title: [Determination of the granulocyte bone marrow reserve for evaluation of the leukocyte count in persons exposed to agents harmful to the hematopoietic system].
abstract: The authors present results of studies of granulocyte marrow reserve stimulated by prednison in 60 patients exposed to physical and chemical agents damaging the hematopoietic system and compare the results with those from examinations of a 10-persons control group. The response of the granulocyte system to the stimulus is confronted with the number of leukocytes and neutrophils of peripheral blood prior to stimulation, and with the myelogram. The authors indicate that the examination of granulocytes marrow reserve by the prednison as a stimulator may be used as one of the methods allowing for evaluating the degree of exogenous lesion of the hematopoietic system.
