The effectiveness of the immunomodulator Polymuramil (PM) was determined in the treatment of 40 patients with severe chronic generalized periodontitis based on the dynamics of the values of periodontal indices and the content of periodontal pathogens in the periodontal pockets. Patients of the main group (20 people) were treated with professional hygiene (PGO) in combination with daily intramuscular PM for 5 days at a dose of 200 mcg. Patients of the control group (20 people) were performed only PGO. The effectiveness of treatment was evaluated based on the dynamics of the clinical indices of Muehlemann and PMA and the presence or absence of major periodontal pathogens in the periodontal pockets. Results: in patients of the main group, the phenomena of periodontal inflammation and the main periodontal pathogens were eliminated in a shorter time and to a greater extent in comparison with patients of the control group

The purpose of the research is to improve the efficiency of restorative treatment of patients with chronic generalized periodontitis based on the inclusion in therapeutic schemes of innovative mineral bishophytic complexes ― gel "Bishophytic" and rinser "Polymineral." Materials and methods. The study involved 116 patients at the age of 35 to 73 years old suffering from periodontal pathology (mild and moderate chronic generalized periodontitis). They were distributed by simple randomization into 3 groups: the main group included 43 people who received standard treatment in accordance with Russian clinical recommendations for the treatment of periodontitis, 45 minutes later the patients were prescribed some applications with 10% dental gel "Bishophytic" on the gum, in addition, the patients were recommended to use a rinser "Polymineral" for 6 months; the group of comparison included39 people who received standard treatment and gum applications with 10% "Bishophytic" dental gel; the control group) included 38 people who received only standard treatment. Results. Inclusion of mineral bishophytic complexes in treatment programs of patients with CGP contributes to significant reduction of inflammatory activity of periodontal tissues: 61.3% (p 0.01) had the improvement of hygienic and plaque indices in comparison with initial data; 54.6% (р 0,01) had the improvement after additional use of only gum applications with "Bishophytic" gel; the improvement was 52.2% (р 0.01) after basic drug therapy. Thus, the improvement of enzymatic processes was by 30.0% (p 0.01), 26.9% (p 0.01) and 7.8%; reduction of cytokine activity by 62.8% (p0.01), 61.1% (p 0.01) and 40%; the improvement of dental health by 84.0% (p 0.01), 80.7% (p 0.01) and 74.5% (p 0.01) at рkg-ог 0,05 and рkg-ог0,01. Conclusion. Inclusion of innovative mineral bishophytic complexes (gel "Bishophytic" and rinser "Polymineral") in treatment programs of patients with chronic generalized periodontitis contributes to optimization of therapeutic measures: clinical effectiveness in the main group was 93.0%; after usage of dental gel "Bishophytic" (group of comparison) it was 89.7% and after basic therapy (control group) 81.6%.

