Authors: J H Olwin, H V Ratajczak, Casa R V
Year: 1997
Summary: Clinical study of 25 patients with herpetic infections treated with autologous transfer of 10 ml of blood (antecubital vein → gluteus). It brings favorable response in 100% of cases treated within 7 weeks of the debut. No significant adverse effects. The study concludes that the results justify further rigorous investigation.

Magazine: UNIPAR Saúde, Umuarama, v.19(2), 101-107 (May/August)
Summary: Study on 10 participants (5 men and 5 women) first subjected to autohemotherapy (10 ml venous blood reinjected into the gluteus). It brings up monocytes in 9 out of 10 and increase of various immunoglobulins (IgM, IgG, IgA, IgE) in most subjects. It concludes that autohemotherapy can be a factor in increasing the body’s immunity.
