[The results of pneumothermometry and mucociliary clearance study in pulmonary tuberculosis patients].

Pneumothermometry was carried out in 136 patients with different forms of pulmonary tuberculosis. It was found that the temperature of the alveolar air in pulmonary tuberculosis patients depended on the character of the specific process on a lesser degree than on the spread of the process. The temperature of the exhaled alveolar air was most reduced in patients suffering of spread pulmonary tuberculosis with marked fibrosis of the pulmonary tissue. Disorders of the drainage function of the bronchi reflected mostly the character of the specific lesion of the pulmonary tissue and was most pronounced in patients with fibrous-cavernous cirrhotic tuberculosis.

[Incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis associated with chronic alcoholism and a complex treatment of those diseases].

It was shown that the prevalence of alcoholism among pulmonary tuberculosis patients was high and the outcomes of both the diseases proceeding in the presence of lowered immunity were often unfavourable, including the results of long-term follow-ups. The use of a specially constructed instrument for investigating the neurodynamic characteristics of the cerebral cortex and determination of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase in the serum promoted diagnosis of prenosological entities of alcoholism. Higher efficacy of alcoholism treatment in the patients with tuberculosis was achieved with narcotic psychotherapy using the mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen, esperal implantation and application of rifusal, a new preparation, as well as application of extracorporeal hemosorption and enterosorption for eliminating the intoxication. Higher efficacy of tuberculosis treatment in the alcoholic patients was achieved with intravenous drop-wise infusion of antituberculous drugs along with other routes of administration. For increasing the cellular immunity, the patients were treated with chlorophylliptum or T-activin. Continuation of the complex antialcoholic and antituberculous treatment of outpatients along with simultaneous observation by phthisiologists and narcologists provided higher results.

[The general characteristics of emergency states in pulmonology].

The causes of emergency conditions may be located extrapectorally, extrapulmonarily, tracheobronchially and bronchopulmonarily as well as intrapleurally. Circulatory disorders develop due to hypoxia, hypercapnia, acidosis, blood loss. The first stage (prodromal, latent) may be marked by a hazard of sudden deterioration of the general condition of the patient; intensive therapy is necessary during the second stage, reanimation measures and surgical intervention during the third stage.
