[Functional disorders of the blood neutrophils and their correction in patients with bronchiectasis and lung abscess]

Studies conducted in 25 patients with bronchiectatic disease, 40 with chronic lung abscess, revealed decrement of the blood neutrophil capacity for uptaking bacteria, and cytochemical changes in these. Expediency of inclusion into the combination therapy of those drugs intensifying the leucocyte energy metabolism and phagocytic activity (vitamins C, B1, B2, B6, B12, PP, glutamic acid, prodigiosane, polyglucine) was validated in the experiment.
