[The clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of diphtheria in adults].

Diphtheria morbidity among adult population of Moscow is growing. The tests of different modes and schemes of heterogeneous antidiphtheria serum administration have found out that the highest efficacy of serotherapy was achieved with a single intravenous dose. Another treatment of diphtheria is hemosorption. Widely used in present-day clinical practice hemosorbents provide adequate elimination of the toxin from plasma. The authors analyse the present situation in clinical symptoms, complications, lethality of diphtheria basing on the data provided by S. P. Botkin's Hospital.

[Toxoplasmosis and the epidemiological status of the population. II. The determination of the intensity of toxoplasmosis transmission].

The possibility of using the primary epidemiological unit, force of infection, as a criterion for evaluating the intensity of the transfer of toxoplasmosis among the population at the focus of infection has been established. The comparison of data obtained in different regions indicates that the level of the force of infection is, in general, low, but it can vary within a wide range. The problem of the suitability of using the force of infection as a criterion for dividing territories into zones with respect to toxoplasmosis is discussed.
