Effect of urinary tract infections with Klebsiella pneumoniae on some immunological variables for patients admitted to Ramadi General Hospital

Abstract

Background Urinary tract infections in women are more common, as the urethra or urethra is short, which makes the distance for bacteria to reach the bladder shorter, and urinary tract infections are transmitted to women when they have sex with a man who has a urinary tract infection, and not often vice versa. It is also worth noting that With age, UTIs in men become more common, Methodology Five mL of blood was withdrawn from the brachial vein by medical syringes and then divided into two parts. Then, 1 ml was placed in single-use test tubes containing 2 EDTA and kept in the refrigerator until the total and differential count of white blood cells were tested. The second section was for chemical and immunological tests. In sterile plain plastic tubes free of EDTA, the samples were transferred to the laboratory, the tubes were left for blood clotting, and the blood-containing tubes were placed in a centrifuge for 10 minutes at a speed of 3,000 rpm. The blood was separated by a series of blood serums using a sterile Pasteur pipette. Then distribute the serum into small test tubes of equal volumes (120 1). Several immunological tests were carried out, including Interlukin 1 and 2. Result effect of infection with urinary tract infections by Klebsiella bacteria on the concentration of IgM and IgG antibodies, where an increase in the concentration of IgM antibodies was observed in men more than its concentration in women where it reached a concentration of 13.1 compared to its concentration in infected women Urinary tract infections reached 12.9 compared to 1.5 in control, and we did not notice an increase in IgG antibody concentrations in either infected or control women or men. The decrease in the level of globulin IgG and IgM in patients with renal failure.
