[Relationship of the course of nephrotuberculosis in patients to various combinations of genetic markers].

To examine the body's responsiveness in different forms of nepthrotuberculosis, 237 patients underwent comprehensive clinical laboratory studies. To reveal various combinations of genetic markers, the authors determine the phenotypes of haptoglobin, the activity of red blood cell glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, the type of inactivation of isonicotinic acid hydrazide. According to the combinations of a complex of these genetic markers, the authors identified 4 combinations: poor, good, relatively poor, and relatively good. The studies indicated the high incidence of common forms of nephrotuberculosis in subjects with poor and relatively poor combinations of genetic markers. The determination of various chronic renal failure-associated combinations of genetic markers may be used to identify risk groups for this disease.
