RESULTS OF IMMUNE STATUS IN SICK CHILDREN WITH ATOPIC DERMATITIS USING ACUNE REFLEX THERAPY AND EXTERNAL THERAPY

Abstract

Increasing the effectiveness of the treatment of dermatological patients with atopic dermatitis is an important social task. Purpose of the study. To study immunological indicators in children with atopic dermatitis and develop a method of corrective therapy in the process of acupuncture with the use of Broncho-munal. Materials and research methods. 32 children with atopic dermatitis aged 12 to 14 years were under observation. The results of the studies allow us to conclude that acupuncture has a normalizing effect on the parameters of the humoral link of the immune system of girls with atopic dermatitis. The question arises about the possible mechanisms of such action of acupuncture. Research results: The mean values ​​of the levels of immunoglobulins A, G, M in children with atopic dermatitis before treatment did not significantly differ from normal values. An increase in the level of IgG was found in 14 (43.7%) patients. Of particular interest was the study of total IgE in patients with atopic dermatitis. In most patients during the period of exacerbation, a pronounced hyperproduction of IgE was found. The highest average level of IgE was observed in sick children with moderate severity of the disease. Findings: In the pathogenesis of sick children with atopic dermatitis, there is a change in the functional activity of the humoral link of immunity, expressed in an increase in the level of serum IgE.
