[Subtotal Billroth-I gastric resection in cancer. The technic and the immediate results].

An analysis of literature data and results of operations on 150 patients with gastric cancer enabled the authors to make a conclusion that subtotal Billroth-I resection of the stomach with correct indications is more preferable as compared with the Billroth-II method. A contraindication for it is considered to be not technical problems of putting gastroduodenal anastomosis but spread of the tumor to the pylorus and duodenum. Based on an examination of preparations of the lymph nodes taken during extended lymphadenectomy performed in 34 patients the authors made a conclusion of its necessity in patients with not large primary tumors as well.

[Changes in the village foci of tick-borne relapsing fever in Uzbekistan over a 10-year period].

The paper presents the results of repeated investigations in the tick relapsing fever nidus (TRF) conducted after a ten-year interval in Gava settlement situated in the foothill area of the Namangan Province of Uzbekistan. A considerable deterioration in the habitat conditions of the vector, Ornithodoros papillipes Bir., due to the intensified anthropogenic effect, and decrease in its number have been noted. The distribution range of the tick (percent of infested farmsteads) in this case did not reduce. The infection rate of the vector's population with the tick relapsing fever agent decreased that points indirectly to a higher mortality of infected ticks under unfavourable conditions. Wavy course of morbidity with TRF during the period between investigations shows that changes that took place in the nidus were not uniform in their character and may have resulted to some extent from natural cycles. A similar character of anthropogenic effect on the populations of ticks in the settlement natural nidi suggests that the above changes are common to the nidi of this infection.
