METHOD OF PREDICTING EFFICIENCY OF ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY IN CASE IN HIV-INFECTION Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC A61B10/02 G01N33/53 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, namely to infectious disease, and can be used for prediction of antiretroviral therapy efficiency in case of HIV-infection. For this purpose by method of solid-phase immunoenzyme assay level of cytokines is determined. If indices of soluble tumour necrosis factor alpha receptor protein 75 are from 4335.48 to 6001.86 pg/ml, soluble tumour necrosis factor alpha receptor protein 55 - from 768.72 to 1323.87 pg/ml and soluble interleukin-6 receptor from 1770.77 to 3800.31 pg/ml, favourable clinic course of HIV-infection after 1-3 months since beginning of antiretroviral therapy is predicted.

EFFECT: method ensures increase of accuracy of antiretroviral therapy efficiency prediction due to selection of certain immunological criteria.
