title: [Post-infection clinico-immunologic syndrome: fundamentals of etiopathogenesis and immunogenodiagnostic strategy].
abstract: Professor Yu.M. Lopukhin, an ardent advocate of translation of scientific achievements into clinical medicine, is a founder of new scientific disciplines including clinical immunology that evolved from the fusion of new knowledge, original clinical thought, high-tech diagnostic and therapeutic modalities. Highly promising investigations into molecular pathogenetic mechanisms of various diseases, their diagnosis, and prevention make up a most important aspect of his scientific work. The progress of chronic recurring infectious diseases (CRID) is closely related to the associated immune disorders, e.g. post-infection clinico-immunologic syndrome (PIKIS) that reflects the character and severity of disturbances of immune homeostasis. This syndrome associated with CRID is as a rule provoked by infectious agents of different nature, immunopathologic processes inherent in individual patients, specific clinical course ofCRID or inadequate application of antimicrobial medicines. Three forms of PIKIS are described in this paper: (1) post-infection secondary immunodeficiency syndrome:, (2) post-infection autoimmune syndrome, (3) combination of the two.
