Microbial eczema among the various clinical forms of eczema in the structure of incidence ranks is on the second position after the true one. Adults get sick more often than children. The pathogenesis of microbial eczema is based on misfunctions in the immune status and microbial sensitization of the body Due to bacterial background, as well as dysbiosis in the microbiome. The clinical picture of the disease is characterized by asymmetric localization of rashes on the limbs in the form of single plaques. The affected skin is reddish, squamous, slightly infiltrated. Outside the main foci, papulovesicular and pustular lesions, crusts are observed. Rash is not not always accompanied by itching. Microbial eczema was of a limited nature, manifested by coin-shaped foci, dot weeping, crusts. We observed a patient of 15 years before admission to the hospital was ill for 8 months. At the same time, during the last three months, the pathological process on her skin existed acutely without any dynamics. The occurrence of a rash is not associated with anything. Multiple efflorescence were located throughout the skin, on the scalp, ears, in the ear region, on the face, neck, torso, upper and lower limbs, buttocks, accompanied by severe itching. The inflammatory pathological process was represented by excoriations, wet spots, erosions, crusts and erythematous-squamous foci of various shapes and sizes. Dermographism pink. Repeated outpatient treatment brought temporary improvement. Due to the lack of therapeutic effect in the last 3 months, the patient was hospitalized in the branch Kolomensky. A comprehensive clinical and laboratory examination diagnosed disseminated subacute microbial eczema. Against the background of adequate therapy, the anti-inflammatory pathological process was completely resolved. Recommendations are given to maintain the achieved therapeutic effect.

The primary factor causing periodontal damage is plaque bacteria. The etiological structure of infectious processes in the last decade has changed significantly, due to the constant evolution of microbes and the involvement of opportunistic microbes in the pathological process, which can act as commensals in the normal microflora and manifest their pathogenicity with a decrease in the body's immune status. Inflammatory processes in the oral cavity are sometimes an endogenous infection caused by the resident flora of not only the oral cavity, but also other ecosystems of the body.

Background: Papular mucinosis is a variety of mucinosis characterized by excessive production of mucin by fibroblasts and deposition in the dermis. It manifests itself with fleshy papules or plaques in different sites of the body and taking different clinical morphological cutaneous features. Objective: The objective is to report and evaluate the different clinical and histopathological features of the disease in Iraqi patients. Patients and Methods: This is a case series and a clinical descriptive study in which ten patients with papular mucinosis were reported during the period from 2012 through 2019. The age ranged from 4 to 56 years, with seven females and three males. Clinical evaluation regarding histories of the disease and examination was carried out. General investigation was done and skin biopsy for histopathological assessment was conducted. Results: Nine patients were adults, with their age ranging from 20 to 56 years, a mean of around 35 years, and only one 4-year-old child. It is a disease with a female predominance, as observed in 7 (70%) females. The common sites of involvement were the face but the rash may extend to affect the neck and upper arms. The rash appeared in the form of skin-colored or red fleshy papules and plaques or in diffuse erythematous orange peel-like forms. The rash was asymptomatic in most patients. The pathology of the disease clarified the diffuse deposition of mucin in the dermis, as was demonstrated with H&E staining. Conclusion: Papular mucinosis is a rare disease characterized by mucin deposition in the skin affecting mostly adult females. The face is commonly involved together with other areas such as the neck and upper arms, but the trunk and lower limbs are spared. It manifests itself with different clinical morphological cutaneous features. Papular granuloma annulare must be considered as an important differential diagnosis in all cases of papular mucinosis.

The purpose of our research was to test the therapeutic efficacy of the acaricide «Simparica®» in combination with the biostimulator «Catosal» and the hepatoprotector «Tioprotectin» for demodicosis in dogs in the conditions of veterinary clinics in the Kamianets-Podilskyi, Ukraine. The study has been performed on dogs of different genders, ages and breeds that had a generalized form of demodicosis (affected at least 6 areas on the body of animals), to test the effectiveness of this drug in different treatment schemes. Acarological studies of scrapings from the skin of experimental animals for the presence of live or dead mites Demodex canis or their eggs have been carried out by the vital method according to D.O. Pryselkova. As a result of the conducted researches the choice of acaricidal drugs and development of complex therapeutic measures for demodicosis of dogs has been experimentally substantiated. The drug «Simparica®» has proved to be quite effective against demodicosis of dogs, even with a single use. The dependence of the effectiveness of the use of prolonged acaricide «Simparica®» on clinical forms of demodicosis has been shown. The absolute therapeutic effect of acaricide is obtained in the scaly form of demodicosis. However, in pustular and mixed clinical forms of demodicosis, its effectiveness decreased to 71.4 and 57.1%, respectively. In combination with the drug of pathogenetic therapy «Catosal» for pustular and mixed forms of demodicosis, the therapeutic efficacy of the drug «Simparica®» increases to 85.7%. When added to the scheme of hepatoprotector “Thioprotectin”, it is possible to achieve 100% therapeutic effect in pustular forms of demodicosis. However, in severe mixed form of demodicosis, the effectiveness was not absolute and was only 85.7%. In case of generalized demodicosis of dogs, regardless of clinical forms, it is recommended to use the acaricide «Simparica®» in combination with the drug «Catosal» and in the combination of «Catosal» and «Thioprotectin».

