In acute pneumococcal infection with the clinical picture of acute bronchitis or the exacerbation of chronic bronchitis 88-93% of patients showed the formation of secretory IgA to S. pneumoniae autostrains, i.e. a high correlation between the occurrence of these bacteria in the sputum and the local immune response of the body. The characteristic feature of antipneumococcal secretory IgA is their earlier, more intensive and less prolonged formation in comparison with that of serum antibodies. During the exacerbation of chronic bronchitis only in 28% of the patients secretory IgA to H. influenzae autostrains and low correlation between the formation of secretory and serum antibodies were detected.  相似文献

A total of 126 adult patients with acute bronchitis were subjected to microbiological, virological and immunological examination. Influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections were detected in 104 (82.5%) cases of acute bronchitis. The results of microbiological examination and the study of local and systemic immunity showed that in 94.4 +/- 2.6% of the patients the development of acute bronchitis was linked with the appearance of acute pneumococcal infection irrespective of the presence, or absence, of virologically and serologically confirmed acute viral or mycoplasmal infections.  相似文献

The intensity of the catabolism of cell receptors in yersiniosis was evaluated by the level of R-proteins in the blood sera of 95 patients. The study revealed that the degree of an increase in the level of R-protein depended on the severity and the course of the pathological process was the same in both nosological forms of the disease. The high and stable level of R-proteins was indicative of the possibility of the prolonged and relapsing course of yersiniosis.  相似文献

An epidemic outbreak of acute respiratory infection (295 patients) in an organized group of young people was observed in December-May 1997-1998. Pneumococcal etiology was established by means of indirect immunofluorescence reaction in cases of outpatient pneumonia (81.9%), acute bronchitis (80%) and acute respiratory diseases (92.5%). Respiratory chlamydiosis caused by Chlamydia pneumoniae was detected in enzyme immunoassay with the use of immunoComb Chlamydia Bivalent IgG in patients with pneumonia (66.7%), acute bronchitis (60%) and acute respiratory diseases (50%). Synergic relationship between pneumococcal and chlamydial infections was noted.  相似文献

Thirty children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia had a recurrence in the bone marrow after treatment was stopped electively. A second haematological remission was achieved in 27 (90%), and the median duration of remission was shortest (six months) in those relapsing within six months of stopping treatment. Four of six children relapsing over one year after stopping treatment remained in second haematological remission. Leukaemic infiltration of the central nervous system developed in four patients remaining in marrow remission. It is concluded that conventional chemotherapy is unlikely to be effective in children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia who relapse soon after stopping treatment, that "reprophylaxis" of the central nervous system probably with long-term intrathecal chemotherapy is essential, and that some patients relapsing after prolonged unmaintained remission may achieve long-term leukaemia-free survival.  相似文献

The state of interferon status was studied in 46 hospitalized children: 33 patients with complicated forms of acute respiratory virus infection (ARVI), such as pneumonia, bronchitis, etc., and 13 patients with vegetovascular dystonia (used as a comparison group). The study revealed that in patients with acute infections of the upper and lower respiratory tract considerable changes in their interferon system were registered. Children with ARVI were treated with Bifidumbacterin forte, a probiotic preparation, in large doses. Bifidumbacterin forte was found to produce a regulatory effect on the interferon system by enhancing the induction of alpha- and gamma-interferon and decreasing the production of serum interferon. The experience of using Bifidumbacterin forte in large doses proved that the preparation was well tolerated and could be used for the correction of interferon status.  相似文献

