The incidence rate of pyoderma and immune status indices in students of Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on the background of using Imunofan
The effect of Imunofan on particular indices of the immune status and incidence rates of pyodermas in students of military training units was studied. The examination embraced 150 healthy soldiers serving their first year in the armed forces and included clinical and special immuno-biochemical methods of investigation. As has been found, in the period of forming military collectives a high incidence rate of pyodermas is noted among enlisted men in training military units. Therefore, the soldiers' immunoreactivity suffers, which is manifested by inhibition of certain indices of immune status, in particular, relative amounts of B-lymphocytes and T helper lymphocytes on the background of inhibition of the functional activity of mononuclear phagocytes. The use of the regulatory peptide Imunofan results in decrease of the incidence rates of pyodermas in such training units by more than 3 times and yields a correcting effect on the indices of cellular immune response in soldiers- students of military training units.
