[The specific features of the serum pattern in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].
The specific features of the serum pattern were studied in 340 tuberculosis patients with different forms and phases of a specific process, by using wedge dehydration. In patients with tuberculosis, the predominant serum morphological type was established to be an ordered one with the radial pattern being preserved (50.3%) (r = 0.95); out of the pathological masses, toxic plaques (77.65%) and protein zone folds (66.2%) were prevalent (r = 0.98). In patients with circumscribe pulmonary tuberculosis and the productive course of the process, there was a preponderance of an ordered serum morphological type and indistinct markers of intoxication and lung tissue sclerosis. Disseminated tuberculosis with decay and complications was marked by a depressive serum morphological type [37.6% (r = 0.72)], severe metabolic disturbances, and markers of intoxication and lung tissue sclerosis.
