The subgenus Bodilus Mulsant Rey, 1870 of the genus Aphodius Helwig, 1798 sensu lato comprises 30 species in the Palearctic fauna (Frolov 2001, 2002, Dellacasa et al. 2016 [treated as genus Bodilus]). Frolov (2001) reviewed the species of this subgenus from Russia and adjacent countries and suggested that the monotypic subgenus Paramelinopterus Rakovič, 1984 shares the main diagnostic characters of Bodilus. Frolov (2001) was unable, however, to examine the type species of Paramelinopterus, A. longipennis Rakovič, 1984, at that time. Král (2016) suggested that A. (Bodilus) inylchekensis Frolov, 2001 is a junior synonym of A. longipennis. Recently we have re-examined all the types as well as the additional material accumulated in the museums and can confirm that A. inylchekensis is a distinct species, but A. insperatus Petrovitz, 1967 and A. longipennis cannot be reliably separated by the morphological characters. In the present contribution we illustrate the major diagnostic characters of the species based on the type specimens and also provide a distribution map of the known localities of the species.

Objectives: HIV-positive people have increased risk of infection-related malignancies (IRMs) and infection-unrelated malignancies (IURMs). The aim of the study was to determine the impact of aging on future IRM and IURM incidence.

Methods: People enrolled in EuroSIDA and followed from the latest of the first visit or 1 January 2001 until the last visit or death were included in the study.

Background: The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a protective effect of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) on the development of clinical events in patients with ongoing severe immunosuppression.

Methods: A total of 3,780 patients from the EuroSIDA study under follow-up after 2001 with a current CD4(+) T-cell count ≤200 cells/mm(3) were stratified into five groups: group 1, viral load (VL)<50 copies/ml on cART; group 2, VL 50-99,999 copies/ml on cART; group 3, VL 50-99,999 copies/ml off cART; group 4, VL≥100,000 copies/ml on cART; and group 5, VL≥100,000 copies/ml off cART. Poisson regression was used to identify the risk of (non-fatal or fatal) AIDS- and non-AIDS-related events considered together (AIDS/non-AIDS) or separately as AIDS or non-AIDS events within each group.

Presented in the paper is experience gained with the use of a new Ukrainian drug amyzon in treating angina. Administration of amyzon in adult patients with angina was noted to make for a quicker eradication of the infectious toxicosis syndrome and manifestations of local inflammation, normalization of the peripheral blood picture and indices for immunologic homeostasis. With amyzon complications develop less frequently.

[137-Cs levels in biliary and urinary tract organs of inhabitants of the Vitebsky Region who died in 2000-2001].

Vopr Onkol

May 2004

Research Clinical Radiation Medicine and Endocrinology, Regional Office for Postmortem Examination, State Medical University, Vitebsk, Belarus.

Elevated Cs levels in the liver, gall bladder, kidney and urinary bladder were identified by gamma-spectral assay in the victims of common and oncological pathologies who died in Vitebsk Region in 2000-2001. The nuclide concentrations were relatively higher in gall and urinary bladder tissues in both groups. No differences in Cs uptake were established.
