or active), the patient's overall health status, and other considerations.
    Latent tuberculosis infection occurs when TB bacteria are present in a person's body, but are not causing illness or symptoms. It is not contagious, and preventive treatment is crucial to avoid the progression...

    Inhaled Medications

    Inhaled medications are crucial for managing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. They are essential for effective treatment and control, ensuring optimal respiratory health and well-being. Inhaled medication delivers drugs directly to the lungs, providing a rapid onset of action and reducing systemic side effects compared to oral or injectable medications. Three primary types of inhalation devices are used to administer these medications: nebulizers, metered-dose inhalers...
