[Cervical dysplasia].

General characteristics of nucleoli in all layers of stratified squamous epithelium were studied in 234 cases of dysplasia and intraepithelial cancer of cervix uteri. Cytomorphometric measurements were carried out. The nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio was determined. Certain regularities pertinent to neoplastic process progression and aging were established. 2,375 patients with moderate dysplasia and 1,625 patients with marked dysplasia underwent clinical examination. Various schemes of treatment and long-term results were evaluated. Rationale for all-round examination and individually-tailored schemes of treatment is discussed. The data on the end results in 150 untreated cases of dysplasia are presented. The importance of detection and treatment of dysplasia in the control of cervical cancer is suggested.

[Immunoserodiagnosis of acute Streptococcus pneumoniae and Chlamydia pneumoniae infections in the period of epidemic rise of non-hospital pneumonia in children in St. Petersburg, 1998-2001].

The dynamics of the antibody formation to S. pneumoniae and C. pneumoniae in children during the epidemic outbreak of non-hospital pneumonia in St. Petersburg in 1998-2001 was studied. For the first time the inhibiting influence of acute C. pneumoniae infection on the synthesis of antibodies to S. pneumoniae in acute mixed infection was established. The prolonged (up to days 29-39 of the disease) circulation of IgM and IgG antibodies in acute chlamydial infection, as well as the prevalence of the primary infectious process, were detected.

[Etiology of the epidemic outbreak of community-acquired pneumonia in children in St. Petersburg].

In September-December 1998 the epidemic rise of outhospital pneumonia (EP) among children was observed in St. Petersburg, which led to a twofold increase in morbidity rate this year. The study of the etiology of EP during the period of 1998-2001 confirmed the prime role of Streptococcus pneumoniae (74.5%) and, for the first time in Russia, revealed the epidemic outbreak of acute chlamydiosis (Chlamydia pneumoniae), diagnosed in 67.3% of children, the maximum occurrence (87.5%) in 1998 with only 19% of the patients having the disease in the form of monoinfection. The prevalence of S. pneumoniae and C. pneumoniae in the etiology of EP and more severe course of mixed infection suggested that these infective agents played a leading role in the epidemic outbreak of acute respiratory infections in St. Petersburg.
