[The diagnosis of acute pneumonia in respiratory viral infections].

Data are reported of 582 case records of patients with acute pneumonia of different influenza epidemic periods, results of a study of 175 lethal cases due to acute pneumonia, that complicated influenza in adults as well as experimental studies on reproduction of para-influenzal-staphylococcal, influenzal-Klebsiella and Proteus-influenzal infections. The study allowed to find out the causes of diagnostic difficulties, to establish the features of the course of acute pneumonia in patients with respiratory viral diseases to disclose the mechanisms of development of lung changes and make propositions facilitating early clinical diagnosis on the prehospital period.

[Highly active interferon in the combined treatment of patients with meningoencephalitis].

High-active interferon was used in the complex treatment of 49 patients with nervous system diseases of viral-bacterial etiology. A control group of 28 similar patients were also analyzed. A positive clinical effect was observed in early use of interferon. The clinical course of the disease was milder, the duration of clinical symptoms reduced, healing of the CSF was enhanced, the development of protracted forms of the disease was preventable, lethality reduced 2.9 times with interferon in the complex treatment of these patients.

[The characteristics of the clinical course of hemorrhagic meningoencephalitis].

A study is presented of 132 patients with hemorrhagic meningoencephalitis of viral, bacterial and viral-bacterial origin. Before admission to the clinic meningoencephalitis was diagnosed in 46.2% of patients. The cause of hypodiagnosis was underestimation of the clinical manifestations of the disease and anamnesis findings at the prehospital period. In 15.9% of patients the disease began with psychotic disorders. Lethality was 23.48%.

Acute Disease↗

[The development of protracted pneumonias in patients with a history of influenza and acute respiratory diseases].

A study is presented of 582 patients with acute viral-bacterial pneumonia in those with a history of influenza and acute respiratory disease (ARD). Protracted course of the disease was observed in 121 (20.8%) and 461 (79.2%) the course of pneumonia was acute. It is shown that the formation of protracted of acute pneumonia in patients with influenza and ARD is furthered by several factors: age, foci of chronic infection, a history of inflammation, increased level of circulating immune complexes, late hospitalization and inadequate therapy. Experiments on Syrian hamsters with induced parainfluenzal infection showed that mixed viral-bacterial infection is more severe than monoinfection.

Acute Disease↗

[A clinical and experimental study of longatsef].

Data are reported of the results of clinical trials of the therapeutic efficacy of longaceph--a drug of the new generation of cephalosporins with a long period of half-decay--in acute pneumonia complicating influenza in 42 patients. The sensitivity of 120 microbial strains to longaceph was also studied. It was established that cephalosporin possesses a high efficacy in diseases caused by gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms. A high degree of sensitivity to longaceph was observed in pneumococci biogenous and Streptococcus viridans, Staphylococcus aureus and epidermidis, klebsiellae and escherichiae. A new property of longaceph was found, namely, its capacity to stimulate the formation of endogenous interferon.

[Use of interferon inducers in treating viral diseases].

The results obtained in the experimental and clinical study of the preparations of mephenamine acid and levamisole with respect to their interferonogenic and interferon-stimulating action and their therapeutic effectiveness in influenza and virus hepatitis are presented. The study has revealed that mephenamine acid, along with its capacity for stimulating the processes of interferon formation in the body, produces a pronounced curative effect, prevents the development of postinfluenza complications much more effectively than levamisole and remantadin and accelerates the processes of reparation in virus hepatitis.
