The theme of this Bachelor work is nonmalignant leukocyte disorders.

This work is divided into

three chapters and subchapters. The first chapter presents a characterization of leukocytes, their
morphology, as well as their physiology. The second chapter describes both quantitative and
qualitative disorders of the leukocyte system. Given the fact that leukocytes, particularly their
antibodies, are related to the whole activities of the immune system, this chapter addresses
autoimmune disorders, laboratory diagnosis of allergies and possible causes of acquired
autoimmune disorders, as well as the treatment and prevention of these diseases. As the number
of allergy sufferers worldwide is growing each year, this work includes statistics of allergy sufferers
in one of the towns of Eastern Slovakia.
The aim of the practical part, the third chapter, consists in processing information of allergies in a
selected group of patients. Children between 1-10 years are more allergic than adults. As for
gender, allergies are more common among women. There are also particular allergies based on
the analysis of specific IgE antibodies in children and adults. While children have mostly problems
with food allergens, adults are more concerned with mites, according to our survey sample.