Goal. Improving the scheme of treatment and prevention of periodontal diseases in workers of the woodworking industry of Chernivtsi region, who in the process of professional activity have long-term contact with unfavorable factors of the production environment. Materials and methods. 70 workers of the woodworking industry with diagnosed chronic generalized periodontitis of the I degree were treated (35 people – the main group (A); 35 people – comparison group (B)), age – from 25 to 45 years. To compare the results of laboratory studies, an additional survey of 25 healthy individuals of the same age with an intact periodontium were conducted. They formed the control group (C). Clinical examination of patients was performed according to standart methods: subjective (complaints, medical history, life history) and objective (examination, periodontal indices, determination of the level of gingival attachment). Laboratory methods of research included determination of urease and lysozyme activity in saliva, degree of dysbiosis of oral cavity. As maintenance therapy, patients of the main group were prescribed the proposed composition DEPE. Results. After the treatment, a significant improvement in the hygienic status of patients in both groups was observed, but difference between groups A and B in the indicators of oral hygiene after treatment was no statistically significant (pA2–B2 > 0.05). There was a significant improvement in periodontal indices after treatment in patients of both groups (PMA index according to C. Parma, bleeding index according to Muhlemann in Cowell I. modification, Russell periodontal index, PSR-test), but the indicators in patients of the main group were significantly better – pA2–B2 < 0.05. In patients of the main group (A) the level of attachment loss decreased by 1.83 times, comparison group (B) – by 1.71 times. The difference in levels of attachment loss after treatment between groups A and B is statistically significant (pA2–B2 < 0.05). The activity of the enzyme urease in patients of the main group (A) and comparison group (B) after treatment was significantly reduced (pA1–A2 < 0.001, pB1–B2 < 0.001), but only in the main group it reached the level in the control group (C) (pA2–C > 0.05). The level of lysozyme after treatment was significantly increased in patients of both observation groups (pA1–A2 < 0.001, pB1–B2 < 0.001), and reached the level of lysozyme in patients of the control group (C) (pA2–C > 0.05, pB2–C > 0.05). The degree of oral dysbiosis in patients of the main group (A) was significantly reduced by 5.43 times (pA1–A2 < 0.001), and its difference from the degree of dysbiosis in patients of the control group (C) is statistically insignificant (pA2–C > 0.05 ). The degree of oral dysbiosis in patients of the comparison group (B) was significantly reduced by 3.04 times (pB1–B2 < 0.001), but still remained significantly different from oral dysbiosis in patients of the control group (C) (pB2–C < 0.05). Conclusion. The proposed pharmacological composition DEPE is an effective antiseptic solution and can be used in the phase of maintenance therapy to improve the treatment and prevention of periodontal disease in workers of woodworking industry. Key words: decamethoxine, propolis, ethonium, generalized periodontitis, woodworking industry.

Background. Acetabular fractures are severe intra-articular injuries that require anatomical reposition and early function, but they are often complicated by degenerative changes in both the acetabulum and the femoral head, leading to the development of post-traumatic coxarthrosis. The purpose was to study the clinical effectiveness of surgical treatment and postoperative management of patients using autologous platelet-rich plasma in patients with fractures of the acetabulum. Materials and methods. Twenty-eight patients with acetabular fractures of various degrees were operated at the City Emergency Hospital of Zaporizhzhia and the Municipal Clinical Hospital No 9 from 2017 to 2019. Gender composition: 22 men (78.57 %), 6 women (21.43 %), average age 46.64 ± 2.21 years, with a 95% confidence interval 42.31–50.96. Nineteen victims (67.86 %) had road traffic injuries, 7 (25 %) domestic injuries, and 2 (7.14 %) had industrial injuries. Results. In the main group of patients treated with platelet-rich plasma, radiologically visible adhesion of the injured area after 8 weeks occurred in 10 people (83.4 %). In one person (8.3 %), the adhesion occurred after 12, and in another (8.3 %) — 16 weeks after surgery. In the control group, adhesions at 8th week were registered in 14 patients (60.87 %), in 8 (34.78 %) — at 16th week. Given the general recovery of the body in the main group, the activation and social adaptation of patients occurred 2–3 weeks earlier. The assessment was performed radiologically and by the criteria of functional recovery.

BackgroundIntestinal colonization by MDR/XDR gram-negative bacteria leads to an increased risk of subsequent bloodstream infections (BSI) in patients receiving chemotherapy as a treatment for hematologic malignancies.ObjectivesThe objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of oral colistin in eradicating the intestinal carriage of MDR/XDR Gram-negative bacteria in patients with hematological malignancies.MethodsIn a tertiary hematology center adult patients with intestinal colonization by MDR/XDR Gram-negative bacteria were included in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) during a period from November 2016 to October 2017. Patients were treated with oral colistin for 14 days or observed with the primary outcome set as a decolonization on day 21 post-treatment. Secondary outcomes included treatment safety and changes in MICs of isolated microorganisms. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02966457.ResultsShort-time positive effect (61.3% vs 32.3%; OR 3.32; 95% CI 1.17–9.44; p=0.0241) was demonstrated on the day 14 of colistin treatment, without any statistical difference on day 21 post-treatment. The incidence of BSI in decolonization group was lower in the first 30 days after the intervention (3.2% vs 12.9%), but overall in the 90-day observation period it did not show any advantages comparing to control group (log-rank test; p=0.4721). No serious adverse effects or increase in resistance to colistin was observed.ConclusionsThis study suggests that in hematological patients the strategy of selective intestinal decolonization by colistin may be beneficial to decrease the rate of MDR/XDR Gram-negative intestinal colonization and the risk of BSI in the short-term period, having no long-term sustainable effects.

