[Asthmatic bronchitis as the first manifestation of secondary immunodeficiency in hereditary enzymopathy in women].

The characteristics of nonspecific immunity were studied on an outpatient material of 80 non-smoking women aged 38-60 years, with manifestations of hereditary primary enzymopathy (hyperoxaluria syndrome). Hyperoxaluria was shown to be related to immunologic imbalance of some components of nonspecific resistance by the cellular and humoral type. In addition to biochemical differences, the group of patients with prognostically favourable chronic asthmatic bronchitis have got immunologic differences with the alternative group.
