Speech is the most critical component of the neuropsychic development of a child. Over the past decade, an increase in the prevalence of delayed speech development (DSD) in children has been recorded worldwide. Timely diagnosis and correction of DSD at the early stages can lead to good results and minor violations of speech development in the future. Objective. To execute a comparative analysis of risk factors and the leading causes of the DSD development in children of early and preschool age in the Belgorod region from 2019 to 2021. Materials and methods. The analysis of 165 medical records of children examined and treated at the Belgorod Medical Center for the period from 2019 to 2021 was carried out. Results. DSD was found to be more common in children aged 1.5 to 3 years (79.5%), much less common in children over the age of 4 years (6.6%).DSD in boys (69.7%) occurs more than two times more common than girls (30.9%). The average age of mothers of DSD children ranged from 30 to 35 years. More than 50% of all DSD children are premature babies. All mothers of the examined patients had a complicated pregnancy and delivery in their history. Children living in the city (62.5%) had a 25% higher probability of DSD occurrence than children from rural areas (37.5%). According to the results of the study, lesions of the visual organs, residual and perinatal lesions of the central nervous system were the most common forms of pathology in DSD children. Conclusion. It is necessary to improve the early diagnosis and prevention of the DSD in children. Early detection of deviations in the child’s speech development will allow timely drug therapy and comprehensive systematic corrective work.

Abstract Introduction. The results of epidemiological and socio-medical studies of specific age groups in Poland indicate that tooth decay and periodontal diseases still pose a significant health problem. Aim. The aim of the study was the assessment of the reasons for reporting to the dental office and the assessment of oral health in children aged 0-6 years. Material and methods. The study comprised 45 patients in the preschool age (2-6 years old), who for the first time reported in 2015 to the dental office, which offers treatment under the framework of an agreement with the National Health Fund or for a fee. Gender, age, the place of residence and the reason for the reporting to the dentist were analyzed. The place of residence was a village, a town of less than 200 thousand inhabitants or the city of more than 200 thousand inhabitants. The reason for reporting to the dental office was a check-up visit, toothache or loss of filling. Dental condition was assessed by calculating the dmf index. The results were statistically analyzed. Results. Among the surveyed, there were no children younger than 2-year-olds. It was found that the dmf index was ranging in an individual patient from 0 to 20, in half of them the dmf index value was ≤ 7, while in all of the patients the average dmf index was 6.42. The percentage of respondents with dmf=0 was significantly higher among children living in the city than children living in rural areas. Conclusion. It is necessary to intensify educational activities concerning oral health of children, addressed to pregnant women, parents and people from the living environmental of a little child. This applies in particular to promoting early reporting to the first ever, the adaptive visit of a child to the dentist, frequent and regular check-up visits, during which, regardless of the examination, prophylaxis or treatment activities can be carried out if necessary.

Due to the low detectability of atrial fibrillation (AF), more attention is paid to AF screening. Screening procedure requires new diagnostic devices that allow immediate assessment of heart activity. One such portable device is the MyDyagnostick 1001R. The aim. Сomparison of the clinical effectiveness of screening in people who participated in the preventive health examinations and in patients with AF risk factors admitted to the City geriatric medical hospital. Materials and methods. 101 patients hospitalized to City geriatric medical center were included using the method of continuous selection. Another sample of patients included 102 volunteers who participated in a preventive health examinations organized by the City center for medical prevention in St. Petersburg (convenience sample). Heart activity was registered with portable device MyDyagnostick 1001R. Results. AF was diagnosed in 25 (24.8%) patients from geriatric medical center were. Of these, 12 patients were not suspected of having AF. Among the volunteers undergoing a routine examination, AF was found in 5 people, 3 of whom had paroxysmal AF in anamnesis. Conclusions. In a population of individuals with risk factors, AF was detected in 24.8% of cases; in 48%, AF was not previously detected using standard registration methods, which is in favor of periodic screening of AF in a population with risk factors for its development. In the population of participants of preventive health examinations, AF was found in 5 people, which indicates a low detectability of AF not at risk. Significant signs indicating possible AF were a feeling of palpitations and a history of stroke, which may confirm the need for screening for AF of persons with such symptoms. In screening purposes portable device MyDyagnostick 1001R may be used effectively.