One hundred eighty nine children with acute bronchopulmonary infectious pathological processes were examined bacteriologically and serologically for typical pneumotropic pathogens, 47 of them being as well examined for atypical organisms. Microbial associations mainly with Mycoplasma and Pneumocystis and to a lesser extent with Chlamydia were isolated from the majority of the children. Reactivation of the cytomegalovirus infection was observed in 25 per cent of the children. Pneumonia and bronchitis due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae either as a monoagent or in associations were mainly stated in children over 7 years of age. No significant changes between the indices of the infection due to a definite organism and the active progression of the infectious process of the same etiology were revealed, though in the cases of chlamydiosis the changes reached almost 10 per cent. In cases of acute bronchitis and pneumonia the chlamydial or cytomegalovirus infection could be assumed to be of the persisting nature, mainly acute in cases of pneumococcal infection, mixed in cases of hemophilic or pneumocystic infection, primary contamination with a tendency to prolonged in cases of mycoplasmic infection. The findings of the examination and the clinical and anamnestic data showed that the clinical picture of acute pneumonia had specific features associated with the supposed etiological agents, still it could change under the action of associations of pneumotropic pathogens.  相似文献

A complex of methods for the detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Mycoplasma hominis in children and adults with respiratory diseases (acute, chronic and obstructive bronchitis, pneumonia, recurring croup, bronchial asthma), as well as in children frequently having acute respiratory diseases, has been worked out and tested. Both infective agents are frequently detected in the above mentioned pathological processes as monoinfection or mixed infection. Mycoplasma antigens are capable of prolonged (up to 1 year) persistence in the patient body in spite of etiotropic therapy and the presence of specific antibodies. The method of the preliminary treatment of specimens for the polymerase chain reaction is proposed: the specimens are subjected to prolonged deproteinization, which makes it possible to detect M. pneumoniae in some cases of chronic infection when it cannot be detected by routine methods.  相似文献

The efficacy and safety of Cifran OD, a new dosage form of ciprofloxacin with prolonged action were studied in the treatment of patients with bronchopulmonary infection (n=23). The drug was used orally in a dose of 1 g once a day. The patients were divided into 2 groups: group 1 included patients with aggravation of chronic bronchitis and group 2 included patients with bacterial pneumonia. The recovery was stated in 77.7% of the patients in group 1, the other 26.3% of the patients showed clinical improvement. In the patients with pneumonia (group 2) the recovery was recorded in 100% of the cases. No significant side effects were observed.  相似文献

An open post-marketing surveillance study was conducted to examine the treatment effect and safety of EPs® 7630-solution in the treatment of acute bronchitis in children.This study included a total of 742 children (aged between 0 and 12 years) with acute bronchitis (83.4%) or acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis (14.3%), who were treated with different doses of the herbal drug for up to 14 days. Five bronchitis specific symptoms (BSS) were summed up to give an overall measure of disease severity. Non-specific disease symptoms (loss of appetite, diarrhoea, headache, vomiting, and fever) were also recorded, together with adverse events and overall ratings of efficacy and tolerability.The overall BSS score decreased during treatment from 6.0±3.0 points at baseline to 2.7±2.5 points after 7 days and to 1.4±2.1 points after 14 days. Remission or improvement in at least 80% of patients was recorded for all the individual component symptoms. The proportion of patients suffering from non-specific symptoms also substantially improved during treatment. For example, loss of appetite was present in 65.8% of patients at study begin, but only in 27.6% at the time point of last observation visit. In 88.3% of cases, the responsible physician rated the treatment as successful. Adverse events were minor and transitory.In conclusion, EPs® 7630-solution was shown to be a safe and an effective treatment option for acute bronchitis or acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis in children.  相似文献

39 patients with acute infectious endocarditis were observed; of these, 28 patients had HIV infection at different stages of the disease. The specific features of the course of acute infectious endocarditis in HIV-infected patients were established. The severe course of acute septic endocarditis was observed in those patients whose parameters of the cell-mediated immune system (cells CD4+) were in the state of compensation or subcompensation. At different stages of HIV infection different clinical syndromes of infectious endocarditis prevailed. In patients with HIV infection the combined lesions of the heart valve apparatus were observed and mixed microflora was isolated from the blood more frequently. The development of acute septic endocarditis negatively affected the course of HIV infection and was manifested by a rapid decrease in the amount of CD4 lymphocytes.  相似文献

