AIM: To evaluate functional activity of the kidneys in patients with nonspecific pulmonary diseases (NSPD). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Routine renal function tests, registration of iron-induced urine chemiluminescence (CL), estimation of middle-molecular oligopeptides in blood serum and urine were made in 22 patients with pneumonia, 18 patients with chronic non-obstructive bronchitis and 16 ones with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. RESULTS: Urine CL was subnormal in all the patients. This CL intensity correlated with functional renal characteristics, negatively correlated with endotoxicosis severity. In a favourable course of the disease, CL intensity increased, renal function and content of middle-molecular oligopeptides in biological substrates normalized. In patients with lingering and chronic inflammation CL remained low, renal dysfunction and endotoxicosis persisted. CONCLUSION: Registration of iron-induced urine CL can be used for control over NSPD patients condition and efficacy of their treatment.
