Popis: There were investigated clinical and laboratory parameters in patients with erysipelas in dependence on the gender. There were examined 145 patients with erysipelas, aged 18 to 64 years. Among the examined cases females consisted 65.9%, males — 34.1%. The clinical picture of erysipelas in females was characterized by a greater degree of severity. Age-related dishormonal changes in females burden the disease. Production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1a and TNF-a) in patients with erysipelas has no gender differences. The presented data revealed the modern clinical laboratory and gender characteristics of erysipelas.
