title: [Liver function at the stage of intensive tuberculosis treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus].
abstract: Intensive pulmonary tuberculosis treatment was performed in 65 patients with this disease concurrent with diabetes according to the WHO recommendations. Among them there were 44 new cases and 21 cases with relapse. Comparing the hepatic functional parameters before the first intensive stage of treatment and after its termination (following 2-3 months) showed a regular and statistically significant increase in the activity of aminotransferases and a clear tendency for increases in the values of total bilirubin and thymol tests. These changes were equally pronounced with both treatment regimens in patients with types both I and II diabetes mellitus and within normal ranges and allowed the drug treatment regimens to be continued.
