[Effect of mesodiencephalic modulation on peripheral blood immunocompetent cells in viral-bacterial infections].

The effect of mesodiencephalic modulation (MDM) on peripheral blood immunocompetent cells during a mixed viral/bacterial infection was studied in 10 patients aged 15 to 35 suffering from acute respiratory diseases complicated by lacunar tonsillitis. Control group consisted of 10 patients aged 16 to 42. A course of MDM consisted of 4-5 daily 10-min sessions. MDM alleviated the course of respiratory diseases complicated by lacunar tonsillitis at the expense of activating body response to inflammation and due to immunomodulating effect of electropulse exposure on lymphocyte subpopulations.
