[The clinico-epidemiological aspects of tuberculosis occurring in medical personnel in pneumophthisiology units in Bucharest (1992-1996)].

The authors studied 38 TB cases diagnosed between 1992 and 1996 among the 1092 employees (medical and nonmedical) of the pneumophthisiology departments in Bucharest (hospitals and ambulatory units). Most cases had pulmonary involvement (76.3%), 85.7% were bacteriologically tested for bK. Among them, 66.7% were confirmed. The therapeutic results evaluated after 1 year, showed just 1 failure. The medium annual risk of tuberculosis at the PF personnel is corresponding to an incidence of 700/100,000 (6.36 times higher than TB incidence in general population). This conclusions calls for emergency measures for protecting and compensating this personnel.

[The clinico-epidemiological aspects of the tuberculosis incidence in the Gypsy population in the 4th and 5th districts of the city of Bucharest].

The study analyzes 126 gypsy patients, aged over 15, registered with tuberculosis over 2 years (1996-1997) in two districts of Bucharest (IV and V). The risk of the disease was twice larger in men than women, the age group most affected was 30-49. For lung tuberculosis, bacteriological confirmation was 85%. 83% of bacteriological confirmed cases were smear positive, suggesting the high contagious risk at the time of the discovery. Only 48% favorable results after chemotherapy are partially explained by the low level of education for health in this population, high rate of associated diseases (66.7%) etc. Being a group with high risk for tuberculosis, the gypsy population needs targeted measures for discovering the disease and prophylaxis.

[The prevalence of smoking in physicians in Romania].

An inquiry upon the prevalence of the habit of smoking in doctors in Romania, performed in a group of 1136 doctors (p = 0.05) revealed a prevalence of 43.2%, 50.1% in men and 38.6% in women. Smoking is more frequent in group age 30-49 (47.2%). More than half of the smoking doctors smoke between 10 and 20 cigarettes a day. 45.7% of the resident doctors are smokers. Taking into account the large interface with the public, the medical staff can play an important part in the activity of reducing or stopping smoking.
