title: [THE ROLE OF SERUM COLLAGEN TYPE III AUTOANTIBODIES AND STRUCTURAL AND OPTICAL PROPERTIES IN THE EVALUATION OF REPARATIVE PROCESSES IN CHILDREN WITH TUBERCULOSIS].
abstract: The paper gives the results of an original study of the morphological pattern of serum elementary association along with ELISA determination of collagen type III autoantibody levels in the sera of 84 children with active pulmonary tuberculosis and 25 children from risk groups as shown by the data of tuberculin diagnosis. There is evidence that a package of these methods is highly effective in evaluating lung tissue reparative processes in children with pulmonary tuberculosis. The proposed original analysis matrix that permits the outcome of the specific process to be predicted from the concentration of collagen type III autoantibodies and the type of leaf-shaped structures is promising for use at specialized facilities.
