Microbial ecology and the state of the gastrointestinal mucosa in patients with allergic diseases

: Patients with allergic diseases of the skin and the respiratory system were found to have a high rate of disturbances in the microbial ecology of the gastrointestinal tract and the involvement of all its sections into the pathological process. On the mucous membrane of different sections of the digestive tract spiral-like bacteria were detected in a large percentage of cases. The possibility of the fact that the development and maintenance of the allergic process were evidently linked with the detected changes in the microbial ecology and pathomorphological features of the gastrointestinal mucosa could hardly be excluded, which made it necessary to make corrections in the therapeutic process.
