ObjectivesHyperchloraemia is associated with poor clinical outcomes in sepsis patients; however, this association is not well studied for hypochloraemia. We investigated the prevalence of chloride imbalance and the association between hypochloraemia and 28-day mortality in ED patients with septic shock.MethodsA retrospective analysis of data from 11 multicentre EDs in the Republic of Korea prospectively collected from October 2015 to April 2018 was performed. Initial chloride levels were categorised as hypochloraemia, normochloraemia and hyperchloraemia, according to sodium chloride difference adjusted criteria. The primary outcome was 28-day mortality. A multivariate logistic regression model adjusting for age, sex, comorbidities, acid-base state, sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, lactate and albumin level was used to test the association between the three chloride categories and 28-day mortality.ResultsAmong 2037 enrolled patients, 394 (19.3%), 1582 (77.7%) and 61 (3.0%) patients had hypochloraemia, normochloraemia and hyperchloraemia, respectively. The unadjusted 28-day mortality rate in patients with hypochloraemia was 27.4% (95% CI, 23.1% to 32.1%), which was higher than in patients with normochloraemia (19.7%; 95% CI, 17.8% to 21.8%). Hypochloraemia was associated with an increase in the risk of 28-day mortality (adjusted OR (aOR), 1.36, 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.83) after adjusting for confounders. However, hyperchloraemia was not associated with 28-day mortality (aOR 1.35, 95% CI, 0.82 to 2.24).ConclusionHypochloraemia was more frequently observed than hyperchloraemia in ED patients with septic shock and it was associated with 28-day mortality.

Almost every year in Kazakhstan, cases of diseases of animals and people with anthrax are recorded. The incidence rate of people with anthrax in the period from 2000 to 2018 ranged from 0.01 to 0.24 per 100 thousand people. In the territory of the East Kazakhstan region, the incidence rate is higher than in the republic.Objective: a retrospective analysis of anthrax outbreaks in the East Kazakhstan region from 2000 to 2018.Methods: a retrospective analysis using statistical, cadastral data, archival funds, the results of participation in the investigation of outbreaks of infection.Results. Since 1938, cases of animal and human disease of anthrax have been recorded in East Kazakhstan. Infection of humans occurs during the slaughter of animals. In Zharma, Urjar, and Ayagozskiy areas most of all are anthrax foci of soil. In 67 % of cases, outbreaks of anthrax were recorded in these areas.Conclusion. The relative incidence rate of anthrax in people in East Kazakhstan is from 0.07 to 0.27, since 2001 it is higher than the republican indicator.In the East Kazakhstan region from 1997 to 2018, 37 people fell ill with anthrax. The form of the disease is skin, in 8.1 % secondary sepsis. In the remaining patients, the diseases were mild (70.3 %), ended in recovery. The source of human infection is mainly cattle. The isolated strains of B. anthracis have typical properties, they are included in cluster A1a, A3b (MLVA-8). The strains isolated in 2016 are similar to the strains isolated in the Almaty region (MLVA-25). Grouped with a number of European, Asian and African strains from France, Germany, Italy, Tajikistan, Pakistan, Korea and Namibia. The presence of a significant number of soil foci of anthrax in the territory of the East Kazakhstan region, not fully the implementation of veterinary and sanitary preventive measures leads to an exacerbation of the situation for anthrax.

Background: In the last 2 years, some changes have occurred in the structure of emergencies at the prehospital stage in the Republic of Moldova, being largely influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic. Material and methods: Retrospective analysis of the Prehospital Emergency Medical Service (PEMS) Request Sheets of the National Centre of Prehospital Emergency Medicine (NCPEM) of the Republic of Moldova for the years 2019-2020. Results: According to the nosological profile in 2020 at the prehospital stage, respiratory emergencies were on the first place with 23% of the 761.416 of total number of requests. On the second – cardiovascular (20.6%), on the third – neurological (13.3%), infectious – 3.1%. In 2019, on the first place – cardiovascular with 22.3% of the 845.572 of total number of requests, followed by respiratory – 19.3%, neurological – 13.6%, infectious – 2.2%. In 2020, on the first place were respiratory emergencies, which compared to 2019 increased practically by 4% and the infectious emergencies by almost 1%. The number of endotracheal intubation procedures and medical-assisted transportations practically doubled in y.2020 compared to y.2019. Conclusions: All these changes: increased respiratory and infectious emergencies, intubation procedures, and assisted-medical transportations, have occurred exeptionally due to COVID-19 infection.

Epizootological and epidemiological situation on anthrax in the Republic was estimated. GIS-technologies were used for drawing up a data base of the incidence in humans and animals and cadastre of areas permanently infected with anthrax. A connection between soil and climatic conditions and persistence of anthrax was traced. It has been established, that currently the incidence of anthrax is sporadic in character and depends for the most part on timely carrying out preventive measures.