The prolonged (up to 2 years) complex observation of 11 rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) with spontaneous hepatitis A and 14 rhesus macaques with experimental hepatitis A developing after their intravenous and/or oral infection with human hepatitis A virus (HAV). Both natural and experimental infection took a chronic course (15-18 months). In 13 monkeys showing morphological changes in the liver during the whole period of the disease elevated enzyme levels in the blood and virus shedding in feces were periodically observed. Only one monkey had acute hepatitis A which lasted 1.5 months. In 11 monkeys the disease took an undulating course with 1-2 relapses when virological, biochemical and morphological signs of the disease could be detected. Seroconversion was observed in all monkeys. Anti-HAV IgM antibodies were retained for not more than 6-7 months and total anti-HAV antibodies, during the whole period of observation. Relapses were found to induce no antibody formation. Evidence on the prolonged (up to 12-16 months) persistence of HAV in primates was obtained for the first time.  相似文献

The content of cytokines of type Tx1 (IL-2 and IFN-gamma) and type Tx2 (IL-4) in blood sera of 132 patients with hepatitis C and the combined form of hepatitis B + C was studied. For control, blood sera taken from healthy donors were used. A significant increase, in comparison with the control, in the content of IL-4 in all subgroups of the patients was registered. The content of IFN-gamma reached the maximum level in patients with acute hepatitis C with the positive result of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the virus (216.4 and 46.4 pg/ml respectively) and was somewhat lower in acute hepatitis C with the negative PCR-result (77.7 and 9.6 pg/ml), mean while in the chronic course of hepatitis C these data were within the limits of control values irrespective of the results of PCR. In case of mixed infection in the acute clinical form a significant increase in the concentration of IFN-gamma (34.4 pg/ml) in comparison with the control (25.3 pg/ml) was observed. The content of IFN-gamma in patients with acute hepatitis C and the positive result of the test for NS antibodies also reached the maximum level (207.3 and 42.7 pg/mg respectively). But in contrast to hepatitis C in the acute form with the negative results of PCR in patients with hepatitis C in the acute form and the negative results of the NS test these data were within the limits of control values, as well as in the chronic course of hepatitis C irrespective of the results of the NS antibodies serum test. In case of mixed infection a significant increase in the concentration of IFN-gamma was registered in the subgroup of patients with the acute form of NS+ (39.9 pg/ml). The data obtained in this study were indicative of significant changes in the serum profile of serum cytokines of types Tx1 and Tx2 in different forms and courses of virus hepatitis. This makes it possible to believe that the chronization of the process was associated with the prevalence of the Tx2 function.  相似文献

Transitional forms and round bodies of Haemophilus influenzae were identified in sputa from patients with chronic bronchitis who were receiving penicillin therapy for H. influenzae infections. In vitro growth of L forms of this organism was induced by penicillin and glycine and was studied for comparison with development in vivo. Variant forms demonstrated in sputum were similar to variant forms observed in penicillin-induced L colonies. Recurrence of infection after cessation of therapy was related to reversion of persisting L forms to bacillary forms. That these forms were derived from H. influenzae was established by direct staining with fluoresceinlabeled specific antibody. This demonstration that transitional forms and round bodies of H. influenzae occurred in vivo suggests that L forms of bacteria may be significant in chronic or recurrent infections.  相似文献

Lupoid leishmaniasis is a unique form of cutaneous leishmaniasis characterized by unusual clinical features and a chronic relapsing course, mostly caused by infection with Leishmania tropica. In this clinical form, 1-2 yr after healing of the acute lesion, new papules and nodules appear at the margin of the remaining scar. Herein, we describe a case of this clinical form that was resistant to 2 courses of treatments: systemic glucantime and then a combination therapy with allopurinol and systemic glucantime. However, marked improvement was seen after a combination therapy with topical trichloroacetic acid solution (50%) and systemic glucantime, and there were no signs of recurrence after 1 yr of follow-up.  相似文献

