[Theories of the pathogenesis of polypous rhinosinusitis and the asthmatic triad].

Unlabelled: Polypous rhinosinusitis (PRS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, characterized by the formation and recurrent growth of polyps. Often, PRS is a manifestation of the most severe clinical symptom complex - the asthmatic triad (AT). AT is characterized by three main clinical manifestations: bronchial asthma (BA) itself, PRS, intolerance to acetylsalicylic acid, other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and NA.

Influence of the Substituent's Size in the Phosphinate Group on the Conformational Possibilities of Ferrocenylbisphosphinic Acids in the Design of Coordination Polymers and Metal-Organic Frameworks.

This paper illustrates how the size and type of substituent in the phosphinate group of ferrocenyl bisphosphinic acids can affect conformational possibilities and coordination packing. It also demonstrates that -phosphinate plays a key role in variational mobility, while Me- or Ph- substituents of the phosphinate group can only lead to 0D complexes or 1D coordination polymer. Overall, this paper provides valuable insights into the design and construction of coordination polymers based on ferrocene-contained linkers.

[Metastatic lesions of the adrenal glands. The experience of Endocrinology Research Center.].

Differentiation between benign, primary and secondary malignant tumors is a critical problem in the clinical treatment of adrenal tumors, especially in patients with isolated adrenal lesions. In most cases, the correct diagnosis can be established microscopically with standard staining with hematoxylin and eosin. However, there are cases when it is almost impossible to distinguish metastasis from primary adrenal cancer, so an accurate diagnosis requires an immunohistochemical examination.

CD19/CD22 targeting with cotransduced CAR T cells to prevent antigen-negative relapse after CAR T-cell therapy for B-cell ALL.

CD19-negative relapse is a leading cause of treatment failure after chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We investigated a CAR T-cell product targeting CD19 and CD22 generated by lentiviral cotransduction with vectors encoding our previously described fast-off rate CD19 CAR (AUTO1) combined with a novel CD22 CAR capable of effective signaling at low antigen density. Twelve patients with advanced B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia were treated (CARPALL [Immunotherapy with CD19/22 CAR Redirected T Cells for High Risk/Relapsed Paediatric CD19+ and/or CD22+ Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia] study, NCT02443831), a third of whom had failed prior licensed CAR therapy.

Conductive Mediators in Oxidation Based on Ferrocene Functionalized Phosphonium Ionic Liquids.

Herein, the synthesis of ferrocene-containing salts is presented. Acylation of ferrocene (Fc) according to the Friedel-Crafts method led to ω-bromoacyl ferrocenes. The ω-bromoacyl ferrocenes were subsequently introduced to quaternization reaction with tri--butyl phosphine, which resulted in phosphonium salts.

Genotypes, carbapenemase carriage, integron diversity and oprD alterations among carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Russia.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a serious opportunistic pathogen demonstrating a high level of resistance to many groups of antibiotics, including carbapenems. This study aimed to characterise the molecular epidemiology and prevalence of mobile genetic elements associated with resistance to carbapenems among P. aeruginosa (CRPA) clinical isolates.

Emergence of a ST307 clone carrying a novel insertion element MITEKpn1 in the mgrB gene among carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from Moscow, Russia.

Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) represents a major nosocomial pathogen with only a few antimicrobial agents, including colistin, remaining active. However, the emergence of colistin-resistant (Col-R) isolates is compromising the activity of colistin. In this study, a collection of 159 CRKP recovered from three hospitals in Moscow (Russian Federation) was examined.

Proposed Therapeutic Range of Treosulfan in Reduced Toxicity Pediatric Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Conditioning: Results From a Prospective Trial.

Treosulfan is given off-label in pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. This study investigated treosulfan's pharmacokinetics (PKs), efficacy, and safety in a prospective trial. Pediatric patients (n = 87) receiving treosulfan-fludarabine conditioning were followed for at least 1 year posttransplant.

Delaying haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in children with viral respiratory infections reduces transplant-related mortality.

Viral respiratory infections (VRIs) contribute to the morbidity and transplant-related mortality (TRM) after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and strategies to prevent and treat VRIs are warranted. We monitored VRIs before and after transplant in children undergoing allogeneic HSCT with nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPA) and assessed the impact on clinical outcome. Between 2007 and 2017, 585 children underwent 620 allogeneic HSCT procedures.

[Integron diversity in bla-carrying carbapenem-resistant clinical Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates].

The growing prevalence of metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa in nosocomial pathogen populations has been attributed to their clonal spread, and/or horizontal transfer of MBL determinants in mobile genetic elements, including integrons. To characterize the genetic background of the beta-lactamase VIM-2 encoding gene in the population of carbapenemresistant (Carba-R) P. aeruginosa clinical isolates.

Enhanced CAR T cell expansion and prolonged persistence in pediatric patients with ALL treated with a low-affinity CD19 CAR.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells targeting CD19 demonstrate unparalleled responses in relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), but toxicity, including cytokine-release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity, limits broader application. Moreover, 40-60% of patients relapse owing to poor CAR T cell persistence or emergence of CD19 clones. Some factors, including the choice of single-chain spacer and extracellular and costimulatory domains, have a profound effect on CAR T cell function and persistence.

Toxoplasmosis and mental disorders in the Russian Federation (with special reference to schizophrenia).

The association of latent toxoplasmosis with mental disorders in general and with schizophrenia in particular was noticed in the mid-1950s. In subsequent years, the role of Toxoplasma gondii was established based on its ability to survive for long periods of time in the nerve cells of the brain. The acute manifestations of the infection include psychopathic symptoms resembling those of schizophrenia.

Immune reconstitution following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using different stem cell sources.

: Adequate immune reconstitution post-HSCT is crucial for the success of transplantation, and can be affected by both patient- and transplant-related factors. : A systematic literature search in PubMed, Scopus, and abstracts of international congresses is performed to investigate immune recovery posttransplant. In this review, we discuss the pattern of immune recovery in the post-transplant period focusing on the impact of stem cell source (bone marrow, peripheral blood stem cells, and cord blood) on immune recovery and HSCT outcome.

The mean prevalence of PCV13 serotypes was 77.7% in 2010-2015 with a significant decline to 58.

[The comparison of methods for determination of colistin susceptibility in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.].

In recent years, because of carbapenemase spreading in Klebsiella pneumoniae strains, the antibiotic of reserve group, colistin, is increasingly prescribed. In vitro testing of colistin susceptibility in everyday practice has a number of difficulties due to the cationic properties of molecule and weak diffusion into agar. Therefore it is recommended to use the reference Broth Microdilution Method (BMD) for determination of the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) for colistin.
