The objective:to study the change in immunological parameters in patients with primary osteoarthritis (OA) under conditions of comorbidity with the digestive tract (DT) diseases, accompanied by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). Materials and methods.The study included 304 patients with primary OA in comorbidity with DT diseases, accompanied by EPI out of exacerbation. The comparison group included 30 almost healthy persons. The patients with primary OA were comparable by age, gender and course of primary OA and were divided into 5 groups by type of comorbid pathology of DT organs, accompanied by EPI: the I group (n=62) – patients with primary OA without comorbid pathology, the 2d group (n=59) – patients with primary OA in comorbidity with chronic pancreatitis (CP), the 3d group (n = 60) – patients with primary OA in comorbidity with chronic noncalculous cholecystitis and functional diseases of gallbladder and biliary system, the 4th group (n=61) – patients with primary OA and chronic gastroduodenitis, the 5th group (n=61) – patients with primary OA and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Results.The analysis of immunological parameters in patients with primary OA indicated on the statistically significant changes in the studied indicators in all groups compared to the control group (p A statistically significant increase in the level of T-lymphocytes in all studied groups was revealed compared to the control group (p The presence of negative effects of comorbid gastroenterological diseases in primary OA on the formation of immunodeficiency was determined. Conclusions.A statistically higher level of autoimmune disorders in patients with primary osteoarthritis (OA) has been established under conditions of comorbidity with gastroenterological diseases, accompanied by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. It is proved that the deepening and progression of autoimmune disorders in primary OA is affected by the comorbidity of the digestive tract pathology. |
