292 patients with mast blastocytoma who were diagnosed after hydatiform pregnancy, after birth and post pregnancy basing on the examinations of beta-HCG, of matastasis and of anapathology, treated till beta HCG < 5 UI/l. According to US classification, the age of the group 1 (non metastasis ligh mast blastocytoma) is younger than group 2 (metastasis severe mast blastocytoma) and in the group 2 the duration from termination of pregnancy to detection of the condition is longer than group 1. In the group of mast blastocytoma of severe prognosis there are an uterus damage of chorion carcinoma, an invasive hydatiform pregnancy.

A study was conducted on 28 burning sepsis patients treated at the National Institute of Burn. Results showed that their capacity of bacteriophage and of EA rosette formation of polynuclear neutrophil white blood cells was reduced in comparing with healthy patients and with other no burn sepsis patients, as well as burning no sepsis patients. Their white blood cells function restored gradually with the improvement of the condition. Thus the capacity of bacteriophage and EA rosette formation have reflected the state of burning conditions, and their monitoring can help the evaluation and prognosis
