[Serum antigens in the evaluation of the effectiveness of pyelonephritis therapy].
Blood serum levels of stage-specific antigens were measured by radioimmunoassay and immunodiffusion methods in patients with acute pyelonephritis at various stages of traditional antibacterial therapy and ultraviolet autoblood irradiation. Under study were ferritin, beta 2-microglobulin, C-reactive protein, transferrin, alpha 2-macroglobulin, and haptoglobin levels. Kinetics of the measured proteins was demonstrated and the possibility of applying their identification to assessment of treatment efficacy shown. The levels of these proteins are shown to be not only indicators of inflammation and destruction in pyelonephritis, but to reflect as well the repair reactions in the body which course most actively when UV irradiation of autoblood is added to multiple-modality treatment schemes.
