[Immunologic changes in the acute period of slight craniocerebral trauma].

The authors discuss the results of a dynamic study of the characteristics of nonspecific immune responsiveness (properdin, total protein and globulin fractions in blood plasma, C-reactive protein, and immunoglobulins G, A, and M) as well as of the index of water metabolism of the brain matter--the antidiuretic hormone (ADH) in plasma, in 259 patients with the nosological forms of a mild craniocerebral injury 145 of whom had concussion of the brain and 105 had mild contusion of the brain. Congruence of the clinical manifestations of the injury and the level of plasma ADH was recorded. The participation of the factors of nonspecific immune responsiveness in the body compensatory posttraumatic reactions and the genesis of the clinical manifestations of a mild craniocerebral injury is emphasized.
