Khunkheeva Z.Y., Mironova L.V., Fortunatova A.V., Allenov A.V., Borzov V.P., Khomenko T.V., Solodkaya N.S., Abbasova E.I., Tarasenko T.T., Kosenok E.V., Balakhonov S.V.

Abstract

A retrospective epidemiological analysis of the incidence of acute enteric infections caused by halophilic microorganisms (V. parahaemolyticus, V. alginolyticus) since 1997 up to 2017 year was carried out in the Primorye Territory. Uneven morbidity levels were established for years of observation with increase in the summer-autumn period, the food-borne transmission was dominant for the acute enteric infection; and mainly people in the 20-30 age group were involved in the epidemic process. Halophilic vibrios are found in surface watercourse of the Vladivostok, Nakhodka, Partizansky and Khasansky districts in recreation zones, which creates an additional risk of the infection process development, infections caused by halophilic vibrios among the local population.

TOPICAL ISSUES OF IMPROVEMENT OF MEDICAL CARE FOR PATIENTS WITH INFECTIOUS PATHOLOGY IN THE REPUBLIC OF TATARSTAN

Kravchenko I.E., Galieva A.M., Gataullin M.R., Vafin A.Y.

Abstract

Purpose. To develop ways to improve the regional model of providing medical care to infectious patients in the Republic of Tatarstan on the basis of the rational use of available resources and the introduction of modern medical technologies. Results and discussion. Over the analyzed observation period of 13 years (2005-2017), there was a significant reduction in the resource provision of the infectious diseases service of the Republic of Tatarstan, including the material and technical base, human resources (infectious disease doctors) and the cost of medical care infectious patients. During the same period, the primary infectious morbidity (FM) of the population tended to decrease (the rate of decline was 17.0%). The significant impact of the resource provision of the infectious service (CID, beds, infectious disease physicians) on the indicators of the IZ population (p <0.05) has been established. Effective ways to improve the ways of improving of specialized medical care for infectious patients are presented - the creation of the Republican Advisory Center for Infectious Pathology and reception and diagnostic departments based on infectious hospitals. Conclusions. The introduction of new structural and functional models in the work of the infectious service will improve the availability and quality of medical care for infectious patients throughout the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan in the context of existing resource support.

DRUGS CONTAINING GLYCYRRHIZIC ACID IN COMPLEX THERAPY FOR PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS

Riasenskii D.S., Grishkina N.A., Aseev A.V.

Abstract

The effectiveness of etiotropic chemotherapy is largely determined by the tolerability o the TB drugs (TBD) and the severity of unwanted side effects. It is known about the immunopathological effect of TBD, which can also be attributed to the undesirable effects of anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy. Changes in the structure and composition of mononuclear membranes reflect their functional activity. Secondary disorganization of the lipid bilayer due to the action of TBD is an important element in the development of immunosuppressive conditions in pulmonary tuberculosis and requires specific correction. The paper has the results of a survey of 308 patients with tuberculosis included. The comparison group consisted of 36 healthy volunteers. The membrane destruction coefficient and cholesterol-phospholipid ratio were used in order to assess the state of peripheral blood mononuclear cells and the degree of structural disorganization of their membranes. The prescription of preparations containing glycyrrhizic acid is pathogenetically substantiated and allows improving the state of the membranes of mononuclear cells, thereby reducing the undesirable membrane-toxic effect of first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs, There was an increase in etiotropic therapy intensity on the basis of abacilation at the end of the intensive phase of the main course of chemotherapy from 61% to 72.4% when using Licorice Root, and to 81.3% when using Fosfogliv® in patients with focal and infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis.

ETIOLOGY OF SKIN LEISHMANIOSIS IN OF ENDEMIC REGIONS OF UZBEKISTAN ON THE EXAMPLE OF DZHIZAK REGION

Suvonkulov U.T., Achilova O.D., Muratov T.I., Tai S.Y., Myunhee Y., Ju Y.K., Turicin V.S.

