title: [Relation between serum and salivary IgA and oral aerobic bacterial flora in patients with chronic bronchitis].
abstract: Serum and salivary IgA and oral bacterial flora was determined in specimens collected from 28 patients with chronic bronchitis and 7 healthy persons. However, in serum IgA levels, the difference between the patients and controls was not found statistically significant, the mean salivary IgA level was significantly higher in the patients with spastic bronchitis than in infectious bronchitis and controls (p less than 0.01). The mean salivary IgA level was significantly higher in the patients from whom Haemophilus influenzae was isolated, it was lower in the specimens in which gram negative bacilli were isolated (p less than 0.01).
