[The determination of sialic acids in the lymphocytes of multiple sclerosis patients].
Overall, twenty patients with multiple sclerosis of varying degree severity, its clinical course being dissimilar among patients, were studied for lymphocyte concentration of sialic acids. It has been ascertained that multiple sclerosis provokes augmentation of lymphocyte content of sialic acids, with greater increase being noted in patients with 1 to 3 and 6 to 9 scores on the Kurtzke's scale and in women as well.
