[Effectiveness of BCG vaccination in children in relation to genetic and social factors].
The social status, genetic parameters, somatic and infectious diseases have been studied in BCG--vaccinated children who presented a postvaccinal cicatrix and in those in whom it did not form. Children having a postvaccinal cicatrix were found to belong mainly to the muscular type of constitution, while those without it--to the thoracic type. It was shown that a one--time positive tuberculin reaction to the Mantoux test with 2 TU (infiltrate of 6-7 mm) is associated with somatic and infectious pathology. This reaction can be considered to be para--allergy within 4 months after the disease.