Animals (122 mice) were infected each with eighty cercariae of S. mansoni and subsequently challenged intravenously eight weeks later with the following gram-negative organisms. S. typhi, E. coli, Klebsiella-enterobacter species, Proteus mirabilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Enumeration of bacteria in the liver, spleen and blood and S. mansoni from the portal sistem was performed from one to four weeks later in infected animals. A significant difference between infection produced by S. typhi and other gram negative organisms was observed: S. typhi persisted longer in the spleen and liver and could be recovered from S. mansoni worms up to three weeks following bacterial infection. Other gram negative bacteria disappeared from S. mansoni worms after two weeks of initial challenge. Additional animals (51 mice) infected with S. mansoni were given S. typhi, E. coli or sterile saline. After two weeks, animals were sacrificed and the recovery rate of worms from the portal system, and the mesenteric and hepatic oogram were determined. in animals infected with E. coli a significant decrease in the number of worms was observed compared to the saline control group; thirty worms were recovered in the control group compared to two worms in e. coli infected animals. In addition, the patterns of oviposition was significantly different in these latter animals suggesting complete inhibition of this process. Following S. typhi infection the difference in recovery of worms and pattern of oviposition was minimal. These findings suggest a difference in the interaction of various gram negative bacteria and S. mansoni and are consistent with the clinical observation of prolonged salmonella bacteremia in patients with schistosomiasis.

The variability of clinical course and frequent exacerbations of chronic rhinosinusitis make it necessary to improve conservative therapy. According to current literature and EPOS 2020 data the main trends are aimed to improve drug treatment, while physiotherapy is rarely applied. The aim of the study was to increase clinical effectiveness of chronic rhinosinusitis exacerbations treatment by using low-frequency ultrasonic cavitation. Clinical examination and treatment of 57 patients with exacerbation of chronic rhinosinusitis and formation of two groups was carried out. The main group (34 patients), in addition to the conventional treatment, received a course of low-frequency ultrasonic cavitation irrigation of the nasal cavity (frequency – 29 kHz, amplitude – 25 µm), and the control group (23 patients) received a course of standard therapy in accordance with clinical recommendations. The treatment resulted in improvement of clinical symptoms and reduced disease recurrence rates in 31 (91,2%) patients in the main group and 16 (69,4%) patients in the control group. A satisfactory result was obtained in 3 (8,8%) patients in the main group and 6 (27,6%) in the control group. An unsatisfactory result was noted in one case in the control group.

The aim: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of treatment-and-prophylactic complex in patients addicted to tobacco with chronic generalized periodontitis with chronic hyperacid gastritis. Materials and methods: 68 patients (men and women) aged 25–44 years were examined. They were distributed into two groups: the main group — 48 patients addicted to tobacco with chronic generalized 1 degree periodontitis and chronic hyperacid gastritis, associated with Helicobacter pylori, the control group — 20 healthy individuals without bad habits. Patients of the main group were distributed at random into 2 subgroups (1.1, 1.2) depending on the chosen therapy. The patients of the subgroup 1.1 received the basic therapy and the developed treatment and prophylactic complex, the subgroup 1.2 received the basic therapy and the ultraphonophoresis procedures with placebo. Assessment of the effectiveness of therapy was carried out by determining hygienic index OHI-S and periodontal indices (PI, PMA index and Muhlemann bleeding index (MBI)). Results: The usage of the treatment-and-prophylactic complex resulted in improvement of the hygienic index OHI-S and periodontal indices (PI, PMA index and MBI) at the immediate and late observation period. Conclusions: Results of the study confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed treatment-and-prophylactic complex in therapy of chronic generalized 1 degree periodontitis in patients addicted to tobacco smoking with chronic hyperacid gastritis.

