Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome as a complication of bacterial meningitis.

Background: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a clinical-radiological syndrome, which is presented with headache, seizures, altered mental consciousness, and visual disturbances, and is characterized by white matter vasogenic edema, predominantly affecting the posterior occipital and parietal lobes of the brain. This clinical syndrome is increasingly recognized due to the improvement and availability of brain imaging and, more specifically, magnetic resonance imaging.

Case Report: We report the case of an otherwise healthy 20-year-old female who presented with fever, headache, and generalized arthralgia, raising the suspicion of serotype B meningitis, which was later complicated by PRES.

The hematobiochemical status of Wistar rat line under the bovine leukemia virus experimental infection.

Aim: This study aimed to elucidate the ability of the bovine leukemia virus (BLV) to integrate into cells of heterologous organisms, in particular, Wistar rats, and examine the manifestations of the pathological process that could be seen in them.

Materials And Methods: Wistar rats - were divided into three groups. The first group (I) was fed milk of intact cows, the second (II) - milk of BLV-infected cows, and the third (III) - milk of cows, clinically BLV sick.

[Milk raw materials from retrovirus infected cows: questions of safety and quality of produced products].

The questions of quality control and safety of milk raw materials has always been relevant for the dairy industry. One of the most common cattle infection is bovine leukemia (causative agent - BLV), which often occurs in conjunction with a closely related infection -bovine immunodeficiency (causative agent - BIV). These retroviruses are considered to be species-specific, so the key issue for the dairy industry is the nutritional and raw value of milk of infected cows (without clinical signs).

[Investigation of the thermal resistance of Mycobacteria tuberculosis].

Incubation by means of the growth-promoting factor VCG of autoclaved culture broth of M. bovis 8 and tuberculins on the nutrient medium VCG gave rise to microorganisms that could partially restore acid resistance. The isolates reacted with antiserum to M.

[Drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis].

Drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis was followed up within a period of 1986 to 1989. There was a tendency to stabilization of resistance to streptomycin (42 per cent), tubazid (45.2 per cent) and ethionamide (up.

[Post-injection neuritis of the sciatic nerve].

Post-injection neurites are usually observed in cases where the proper technique of drug administration has not been adhered to, with children being the most liable group to develop them. Most frequently post-injection neurites develop following the administration of antibiotics into the gluteal area. The clinical picture is characterized by the predominance of motor over sensory disturbances.
