ABSTRACT

The aim of our investigation was to study the influence of low-intensity laser therapy at the immunologic parameters and Helicobacter pylori (HP) microbial contamination in patients with exacerbation of peptic and duodenal ulcer. 100 patients aged 18-65 were examined and divided into 2 groups. The experimental group (75 patients) underwent a complex drug and laser therapy of various therapeutic techniques. The control group (25 patients) underwent only drug therapy. The results of this study show the immunocorrective effect of different methods of low-intensity laser therapy in the exacerbation period and more essential decrease of HP microbial contamination in the experimental group.
