Vaccination coverage in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis, inflammatory bowel diseases, and healthy peers: Cross-sectional electronic survey data.

Background: Patients with immune-mediated diseases, such as juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of developing infections, due to disease-related immune dysfunction and applying of immunosuppressive drugs.

Aim: To evaluate vaccine coverage in patients with IBD and JIA, and compare it with healthy children.

Methods: In the cross-sectional study we included the data from a questionnaire survey of 190 Legal representatives of children with JIA ( = 81), IBD ( = 51), and healthy children (HC, = 58).

[The impact of BMI on the course of the acute SARS-COV-2 infection and the risks that emerge during the first year after the hospital discharge. Subanalysis evidence of the AKTIV and AKTIV 2 registries].

Background: There is enough evidence of the negative impact of excess weight on the formation and progression of res piratory pathology. Given the continuing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, it is relevant to determine the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and the clinical features of the novel coronavirus infection (NCI).

Aim: To study the effect of BMI on the course of the acute SARS-COV-2 infection and the post-covid period.

[ACTIV SARS-CoV-2 registry (Analysis of Chronic Non-infectious Diseases Dynamics After COVID-19 Infection in Adult Patients). Assessment of impact of combined original comorbid diseases in patients with COVID-19 on the prognosis].

Aim: Study the impact of various combinations of comorbid original diseases in patients infected with COVID-19 later on the disease progression and outcomes of the new coronavirus infection.

Materials And Methods: The ACTIV registry was created on the Eurasian Association of Therapists initiative. 5,808 patients have been included in the registry: men and women with COVID-19 treated at hospital or at home.

Analysis of influence of background therapy for comorbidities in the period before infection on the risk of the lethal COVID outcome. Data from the international ACTIV SARS-CoV-2 registry («Analysis of chronic non-infectious diseases dynamics after COVID-19 infection in adult patients SARS-CoV-2»).

Aim      To study the effect of regular drug therapy for cardiovascular and other diseases preceding the COVID-19 infection on severity and outcome of COVID-19 based on data of the ACTIVE (Analysis of dynamics of Comorbidities in paTIents who surVived SARS-CoV-2 infEction) registry.Material and methods  The ACTIVE registry was created at the initiative of the Eurasian Association of Therapists. The registry includes 5 808 male and female patients diagnosed with COVID-19 treated in a hospital or at home with a due protection of patients' privacy (data of nasal and throat smears; antibody titer; typical CT imaging features).

[From uncertainty to an exact number: Developing a method to estimate the fitness of a clonal species with poly variant ontogeny].

The task to estimate the fitness of a clonal plant with polyvariant ontogeny reduces to compiling a life cycle graph, constructing and calibrating the corresponding matrix model of the discrete-structured population, and calculating the dominant eigenvalue (λ1) of the model matrix. We demonstrate a solution to this task with a sample of Calamagrostis epigeios , a perennial long-rhizome grass propagating vegetatively, and data on the age-stage structure of its local population. A traditional technique of successive censuses fixing the age-stage status of all individuals on a permanent sample plot (SP) provides for calculating frequencies of ontogenetic transitions directly from the data, but leaves uncertain the status-specific reproduction rates as the recruit parents are unknown (“reproductive uncertainty”).