Abstract

Taking into account the high prevalence of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Uzbekistan, as well as the tendency of increase in the incidence of this disease over the past 5 years, important and necessary is to determine the species composition of leishmania, as well as their vectors and natural reservoirs. According to the results of molecular-biological diagnostics, carried out in present study, in samples taken from ulcers of patients from Jizzakh region, which previously considered endemic for anthraponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis, was detected L.mayor, the causative agent of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis.

BIOSAFETY OF THE FAR EAST REGION OF RUSSIA: EPIDEMIOLOGICAL AND EPIZOOTIC TRENDS

Kuznetsova N.A., Andryukov B.G.

Abstract

Biological safety acquires a national scale, affecting a wide range of issues, including the fundamentals of the sustainable economic development of the state and, in particular, of the Russian Far East. This study was conducted as part of the implementation of the Integrated Basic Research Program «Far East», adopted by the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (FEB RAS) for 2018-2020. Objective: analysis of the main epidemiological and epizootic trends in the countries of the Asia-Pacific region and the assessment of the concept of biological safety as the basis for the sustainable development of the Far Eastern region of the Russian Federation. Increasing the level of biosafety and protection from the threats of dangerous infectious diseases in the DFO can be achieved, among other things, by forming regional programs of basic and applied research on current problems of epidemiology, medical microbiology, genetics and molecular biology of bacteria.

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL AND CLINICAL-PATHOGENETIC ASPECTS OF DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF ACUTE INTESTINAL INFECTIONS IN ADULTS

Shakhmardanov M.Z., Nikiforov V.V., Tomilin Y.N., Burova S.V.

Abstract

The incidence of acute intestinal infections in the Russian Federation remains high and does not tend to decrease. The General susceptibility of the population, the variety of pathogens of infectious diseases accompanied by diarrhea syndrome, necessitates the improvement of clinical diagnosis and differential diagnosis in the treatment of patients with diarrhea at the primary stage of medical care. The article presents the etiological and epidemiological aspects of the most common in the Russian Federation acute intestinal infectious diseases accompanied by diarrhea syndrome: food toxicoinfections, viral gastroenteritis, salmonellosis, shigellosis, campylobacteriosis, pseudomembranous colitis. The sources of infection and pathways of pathogens are characterized. The pathogenesis of the main types of diarrhea caused by various pathogens of intestinal infections is described. It is shown that the action of enterotoxins of pathogens that activate adenylate cyclase contributes to the development of secretory type of diarrhea; the place of localization of the pathological process is the small intestine. Pathogens exhibiting high invasive activity contribute to the development of inflammatory type of diarrhea; the pathological process is localized in the colon. With direct damage to enterocytes of the small intestine by pathogens of viral gastroenteritis, an osmotic type of diarrhea is formed, associated with a violation of the digesting and absorption function of the small intestine. Presented distinctive clinical criteria of three types of diarrhea: color, consistency of the stool, the presence of pathological impurities in it. The differences of abdominal syndrome in the analyzed nosology: the nature and localization of abdominal pain. The presented differential diagnostic signs of diarrhea and abdominal syndrome allow for early diagnosis of infectious disease before laboratory confirmation and contribute to the improvement of the algorithm of medical care in acute intestinal infections accompanied by diarrhea syndrome.

LABORATORY BIOMARKERS OF SEPSIS

Saifullin R.F., Sinyavkin D.O.

Abstract

Sepsis - one of the leading cause of death on the planet, mortality rate in septic shock can be up to 50%. Timely treatment start and outcomes of disease are directly depend from early and precise diagnostics of sepsis. For the present, the “golden standart” in diagnosing sepsis is growing blood culture from patient’s’ samples. However, taking into account necessarity of fast descision making about starting intensive threatment, speed of blood culture test for quick descision about starting theratment is insufficient. At the same time, modern laboratory medicine have wide spectre of different biomarkers, which can be applied in diagnosing sepsis. In literature review discussed main biomarkers, used in sepsis diagnostics.