SummaryA retrospective study was done to determine the incidence of and the risk factors predisposing to clinical venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients treated for high grade gliomas. Medical records of 68 consecutive patients diagnosed and treated at Saint Francis Hospital and Medical Center from January 1986 to June 1991 were reviewed. The follow up was to time of death or at least 6 months (up to December 1991). All clinically suspected episodes of VTE were confirmed by objective tests. Sixteen episodes of VTE were detected in 13 patients for an overall episode rate of 23.5%. Administration of chemotherapy (p = 0.027, two tailed Fisher exact test) and presence of paresis (p = 0.031, two tailed Fisher exact test) were statistically significant risk factors for the development of VTE. Thrombotic events were more likely to occur in the paretic limb and this difference was statistically significant (p = 0.00049, chi square test, with Yates correction). No major bleeding complications were seen in the nine episodes treated with long term anticoagulation.We conclude that venous thromboembolic complications are frequently encountered in patients being treated for high grade gliomas and the presence of paresis and the administration of chemotherapy increases the risk of such complications.

Bridges and ferries, as objects of dispute and crime locations among the eighteenth century nobles of Vilnius district, is the main topic of research in this article. Case materials and auxiliary documents from the records of Vilnius district castle and land courts reveal how often bridges are mentioned in the court processes in both violent and non-violent crimes. Research explores what types of violent crimes took place on bridges or ferries most often. It also works on questions of geographic localisation and statistics, discussing general situation of bridges in Vilnius and its neighbouring areas in the eighteenth century. Bridges are regularly mentioned in the books of the eighteenth century Vilnius castle and land courts, albeit most references are not related to conflicts and bridges are mentioned as orientation marks or in reference to location of a real estate object. Both non-violent legal disputes, involving bridges as objects, and violent crimes on the bridges were not in multitude, however non-violent crimes were in smaller numbers. There were seven dispute cases about lands, properties and plots of land where bridges and ferries are mentioned. Non-violent conflicts mostly took place in rural areas of the district, four of them, and three such disputes happened in Vilnius (one on the Green Bridge and two on the bridges over the River Vilnia). Most commonly recorded violent crime on a bridge was beating and, since this was the most common type of crime perpetrated by nobles in the eighteenth century Vilnius district, this trend is logical. A bridge is once mentioned in the record about a raid. In terms of location, more crimes on the bridges took place in the rural space, although this particular space wasn’t dominant, since six crimes were reported in the province and five in the city – two in Vilnius on the Green (Stone) Bridge, two on the bridges over the River Vilnia and one on a ferry near Šnipiškės. Trends in crime locations match general crime tendencies in Vilnius district, where more crimes took place in the rural space than in the urban one. One may guess, that the rare mention of bridges partially testifies to the fact that in the eighteenth century Vilnius district level of communication was not high and there were not too many bridges. On the other hand, when assessing trends in violent crimes in Vilnius district it was revealed that bridge based crimes comprised only one percent of all crimes. Having in mind that bridge is a relatively small object, compared to several different or other urban and rural spaces, this number isn’t that small. Keywords: Vilnius district, castle court, land court, crimes, nobles, peasants, bridges, ferries, passings.

Background: Stroke is a great public health problem in Ethiopia. According to reports, in-hospital stroke mortality was estimated to be 14.7% in Ethiopia. Despite this, in this country researches done on factors associated with stroke sub-types were inadequate. Objective: To assess the Characteristics and risk factors associated with stroke sub-types among patients admitted to JUMC. Methods and materials: A retrospective cross sectional study was conducted from May 2017 to May 2018 in stroke unit of Jimma University Medical Center. A total of 106 medical charts of patients diagnosed with stroke were reviewed. Checklist comprising of relevant variables was used to collect data. SPSS version 21 was employed for data entry and analysis. Chi-square test was used to point-out association and difference among stroke sub-types. The data was presented using text, tables and figures. Result: From a total of 106 patients, 67(63.2%) were men. The mean ± SD of age was 52.67±12.46 years, and no significant association was found. Of all the patients, 59(55.6%) had ischemic strokes and 47(44.4%) had hemorrhagic strokes. The most common risk factor in the patients was alcohol use with a prevalence of 69.9%. Of all the risk factors, only sex, cigarettes smoking and dyslipidemia were significantly associated to sub-types of stroke. Conclusion: Ischemic stroke was the most common subtype of stroke. Sex of patient, cigarette smoking and dyslipidemia are significantly associated with the two stroke subtypes.
