title: [Content of tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 1-alpha in patients with acute purulent pleural cavity].
abstract: There were 60 patients with an acute purulent affection of pleural cavity were examined. Dynamic of the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) content under the influence of complex surgical treatment of these patients was studied. While hospitalization of patients the TNF-alpha level was (63.9 +/- 0.5) pg/l, IL-1 alpha-(169.8 +/- 0.5) pg/l. Performance of complex surgical treatment, basing on method of clinic, had promoted the elimination of purulent-septic damage, reduction of this indexes concentration, accordingly, down to (0.002 +/- 0.01) and (31.8 +/- 0.704) pg/l.
