Complex clinical examination of aluminium production workers having broncho-pulmonary diseases revealed immunologic criteria of toxic dust bronchitis, diffuse pneumosclerosis and secondary infection-dependent bronchial asthma, caused by combination of occupational hazards. Contribution of allergic environmental factors was shown as they deplete immune reserves in the workers. The authors proved efficiency of contemporary immune modulator polyoxydonium, when included into the complex therapy.
