At present, the reaction of phagocytosis as a method for assessing the reactive properties of the organism is attributed great importance (A. D. Ado, T. G. Nikolaev). Of the many ways to study the activity of the reaction of the reticuloendothelial system, the most accessible and direct is the determination of the phagocytic properties of blood leukocytes.

In the diagnosis of rheumatism, significant help is provided by modern biochemical research methods, in particular, the determination of protein-carbohydrate complexes, the number of which increases markedly in rheumatism. Seromucoid is a mucoprotein rich in carbohydrates, soluble in perchloric acid. "

In the clinic of nervous diseases from 1936 to 1963. 607 patients with multiple sclerosis were treated, which is 4.4% of the total number of patients treated in this clinic during the specified period, and is close to the average for the entire Volga region (4.28% - N. I. Grashchenkov, A. B. Rogover , M.B. Gekht, A.M. Wein, 1960).
