[Electrocardiographic changes in leptospirosis].

The study involved 239 ECGs recorded in acute period of various leptospirosis forms. In 86.2% of cases there were changes evidencing impairment of neuromuscular system and atrial (76.6%) or ventricular (61.9%) conduction. The above cardiac manifestations arise early, have peculiar characteristic features. The discussion covers their patho- and morphogenesis, frequency of detection, necessary time-course ECG control over leptospirosis patients and convalescents.

[Etiological structure and clinical epidemiological characteristics of Leptospira infection in Rostov Province based on data from therapeutic institutions from 1960 to 1983].

Changes in communal conditions, in economy, as well as in ecology and fauna, which took place in Rostov Province during the last decade (1973-1983) determined shifts in the etiological structure of Leptospira infection and in its course. The study revealed an increase in morbidity caused by L. icterohaemorrhagiae (up to 61%) and L. hebdomadis (up to 22%) with a simultaneous decrease in the isolation rate of L. grippotyphosa and L. pomona (up to 2-3%). In most cases (77%) the diseases caused by leptospires of different serogroups were found to take an icteric course accompanied by the development of hepatorenal insufficiency (46%). The similarity of clinical manifestations in different etiological forms of Leptospira infection was determined by common pathogenetic and pathophysiological features characteristic of the development of the leptospiral infectious process.
