[Cellular immunity in patients with gonorrhea and gonorrhea-chlamydia infection during treatment with pefloxacin in combination with thymogen]
Plain-language summary
Paraphrased from the published abstract below — not a verdict on whether anything works.
This study used ultrastructural and morphometric analysis of blood leukoconcentrate from patients with gonorrhea and gonorrhea-chlamydia infection during treatment with pefloxacin (abaktal) combined with immunomodulators. The abstract reports that under abaktal the incomplete phagocytic reaction completed, with phagocytosis of a multistage character, and that combinations of immunomodulators with abaktal increased the polymorph digestion function. The authors state this favored their suggestion to use abaktal for treating gonorrheal-chlamydial infection.
Abstract
The ultrastructural analysis showed that under the effect of abaktal (pefloxacin) the incomplete phagocytic reaction completed, the phagocytosis being of the multistage character. The morphometric analysis of the blood leukoconcentrate revealed an increase in the polymorph digestion function after the exposure to combinations of immunomodulators with abaktal which was in favour of the abaktal recommendation for the treatment of gonorrheal-chlamydial infection.
