title: [Comparative study of the influence of melatonin and diclofenac on some hematologic indices of experimental rheumatoid arthritis in rats].
abstract: Pineal hormone melatonin (1 and 5 mg/kg) and diclofenac (8 mg/kg) significantly limited hematologic indices of inflammation and immunologic reactivity in rats with experimental adjuvant arthritis. The effect of melatonin was more pronounced than that of diclofenac.
