[Spinal facioscapulo-peroneal (or facioscapulo-crural) muscular atrophy and facioscapulo-peroneal muscular dystrophy].

A report is presented of a patient with lesions of muscles of the face, shoulder girdle, wrists and shins. The clinical findings were similar to those noted in a patient with facioscapuloperoneal muscular dystrophy. An analysis of statistical and dynamic formulas of muscular lesions with regard to electromyographic findings made it possible to determine the neurogenic nature of the damage. It is shown that under clinical conditions, using the formula of muscular lesions, one may differentiate between facioscapuloperoneal muscular atrophy and facioscapuloperoneal myodystrophy and Stark-Keser's spinal scapuloperoneal atrophy. It is proposed that the term neurogenic "scapulotibial syndrome" should be used instead of "scapuloperoneal" one.

[Neurologic pathology in butterfly deformities of the body of the mid-thoracic vertebra (clinico-x-ray-anatomic observation)].

Results of the clinico-roentgenological observation of butterfly-like deformity of the middle dorsal vertebra body (a rare congenital anomaly) are presented. In the presence of an infection the patient developed a spinal pathology (lower central paraparesis, parahypesthesia, disturbances of the functions of pelvic organs). The neurological symptoms were found to be due to an adhesive process in the spinal meninges at the level of the deformed vertebra and the secondary compression-ischemic myelopathy. The treatment consisted in injecting prednisolone under the spinal meninges. The patient's roentgenograms were compared with a macerated museum preparation of dorsal vertebrae.

[Myopathy (terminology, clinical picture, and diagnosis)].

The paper deals with a description of the clinical picture and diagnosis of the main types of myodystrophies taking into account formes of muscular damages and a trend of generalization of a pathological process at the early phase of the disease. The clinical picture of endocrine myopathies was also studied. The authors revealed almost the same formula of muscular damages. Muscles of the pelvic girdle and femurs mainly suffered and to a lesser degree--muscles of the shoulder girdle and shoulders. According to the data of the clinical picture, histopathology and electromyography endocrinic myopathies are phenocopies of hereditary myodystrophies.

[Endocrine myopathies. Muscular lesions in thyrotoxicosis].

The authors studied 42 patients with endocrine myopathy. In thyrotoxic myopathy prevalent muscle lesions of the pelvic girdle and femur were found. EMG studies (with the aid of point electrodes), histological and histochemical studies of the muscles in patients with thyrotoxicosis indicate a primary muscular character of the atrophies. The report contains descriptions of pathomorphological and histochemical changes in the muscles in experimental thyrotoxic myopathy.

[Epizootological role of fleas in the Gorno-Altai natural plague focus (a review)].

Epizootological role of fleas in the Gorno-Altai natural plague focus (Sailugemsk focus) and numerous data on the flea viability are analyzed and generalized. Information concerning the flea natural infectivity with Yersinia pestis altaica is represented. Ecological peculiarities of some flea species parasitizing the main host, Mongolian pika Ochotona pallasi, and nature of their interrelations with Y. pestis are investigated. It is shown that the flea taxocenosis provides the permanent all year-round circulation of Y. pestis in the Gorno-Altai natural focus. Certain combinations of structural elements of the flea taxocenosis have a dominant significance in determination the circulation process at different phases of the annual epizootic cycle.
