[Galvanization of the area of the spleen as a method of immunocorrection in patients with chronic bronchitis].
The effect of galvanization of the splenic area on immune system was studied in 31 patients with chronic bronchitis versus that of immunomodulating drug thymalin (25 patients) or combined rehabilitation without special immunocorrectors (39 patients). Galvanization produced a good response in disorders of cellular and humoral immunities (primarily in low count of T-lymphocytes and T-suppressors), of interactions between immunity components. Immunocorrective effect of galvanization was comparable with that of thymalin.
