[Immunologic indices for the diagnosis of the initial stages of chronic alcoholism].

Immunologic examinations of 60 patients suffering from common hard drinking and of 24 chronic alcoholics, stage I, has revealed a clear-cut difference in the levels of circulating immune complexes and theophylline-sensitive lymphocytes in these populations. These data are recommended as additional tests for the differential diagnosis of the initial forms of alcoholism.

[Various indices of immunity in patients with alcoholic delirium].

Seventy-four patients with alcoholic delirium were studied for the parameters of the T- and B-system of immunity and natural resistance. The patients versus normal donors presented a statistically significant decrease in the number and proliferative activity of T-lymphocytes, an increase in IgA, as well as a reduction in levels of lysozyme, complement and bactericidal activity of the serum. The presence of immunological shifts after the completion of detoxifying therapy suggests that treatment should be continued even after the disappearance of psychic disturbances.
