[The clinical course of the immediate and late convalescent periods in viral meningoencephalitis].

The frequency and severity of residual phenomena after viral meningoencephalitis is to large degree determined by the premorbid background, etiology, severity of the acute period of the disease hospitalization terms. Among the residual phenomena functional disorders are more frequent while organic are rare and regress within 1.5-2 years. Complete cure of the patients should therefore be 1.5-2 years after discharge from the hospital.

[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.

Acute Disease↗

[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↗

[Lesions of the nervous system in Haemophilus influenzae infection in adults].

The authors depict 13 cases of CNS injuries in the form of meningities, meningoencephalitis and encephalitis in adults, provoked by Haemophilus influenzae. Provide the clinical, laboratory and instrumental data obtained during examination of the patients in the acute disease stage and during follow-up studies lasting up to 5 years. Rare strains of Haemophilus influenzae, serotypes "c" and "d", were detected in the CSF. Concomitant virus infection was confirmed in seven patients. It is desirable that chloramphenicol, erythromycin or ampicillin be used in such cases. Patients who suffered influenzal meningitis should undergo follow-up studies.