No bacteria were observed in an epizootic of lethal pneumonia in guinea pigs. Necrotic bronchitis and bronchiolitis with basophilic intranuclear inclusion bodies in bronchial epithelial cells were characteristic. Although adenovirus infection of guinea pigs has not previously been reported, histological findings paralleled those found in adenovirus infections of other animals including man. Virus particles found by electron-microscopical examination of the lung tissue closely resembled adenoviruses. The disease seemed to have a low contagiousness, a low morbidity (about 0.7%), but an acute course and a high mortality (100%).  相似文献

Analysis of clinical-roentgen-laboratory features of the course of hereditarily determined gout in 74 patients is represented. It is exhibited that hereditarily induced gout begins at the young age and is accompanied by the acute disturbance of purine exchange resulting in serious relapsing course of the articular (with availability of radiological attributes of osteal destruction) and the renal syndromes (urate nephrolithiasis, immune complex glomerulonephritis, tubulointerstitional nephritis) as well as in the early occurrence and rapidly progressing chronic renal insufficiency. The disease is accompanied by high frequency of the cardiovascular pathologies negatively influencing the mean lifetime of patients.  相似文献

Seventy-four survivors of acute carbon monoxide poisoning were followed up for an average of three years. In eight patients gross neuropsychiatric damage was directly attributable to the poisoning. Three patients had committed suicide and eight had died from other causes. Morbidity and mortality in those deliberately and accidentally poisoned was approximately equal.Of 63 patients alive at follow-up eight showed an improvement and 21 (33.3%) a deterioration of personality after poisoning, and 27 (43%) reported a subsequent impairment of memory. Deterioration of personality and memory impairment were highly correlated. The level of consciousness on admission to hospital in the acute phase of poisoning correlated significantly with the development of gross neuropsychiatric sequelae. These findings emphasize the importance of prompt and efficient treatment of carbon monoxide poisoning and the need to follow-up all cases in the anticipation of a relapsing course or the development of sequelae.  相似文献

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is the most important infectious disease agent of pigs worldwide, causing reproductive failure in pregnant sows and respiratory problems in nursing and growing pigs. PRRSV infection is characterized by a prolonged viremia of 30 or more days and an extended persistent infection of lymphoid tissues. To better understand the immunological basis for prolonged acute and persistent PRRSV infection, we have examined the cell-mediated immune (CMI) response throughout the course of infection and compared the results to the local distribution and abundance of PRRSV in infected tissues. PRRSV-specific T cells, enumerated by gamma interferon enzyme-linked immunospot assay, did not appear until 2 weeks after PRRSV inoculation, and their abundance exhibited substantial variation over time and among animals. In all cases the T-cell response was transient. High levels of viral RNA were present in lymphoid tissues of all animals in the acute phase of infection. Viral loads were decreased 1,000-fold or more in persistent infections, with the primary sites of persistence being tonsil, sternal lymph node, and inguinal lymph node. The abundance of virus-specific T cells in either acutely or persistently infected animals was highly variable and showed no correlation to the level of virus in lymphoid tissues. No significant difference in antigen-specific T-cell abundance was observed in secondary lymphoid tissues in either acute or persistent infection except for tonsil, in which the number of responding cells was extremely low. CD4(+)- and CD8(+)-T-cell frequencies did not change after PRRSV infection, though a decrease in gammadelta T cells was observed. Macrophages, the permissive cell type for PRRSV, were present in various levels in all tissue preparations and were not in proportion to local virus load. These findings indicate that a weak CMI response contributes to prolonged PRRSV infection and suggests that PRRSV suppresses T-cell recognition of infected macrophages. Thus, the slow but eventual resolution of PRRSV infection may be dependent on limiting permissive macrophages and on innate immune factors.  相似文献
