[Diagnostic features of focal pulmonary tuberculosis in new cases].
The authors examined 120 new cases of focal pulmonary tuberculosis (FPT) during the good epidemic situation years (1982-1986) and 70 patients during the poor epidemic situation years (1995-1999). The latter years were marked by a worse social composition, more frequent contacts with those isolating bacteria, a more severe course with weight loss, prolonged subfebrile temperatures, anemia, an increasing tendency for lung tissue decay and even in large foci, a more frequent bacterial isolation along with progressive immunodeficiency. New diagnostic technologies, such as computed tomography, T-lymphocytic studies at the subpopulational level by using monoclonal narrow-specific antibodies, adaptive response tests that reflect the body's responsiveness, are of value in diagnosing FPT.
