[The dynamics of detecting group-A streptococci in an infectious disease clinic].

The study revealed that the isolation rate of group A streptococci in scarlet fever patients at the time of hospitalization did not exceed 68%. The isolation rate of these streptococci was greatly influenced by antibacterial therapy carried out before hospitalization. Under clinical conditions with intensive penicillin therapy group A streptococci were eliminated from the larynx on days 3-4. In 13% of children repeated streptococcal infection was observed 0.5-3 months after discharge from hospital.

[The rapid diagnosis of acute streptococcal infection in children].

The present work deals with trials of the method of rapid diagnosis of streptococcal infection, carried out in children's infectious hospital, with the use of a new diagnostic kit. The proposed diagnosticum has proved to be highly sensitive and specific in scarlet fever and tonsillitis. The sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosticum depend on the duration of the disease, prehospital treatment and the quality of the bacteriological analysis.

[Transplacental measles immunity in infants in the 1st year of life].

A total of 187 parturients (66 with a history of measles and 121 immunized with live measles vaccine, or LMV, in childhood) and their 187 newborn infants, as well as 195 children aged up to 1 year, were examined. Antimeasles antibodies in blood sera were detected in the hemagglutination inhibition test. In all mothers with a history of measles and in their newborn infants antimeasles antibodies in different titers were detected. In mothers, formerly immunized with LMV, antimeasles antibodies were absent in 5.8% and in their newborn infants, in 6.6% of the examinees. Among children aged up to 1 year, born of formerly immunized mothers, more rapid disappearance of passive antimeasles immunity was observed. In cases of contact with measles, the serological examinations of all children born of mothers immunized with LMV should be carried out in order to protect seronegative children by passive or active immunization.
