[Steroidal leukocytosis and immediate results of treatment in patients with sarcoidosis].
The occurrence of steroidal leukocytosis at early stages of an observation may, to a certain extent, serve an objective criterion for predicting the pronounced immediate results of treatment in first detected patients with sarcoidosis (that of intrathoracic lymph nodes and the lung in particular) and thus makes it possible to judge the adequacy of therapy in the inpatient setting. When steroidal leukocytosis is absent, it is necessary to differentiately decide whether it is expedient to correct a hormonal therapy regimen in order to achieve the optimal results of its efficiency.
