[The blood count of regulatory T-lymphocyte subpopulations in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].

Important aspects are discussed of clinical evaluation of regulatory subpopulations of T-lymphocytes (T-helpers and T-suppressors) in the blood of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Imbalance of these subpopulations in the patients with normal values of E-REG BTR with PHA allows to establish immunity disorders in supplementary group of patients. Subpopulation imbalance is an unfavourable prognostic sign and one of indications to immunomodulating therapy.
