title: [Influence of treatment of vanadium electrophoresis on certainbio-chemical and immunological indicators in patients with prolonged cases of pneumonia].
abstract: Inflammatory process in bronchial and lung tissues during the prolonged cases of pneumonia causes failure of immunological system and depression of glucocorticoid and androgenic functions of cortex of kidneys. That's why it's important to find new, more effective anti-inflammation means causing reduction and even disappearance of inflammatory process in bronchi and lungs, influencing immunological system positively and normalizing its condition and cortex of kidneys. 65 patients of age from 25 till 64 were examined, from which 31 had nidal prolonged pneumonia and 39 had interstitial prolonged pneumonia. It was stated that treatment with vanadium electrophoresis causes reduction and even disappearance of the inflammatory process in bronchi and lungs in the patients with prolonged pneumonia, leading to the strengthening of cellular chain of the immunity, nonspecific resistance of the organism, has a desensitisation influence, strengthens glucorticoid and androgenic functions of cortex of kidneys, normalises interchange of proteins and humoral immunity, increased substance (contents) of vanadium in the whole blood. Indicated positive results were more significant in the cases of nidal prolonged pneumonia.
