1 package. 3 Results To assess the ability to serologically respond to specific influenza antigens, the subjects of both groups (hemodialyzed and healthy controls) were stratified into responders (R) (at least a four-fold increase in anti-HA titer) and non-responders (NR) to the three influenza strains tested. There was one basic difference between the hemodialyzed patients and healthy controls, which was that nearly all controls had an increase in anti-HA antibodies against A/H1N1 as opposed to the patients of who only two thirds responded (Table 1).

Each sample taken from a patient and sent to the laboratory included information about the patient’s age, gender, influenza vaccination, the anti-viral medicines taken, the onset of symptoms, and the date of material collection. 4 %). Other pathogens responsible for respiratory tract infections, in addition to bacteria and viruses, were fungi and parasites.
