[Systemic responsiveness and the efficiency of antihomotoxic therapy for chronic opisthorchiasis. 3. Responsiveness].

The authors consider systematic responsiveness in chronic opisthorchiasis and a relationship between acute inflammation and responsiveness. A number of regularities that take place in the patho- and sanogenesis of chronic disease in general and that are important in the evaluation of the severity and prognosis of the disease and the efficiency of therapy are demonstrated on a model of severe opisthorchiasis. The reversion syndrome indicative of recovered responsiveness during therapy is described in detail. Differences in the interpretation of the helminthoovoscopic findings are shown in the context of the priority of clinical data.
