Human parainfluenza viruses (hPIVs) are major contributors to respiratory tract infections in young children worldwide. Despite their global significance, genomic surveillance of hPIV1 and hPIV2 had not previously been conducted in Russia. This study aimed to develop a robust amplicon-based sequencing protocol for these viruses.

Methods: We conducted a prospective, randomized, open-labeled, single-center, phase I trial. The study was conducted in two stages: 5 volunteers in stage I and 25 volunteers in stage II.
The steady rise of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB), which renders standard therapy regimens ineffective, necessitates the development of innovative treatment approaches. Immunotherapeutic vaccines have the potential to effectively regulate the anti-TB immune response and enhance the efficacy of anti-TB treatment. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the potency of the mucosal vector vaccine TB/FLU-06E as part of a complex treatment regimen for drug-susceptible (DS) or drug-resistant (DR) tuberculosis in C57BL/6 mice.

Materials And Methods: The study included 180 patients with a laboratory-confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 which fully meet the criteria for inclusion, non-inclusion and exclusion, signed a voluntary informed consent to participate in a clinical trial.
Results: The efficacy, good tolerability and safety of the drug riamilovir in the treatment of COVID-19 have been established.
Aim: Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of riamilovir as a drug for the prevention of coronavirus infection (COVID-19) in adults who have constant contact with COVID-19 patients as a result of living together.
Materials And Methods: The study included 750 adult participants living with patients with confirmed polymerase chain reaction method COVID-19, who had a negative polymerase chain reaction result for the SARS-CoV-2 virus at the initial level, met the criteria for inclusion, non-inclusion and exclusion, and signed a voluntary informed consent to participate in a clinical trial.
Results: The efficacy, good tolerability and safety of the drug riamilovir for the prevention of COVID-19 infection among people who have come into contact with COVID-19 patients in a family focus of infection have been established.
