[Morphological criteria of chronic opisthorchiasis treatment].

Morphological examinations of the liver in chronic opisthorchiasis have both diagnostic and prognostic importance. Significant lowering of the number of cells of the portal tract inflammatory infiltrate per area unit (1 mmI), decreased number of neutrophilic and eosinophilic leukocytes, elevated count of monocytes are not only morphological markers of successful dehelminthization but they also reflect objective improvement of the liver state this being an absolute criterion of effective therapy.

[Surveillance of acute flaccid paralysis in Belarus].

The ten-years experience of acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) surveillance in Belarus has been summarized. Among 456 AFP cases reported from 1996 to 2005, 11 were classified as vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis (VAPP), 445--as non-polio AFP. The risk of VAPP for the period 1996-2001 was 1 case per 745,000 used doses of oral poliovaccine (OPV).

[Administration of ehf-therapy for rehabilitation of locomotor diseases].

Noise EHF radiation under low-frequency (10 Hz) modulation both in monovariant and in combination with spinal tractions promotes regression of neuro-orthopedic disorders. Good effects were achieved due to improvement of zonal hemodynamics, conditions of functioning of the neuromuscular and locomotor system of the spine and limbs, favourable shifts in biochemical and autonomic status of patients with lumbar osteochondrosis and osteoarthrosis.

[The immunological efficacy of one, two and three inoculations against diphtheria in adults].

The outbreak of diphtheria in the Republic of Belarus developed in the presence of a sharp deficiency of immunity among the population aged 35 years and over. In connection with a higher initial immunity level resulting from vaccination made in one injection the minimum antibody level (> or = 0.01 I.

[The effect of electromagnetic radiation in the millimeter range on the development of disorders in the liver induced by ether anesthesia (experimental research)].

Rat experiments with ether anaesthesia (EA) indicate that EA induces enlargement of hepatic sinusoids, stasis and perivascular edema of the triad vessels and other changes in the liver. Right hypochondrium exposure to electromagnetic waves (4.76-5.