Background and Importance: Spondylodiscitis is an inflammatory disease of the body of one or more vertebrae and intervertebral disc. The fungal etiology of this disease is rare, particularly in patients without immunodeficiency. Delay in diagnosis and treatment of this disease can lead to complications and even death. Case Presentation: A 63-year-old diabetic female patient, who had a history of spinal surgery and complaining radicular lumbar pain in both lower limbs with a probable diagnosis of spondylodiscitis, underwent partial L2 and complete L3 and L4 corpectomy and fusion. As a result of pathology from tissue biopsy specimen, Aspergillus fungi were observed. There was no evidence of immunodeficiency in the patient. The patient was treated with Itraconazole 100 mg twice a day for two months. Pain, neurological symptom, and laboratory tests improved. Conclusion: The debridement surgery coupled with antifungal drugs can lead to the best therapeutic results.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a widely represented species of bacteria possessing of a pathogenic potential. This infectious agent is causing wound infections, fibrotic cystitis, fibrosing pneumonia, bacterial sepsis, etc. The microorganism is highly resistant to antiseptics, disinfectants, immune system responses of the body. The responses of a quorum sense of this kind of bacteria ensure the inclusion of many pathogenicity factors. The analysis of the scientific literature made it possible to formulate four questions concerning the role of biofilms for the adaptation of P. aeruginosa to adverse environmental factors: Is another person appears to be predominantly of a source an etiological agent or the source of P. aeruginosa infection in the environment? Does the formation of biofilms influence on the antibiotic resistance? How the antagonistic activity of microorganisms is realized in biofilm form? What is the main function of biofilms in the functioning of bacteria? A hypothesis has been put forward the effect of biofilms on the increase of antibiotic resistance of bacteria and, in particular, P. aeruginosa to be secondary in charcter. It is more likely a biofilmboth to fulfill the function of storing nutrients and provide topical competition in the face of food scarcity. In connection with the incompatibility of the molecular radii of most antibiotics and pores in biofilm, biofilm is doubtful to be capable of performing a barrier function for protecting against antibiotics. However, with respect to antibodies and immunocompetent cells, the barrier function is beyond doubt. The biofilm is more likely to fulfill the function of storing nutrients and providing topical competition in conditions of scarcity of food resources.

The purpose of the research: the study of the efficacy of the preparations for veterinary use "Inspector Quadro C" and "Inspector Quadro K" against ecto- and endoparasitoses of dogs and cats. Materials and methods. Studies were conducted on spontaneously infected dogs and cats of different sexes, age, weight and breed. The diagnosis of infection with ectoparasites was made based on the clinical picture and laboratory methods of investigation (microscopy of scrapings taken from ectoparasitized skin areas, examination of the coat for fleas, lice, worms, ixodids). Infection with helminths was established by detecting eggs of helminths in faeces of animals by the method of Füleleborn and mature segments of cestodes. Preparations were applied to the animals by drip application on dry undamaged skin in places inaccessible to licking in a dose of 0.1-0.4 ml per 1 kg of body weight. The results were statistically processed. Results and discussion. "Inspector Quadro S" and "Inspector Quadro K" showed 100% efficacy at sarcoptosis in dogs, notoedrosis in cats, otodectosis in dogs and cats, ixodidoses and entomoses. "Inspector Quadro C" showed a high efficiency (92.3%) at demodecosis in dogs. However, single mites were found in one dog. 100% efficacy of "Inspector Quadro C" and "Inspector Quadro K" has been established against intestinal nematodes and cestodes in dogs and cats. Negative effects of drugs on the body of animals have not been revealed.

Posture is commonly perceived as the relationship between the segments of the human body upright. Certain parts of the body such as the cephalic extremity, neck, torso, upper and lower limbs are involved in the final posture of the body. Musculoskeletal instabilities and reduced postural control lead to the installation of nonstructural posture deviations in all 3 anatomical planes. When we talk about the sagittal plane, it was concluded that there are 4 main types of posture deviation: hyperlordotic posture, kyphotic posture, rectitude and "sway-back" posture.Pilates method has become in the last decade a much more popular formof exercise used in rehabilitation. The Pilates method is frequently prescribed to people with low back pain due to their orientation on the stabilizing muscles of the pelvis. Pilates exercise is thus theorized to help reactivate the muscles and, by doingso, increases lumbar support, reduces pain, and improves body alignment.
