Estimation of erythrocyte parameters of general blood analysis in patients with SARS-CoV-2 -associated pneumonia.

The study of the features and dynamics of the erythrocyte parameters of general blood analysis in patients with cardiovascular diseases who underwent SARS-CoV-2 associated pneumonia is of great practical importance. That was a prospective study. The study included 106 patients with SARS-CoV-2-associated pneumonia.

[Nonspecific parameters of the immune inflammatory response as a link in the pathogenesis of remodeling of the vascular wall and destruction of bone tissue in women with arterial hypertension in postmenopausal women.].

Recently, they increasingly began to pay attention to the role of a nonspecific immune-inflammatory vascular response as a link in general pathogenetic mechanisms with a change in the elastic properties of arteries and phenomena of destructive bone changes, which at the subclinical level is of great importance for the prevention of the development of socially significant diseases. A total of 104 patients were examined (mean age 57.45 years), which were divided into three groups.

[The quill mite Syringophilopsis fringilla (Fritsch) (Acari: Trombidiformes: Syringophilidae): The structure of receptor organs providing feeding of the parasite inside the feather quill].

The structure of sensory organs situated on palps and inside the cheliceral stylet of the quill mite Sringophilopsis fringilla (Fritsch, 1958) was examined in scanning and transmitting electron microscopes. Eight sensilla of 3 types were revealed on palptarsus, including two contact chemo-mechanosensory sensilla, a single distant chemosensory (probably olfactory) sensillum, and 5 tactile mechanosensitive sensilla. All other sensilla situated on basas parts of the palp and on the outer surface of gnathosoma are represented by tactile mechanoreceptors.

Horizontal migrations of the tick Ixodes pavlovskyi toward a pedestrian walkway in an urban biotope (Tomsk, Western Siberia).

The 4-year-long field experiment with ticks collected in the wild and immediately marked and released was performed in April-July 2012-2015 in a city park of Tomsk (Western Siberia). A total of 1712 males and females of the tick Ixodes pavlovskyi, vector of many dangerous diseases, were examined. The analysis of the data obtained had demonstrated that I.

[QUESTING BEHAVIOR OF HARD TICKS (IXODIDAE) IN ONTOGENESIS].

Literary and own data on questing behavior of larvae, nymphs, and adults in main genera of hard ticks are analyzed. Evolutionary patterns of this behavior and the role of different life stages in this process are discussed.