Abstract Background: Foot ulcers complications in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients are one of the significant medical problems and an economic burden. The aim of this study is to assessment role of phagocytic neutrophil cells and its relationship with the incidence of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) infection of diabetic patients. A total of 60 venipuncture blood samples collected from diabetes mellitus, diabetic foot ulcer patients and healthy persons as control group. 20 swabs from the DFU patients were collected and processed for culture and susceptibility test after the ulcers classified according to Wagner’s grades system. Phagocytic cells activity test was performed to determine the efficiency of phagocytic neutrophil cells in diabetic patients. Results: Gram positive bacteria were the most prevalent in the DFU patients 57.1% with statistical significant relationship between the type of bacteria and grades of Wagner’s classification followed by Gram negative bacteria in high grades of ulcers. Wagner’s ulcers grade 1 and 2 were the most prevalence in DFU patients 30%. There was a weak negative correlation between the efficiency of phagocytic neutrophil cells activity and grade ulcers classified (r = -0.323). Amikacin and ciprofloxacin were the most effective antibiotics against 90.5% and 81% of the bacterial isolates respectively, whereas ampicillin, cefepime and cefadroxil were less effective antibiotics against the bacterial isolates.Conclusion: When the grade of ulcer increased, the bacterial resistance to antibiotics increased, and this was emphasis the correlation with prevalent of Gram negative bacteria in the high grade of ulcers with high resistance of antibiotics. In contrast, the grade of ulcer increased, the efficiency of phagocytic neutrophil cells decreased.

Skin Flora

The bacterial flora of the skin from five anatomical sites on 10 leukemia patients, 10 patients with malignant melanoma, and a control group of 10 medical personnel was examined quantitatively and qualitatively. This was done to determine whether malignant disease results in changes in skin flora and to establish carrier rates of gram-negative bacteria on the skin of personnel in hospital environments. Gram-negative bacteria were isolated more frequently (74 isolates from 100 cultures) from the skin of leukemia patients than from either patients with malignant melanoma (8 isolates from 100 cultures) or the medical personnel (9 isolates from 100 cultures). Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated exclusively from leukemia patients. Relative proportions of gram-negative bacteria in total populations were determined. The axilla was the only site with a uniformly high proportion of gram-negative bacteria. From all other sites cultured, gram-negative populations were low (1 to 5 bacteria/cm2 of skin), although a high proportion of gram-negative populations occurred randomly throughout all subject groups. It was concluded that leukemia patients tend to carry gram-negative bacteria on the skin. The factors permitting colonization of skin by gram-negative bacteria are discussed.

Abstract Objective To assess whether bacterial colonisation in a power-driven water flosser can be prevented. Materials and methods Twenty-four patients undergoing supportive periodontal treatment used 2 power-driven water flossers [Sonicare AirFloss (SAF), AirFloss Ultra (SAFU)] for 12 weeks each as follows: (a) with bottled water (BW); (b) with BW and cleaning the device extra-orally twice per week with chlorhexidine gluconate or (c) essential-oil-based (EO) mouth-rinse; (d) with EO only. Water-jet samples were taken after 6 and 12 weeks with the used nozzle and after exchanging to a brand-new nozzle. After 12 weeks, all devices underwent an intensive cleaning procedure. Samples were analysed by PCR-based method for cariogenic and periodontal pathogens and culture for staphylococci, aerobe gram-negative bacteria, and Candida sp. Results Contamination of SAF/SAFU with Streptococcus mutans was found in > 95% of the samples; periodontal pathogens and aerobe gram-negative bacteria were detected in 19–56% of the samples, while Staphylococcus aureus and Candida sp. were identified only in few samples. Contamination rate was basically unaffected by time-point, device, or way of use. Further, exchanging the nozzle did not prevent transmission of a contaminated water-jet, but the intensive cleaning reduced most of the pathogens significantly, except of S. mutans. Conclusion Neither a specific way of use nor exchanging the nozzle prevented bacterial colonisation and transmission of biofilm components via the water-jet of SAF/SAFU. Clinical relevance Bacterial colonisation in a power-driven water flosser seems impossible to prevent; to restrict the risk of cross-contamination within a household, one device per person should be recommended.
