title: [Effect of the heterogeneity of persons vaccinated, with respect to the state of their immune system, on the intensity of the immune response].
abstract: Prior to the immunization of children aged 3-7 years with parotitis vaccine the state of their immune system was evaluated by the determination of the concentration of IgM, IgG and IgA, the ratio and absolute numbers of T- and B-lymphocytes, the intensity of the blast transformation of lymphocytes. This study revealed that the group of immunized children was essentially heterogeneous with respect to the state of their immune system: in 79.9% of the children all immunological characteristics were normal, in 20.1% of the children some deviations from the characteristics considered to be normal for their age (gammopathy, eosinophilia, the deficiency of T- and B-lymphocytes, a decrease in the intensity of their blast transformation, the leftward shift of the leukocytic formula) were noted. The intensity of humoral immune response in children with deviations from normal characteristics peculiar to their age was significantly lower than in children with normal immunological characteristics. On the basis of these results, the immunological rehabilitation of the risk group among the children to be immunized is recommended.
