Abstract:
Immediate and delayed type immune response was studied in 374 patients with ischemic heart disease (myocardial infarction in 242, preinfarction state in 32, postinfarction cardiosclerosis in 100). Immediate and delayed type hypersensitivity was recorded with the highest frequency in patients with myocardial infarction and least frequency in patients with postinfarction cardiosclerosis. It was shown that humoral and cellular immune response can be used in assessing the severity of myocardial infarction and prognosing its complications, autoimmune genesis, in particular.
