Intravenous laser radiation in rheumatoid arthritis: dynamics of cytokine profile and disease activity

[Internal diseases]
Nina Burduli; Nikolay Burduli;

The dynamics of cytokine profile in patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with intravenous laser radiation was studied. 102 patients were examined using clinical, laboratory and instrumental methods in accordance with the criteria ACR/EULAR for rheumatoid arthritis. The data obtained demonstrated the imbalance of the cytokine profile in rheumatoid arthritis patients with the predominance of the proinflammatory cytokines secretion. Laser therapy contributed to the improving of the cytokine network balance, led to earlier decrease of rheumatoid arthritis activity and resulted in faster remission in comparison with the traditional drug therapy.
