Abstract
Currently, acute respiratory infections (ARI) are obviously considered to be the most topical issue of pediatric practice. It is worth noted that the age peculiarities of immune system in preschool children stipulated their higher vulnerability to infections and less differentiated response against infection process compared to older children and adults. Research aim consisted in finding out significant factors which are closely associated with serum immunoglobulin (Ig) levels in preschool children against the background of recurrent ARI.
Highlights
Acute respiratory infections (ARI) are obviously considered to be the most topical issue of pediatric practice
The physiologic values of Ig A, M, G and E serum concentration are most often revealed among examined preschool children
The infection index directly correlates with Ig E serum concentration emphasizing the importance of allergy as a major factor contributing to the development of recurrent respiratory diseases
