Invasive Candidiasis in Adult Patients with COVID-19: Results of a Multicenter Study in St. Petersburg, Russia.

We studied the risk factors, etiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment outcomes of COVID-19-associated invasive candidiasis (COVID-IC) in adult patients admitted to six medical facilities in St. Petersburg. (November 2020-December 2022).

[Prognostic value of the ultrasonic determination of the degree of interstitial edema in patients with intermediate ejection fraction of the left ventricle after treating acute decompensation of heart failure].

Aim To study ultrasonic characteristics of lung tissue in patients with heart failure with left ventricular (LV) mid-range ejection fraction (HFmEF) and predictive value of these characteristics after reversing acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).Material and methods Ultrasonic characteristics of lung tissue were studied by prospective observation in 71 patients (mean age, 65.2±3.

[Model of Two-Years Forecasting of the Anti-Existent Patients With Acute Decompensation of Heart Failure on the Background of the Intermediate Fraction of Left Ventricle].

Objective: Build a prognostic model using clinical, laboratory, and instrumental data to predict mortality in patients with midrange left ventricular ejection fraction (mrLVEF) within two years after hospitalization for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).

Materials And Methods: The study included 121 patients hospitalized for ADHF with mrLVEF ranging from 40% to 49.9% (91 males and 30 females, mean age 64.

[Characteristic of infectious status in patients with acutely decompencated chronic heart failure and its impact on annual prognosis].

Aim: The assessment of infectious status in patients with acutely decompensated chronic heart faiure (ADCHF) without evident signs of acute inflammatory stress and its impact on the 1 year prognosis.

Material And Methods: Totally, 65 patients with ADCHF of ischemic origin investigated, age 67,3±2,3 y.o.

[Clinical case of thromboembolism of small branches of the pulmonary artery on the background of the single ventricle id type with the opening of the сava-caval collaterals].

A three-compartment heart - a severe congenital defect, can develop after genetic mutation or teratogenic influence on fetus at early stages of embryogenesis. According to the literary data, the survival of such patients without surgery is 6-7 %. This publication demonstrates clinical case of the patient who has single ventricle of the heart and lived up to 56 without surgery.
