[Species structure and staphylococci bioprofile characteristics--ausative agents of perinatal infectious-inflammation pathology in children of Orenburg].

Aim: Analysis of taxonomic structure and bioprofile of staphylcocci--causative agents of cutaneous and ophthalmic forms of perinatal infectious-inflammation pathology (IIP) in Orenburg neonates.

Materials And Methods: Bacteriologic study in 308 neonates with clinical signs of cutaneous and ophthalmic forms of perinatal IIP was carried out with isolation of microorganisms from lesions and their species (genus) identification by generally accepted methods. The presence of hemolytic, anti-lysozyme, activity, ability to form biofilms, resistance to antimicrobial cationic peptides of human leukocytes (intercid) and thrombocytes (trombodefensins), sensitivity to antibiotics were determined in the isolated staphylococci strains.

[Iron metabolism in elderly patients with ulcer disease].

We examined 72 elderly patients with ulcer disease at the age from 55 till 79 years. We studied an iron metabolism (haemoglobin, serum iron, serum ferritin) and its correlation with a clinical current of ulcer disease. It is established that the anemic syndrome is the frequent companion of ulcer disease in elderly and old patients.

[Taxonomic characterization and antibiotic resistance of pathogens of perinatal infectious inflammatory pathology in infants in Orenburg].

The materials on regional features of the nosologic structure, taxonomic spectrum and antibiotic resistance of the pathogens of perinatal infectious inflammatory pathology (IIP) in infants in Orenburg are presented. From 2002 to 2005 the average level of IIP of 19.0 cases per 1000 living new borns and the dominance of skin inflammatory diseases (vesiculopustulosis in particular) in the nosologic structure among the other forms of IIP (including conjunctivitis and pneumonia) were observed.

[Clinical immunological characteristics of the pathogenesis of catarrhal gingivitis (Communication 1)].

In order to evaluate the relationship between cellular and humoral immunity, washings from the gingival sulcus were analyzed in 15 patients with catarrhal gingivitis and 15 subjects with intact periodontium aged 19-22 years. The results indicate a close relationship between local immunity and humoral and cellular defense factors. It seems that decreased IgA level, complement component, and increased activities of C-reactive protein and antistreptolysin-O are the key factors in the development of chronic gingivitis.

[The use of fatty emulsions in the postoperative period in cardiosurgical patients with kidney failure].

The data are presented on the use of fatty emulsions for parenteral nutrition of 68 cardiosurgical patients with renal failure in the postoperative period. It has been established that intravenous administration of fatty emulsions ensures up to 50% of an overall daily calories uptake, with the infusate volume restricted considerably, helps stabilize energy and nitrogen body balance and reduces the risk of complications associated with hyperosmolality and hyperglycemia.
