| Abstract |
Comparative study of the quantitative changes and functional activity of T- and B-type immunity in workers with various degrees of pesticide poisoning. There were pronounced changes in cellular immunity. The deficit in T-lymphocytes was accompanied by a reduction in their activity, and the number of B-lymphocytes was increased in most of the exposed workers. The rates of T- and B-lymphocytes in the peripheral blood depended on the clinical picture of poisoning. Careful assessment of these 2 types of immunity is of diagnostic value and permits judgment of the course of poisoning. |
