[Medical prophylaxis of occupational intoxication in polyvinyl chloride industry]. / Meditsinskaia profilaktika professional'nykh intoksikatsii v proizvodstve polivinilkhlorida.

The study covered clinical and laboratory findings, immunity parameters in 103 workers of polymer compounds production. The individuals exposed to chlorine organic chemicals: mercuric vapors, gaseous chlorine demonstrate specific changes of metabolic parameters. The data on protein synthesis, monooxygenases activity, lipid metabolism, state of membranes (lipoprotein complex, peroxidases, ALa-AT, Asp-AT), immune activity enabled to design prophylactic measures. To accomplish the therapeutic measures, the department for prevention of occupational intoxication is organized in local industrial medical center.

[The immune reactivity characteristics of persons engaged in the manufacture of protein-vitamin concentrates]. / Osobennosti immunnoi reaktivnosti lits, zaniatykh v proizvodstve belkovo-vitaminnykh kontsentratov.

Immunologic studies in 130 protein-vitamin concentrate production workers of Angarsk showed the characteristic changes in clinically healthy individuals, suffering from allergic conditions. The changes are: increased levels of T lymphocytes, T killers, T helpers, B lymphocytes, decreased levels of T suppressors and IgA. Immunologic reactivity predisposing to allergic conditions and chronic course of inflammations was found to appear in the workers engaged in protein-vitamin concentrate production.

[The effect of anti-recurrence treatment with isoniazid in combination with etimizol on the immune reactivity of Group III ambulatory care patients]. / Vliianie protivoretsidivnogo lecheniia izoniazidom v sochetanii s étimizolom na immunnuiu reaktivnost' lits III gruppy dispansernogo nabliudeniia.

Findings of immunologic observation of 35 subjects included into Group III of dispensary observation before and after antirecurring treatment with isoniazid and isoniazid in combination with ethymisole are presented. The findings indicate there is inhibition of immune cellular reactions in the above subjects (lower levels of T-suppressors and T-helpers and increased content of O-cells). Unfavorable changes in men are aggravated by suppressing antibody production; higher phagocytic blood activity is also detected. Thus, the antirecurring treatment promoted the normalization of immune reactions.
