Secondary immunodeficiency states – acomplicated "addition" to numerous diseases of internal organs

Abstract

Progressive environmental degradation, an intense increase of the life tempo and associated with them long-term psycho-emotional stress, deterioration of the biological value of food, and drinking water quality contribute to the growth of population morbidity of the Earth's population and significantly weaken the human immune system under the influence of numerous exo- and endogenous factors. There is an unfortunate prospect of increasing the frequency and severity of immunodeficiency states (IDS) and their appearance in younger people. Often, IDS manifest themselves as an "addition" to any disease or group of diseases of different organs and systems in one individual. Diagnosis, especially the treatment tactics of IDS is quite complex, often delayed, controversial and constantly improving. One of the reasons for "delay" in diagnosis is the lack of awareness of young doctors of different profiles, especially therapeutic, about this problem.
