Abstract:
Arthralgia and arthritis may be one of the early signs of hepatic diseases. Comparison of the course of the articular syndrome with the biochemical and immunological data (cationic proteins, NAD, NADP, antigenic markers of viral hepatitis, T lymphocyte subpopulations, and so forth) allowed one to establish a relationship between the parameters studied, to define an important role they play in early diagnosis of liver injuries, in predicting the course of the autoimmune process in active hepatitis. Extracorporeal methods of treatment for chronic hepatic diseases are an important prophylactic and therapeutic factor in the correction of pathogenetic alterations underlying the diseases.
