Aim:
Studying of a condition of the immune status on for standard treatment at an acute serous and purulent pyelonephritis.
Materials And Methods:
The immune status of 62 patients with various forms of an acute pyelonephritis, randomized on age, sex, the minimum quantity of associated diseases in a remission stage is surveyed.
Results:
and their discussion. Purulent form of acute pyelonephritis was accompanied by higher levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines with decreased levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines. In serous form, imbalance in the cytokine system was found. Both serous and purulent forms of pyelonephritis were characterized by the imbalance in the complement system, increased production of immunoglobulins with simultaneous reduction of circulating immune complexes, decreased activity and the intensity of phagocytosis with increased metabolic activity of neutrophils.
Conclusion:
At serous and purulent forms of a pyelonephritis there are differences in an orientation and expression of changes of the immune indicators demanding development of methods of the differentiated immunorehabilitation.
