The materials presented in this paper suggest that in the 1960s the openly negative syndrome occurred after chemotherapy in 8.7% of the patients registered at a tuberculosis facility for destructive pulmonary tuberculosis. This syndrome persists for 3 years or more (according to the data of bacterioscopy, sputum inoculation and biological test on guinea pigs). Of great interest are the data of histological study made under the head of Prof. V. I. Puzik on experimental animals. The absence of specific reactions in response to a biological test and the presence of significant lymphoid focal and diffuse infiltration in the lungs, hyperplasia of follicles of the spleen and lymph nodes allow them to be regarded as immunomorphological reactions in response to the protein components of destroyed Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MBT). The long existing openly negative syndrome is also presented observed in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis but only in those who isolate MBT sensitive to antituberculous agents.

Electron microscopic study of tuberculous inflammation in different phases of its evolution evaluated the functional status of cellular elements of the lung and granuloma. The body's antituberculous resistance due to molecular genetic mechanisms is realized through intercellular interactions and macrophageal functions. Immune macrophages are characterized by a higher metabolic activity, they suppress the intracellular multiplication of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MBT) and are more protected from their toxic action. The pathogenetic mechanisms responsible for caseous pneumonia were studied. Three stages of evolution of the process: Stage 1 is the breakdown of defense and adaptive mechanisms: disorganization of connective tissue and alveolar parenchyma; enhanced permeability of blood and lymphatic microvascular walls with developed interstitial and intraalveolar edema, plasma and fibrin exudation, fibrinoid swelling of collagenous fibers, and their lysis; occurrence of lung parenchymal microinfarcts and infarction-pneumonia; type 2 alveolocytic dysfunction with surfactant destruction; Stage 2 is the breakdown of local immunity; exudative and alterative tuberculous inflammation with involvement of immunocompetent organs; suppressed T-cellular immunity, a shift of a T helper/T suppressor ratio to the latter, lymphopenia; impaired intercellular interactions, cellular apoptosis in blood and inflammation areas, and suppressed granulomatous reaction; inhibited L transformation of Mycobacteria tuberculosis, intensive MBT multiplication in the foci of tuberculous inflammation, particularly those which are resistant to many antibiotic drugs, a larger number of associations of the nonspecific microflora and fungi. Stage 3 is caseous pneumonia and generalization of a tuberculous process: a predominance of an alterative reaction of inflammation; the presence of allergic and caseous and necrotic vasculitis, bronchiolitis, and endo-panbronchitis; depressed granulomatous reaction; the development of acute alterative sequestrating pneumoniogenic caverns.

The analysis revealed an increase in the incidence of acutely progressive forms of pulmonary tuberculosis. Autoptic data indicated that in 83.7% of cases, acute progressive tuberculosis was associated with the development of caseous pneumonia as an independent tuberculous process (31.7%) and as a phase of ensuing development of other forms (52.0%). The distinctive morphological features of today's caseous pneumonia were as follows: a great extent of lesion, an unrestrained progression of a process, a predominance of an alterative-and-exudative component of tuberculous inflammation, a rapid decay and suppuration of caseous masses, no differentiation of caseous and pneumonic foci, and suppressed cellular reactions of tissue immunity.

There is evidence for the high efficacy and low reactogenicity of lower antigenicity-loading BCG-M vaccine that causes a 15-fold decrease in infant morbidity, as compared with that among non-vaccinated children, and this vaccine shows a 5-fold reduction in postvaccination complications as compared with BGC vaccine. The 26-year use of tuberculin diagnosis via Mantoux test with 2TE PPD-L during mass vaccination of children and adolescents has proved itself in early identification of tuberculosis and risk groups. A new risk group has been identified. This includes children with increasing tuberculin reactions; three-month intermittent chemoprevention with isoniazid reduces tuberculin sensitivity in the children and prevents tuberculosis in them. The developed short-term (6-9 months) courses of chemotherapy in preschool and school children by using drugs (isoniazid + rifampicin + pyrazinamide) yield the best healing without residual changes of uncomplicated forms of tuberculosis in 83 and 60% of the children with complicated events, respectively.
