[Effect of hyperbaric oxygenation on the course of experimental staphylococcal infection and on the immune status of the animal body].
In guinea pigs infected with staphylococci by subcutaneous injection a decreased content of T-lymphocytes, an increased number of B-lymphocytes and lower levels of lysozyme and complement were observed. When subjected to the action of hyperbaric oxygenation, the animals, both intact or infected with staphylococci, showed the aggravation of staphylococcal infection, a decrease in the number of T-lymphocytes and an increase in the content of B-lymphocytes. In the intact animals hyperbaric oxygenation stimulated the production of complement and lysozyme, produced a decrease in the number of T-lymphocytes and an increase in the number of B-lymphocytes.
