[Pain in the lower part of the spine in spinal osteochondrosis: experience in using chondroprotective drugs].

AIM: To assess the response to chondroitin sulfate (structum) in low back pain (LBP) due to spinal osteochondrosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 30 patients (mean age 51.4 years) with a definite primary LBP took structum in a dose 1 g/day for 24 weeks. The diagnosis was made according to WHO recommendations (2000). The response was assessed with uniform international questionnaires and visual analogue scale. RESULTS: The treatment reduced pain syndrome and improved spinal function in 73.3% patients with LBP studied. CONCLUSION: It would be valid to include long-acting chondroprotective drugs in the program of LBP in spinal osteochondrosis.

[Movalis treatment of low back pain (LBP)].

AIM: To assess the response to nonsteroid antiinflammatory drug movalis in LBP syndrome. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Movalis was given in daily dose 15 mg for 7 days, then 7.5 mg daily for 14 days to 22 patients with LBS aged 34-56 years. All the patients had lumbosacral intervertebral osteochondrosis complicated with secondary radiculitis or myofascial syndrome. RESULTS: Movalis noticeably relieved pain syndrome. At the end of the treatment two-thirds of the patients were able to move. Tolerance of the drug was good, satisfactory and bad in 10, 7 and 1 patients, respectively. CONCLUSION: Movalis is effective in LBP syndrome.

[The phage sensitivity and lysogeny of cultures of Streptococcus pyogenes group A isolated in different streptococcal infections].

The collection of moderate phages of S. pyogenes, group A, had been created earlier. As shown in this work, group A streptococcal cultures isolated from patients with rheumatism, glomerulonephritis and tonsillitis exhibited different sensitivity to the phages of this collection: the cultures were lyzed by phages of groups II and III in rheumatism, group III in tonsillitis and group I in glomerulonephritis. The study revealed that lysogeny was widely spread among S. pyogenes strains isolated from patients with different diseases under study. Most frequently occurred among cultures isolated from tonsillitis patients. In this disease only phage-resistant streptococcal cultures proved to be lysogenic. Lysogeny was found among both phage-sensitive and phage-resistant cultures in rheumatism and especially in glomerulonephritis.
