Possibilities of combined nasal drugs in symptomatic therapy of allergic rhinitis in adolescent children

This article provides an overview of current views on the problem of allergic rhinitis (AR) in children. Modern data on the epidemiology of AR and the main comorbid conditions are highlighted. It has been noted that adolescence is the peak incidence of AR. Despite the similar clinical manifestations of AR in adolescent children, it should be borne in mind that patients in this age group represent a unique population with needs and perceptions of problems that are different from those of adults and young children. Mental perception of the symptoms of the disease is more often more pronounced in adolescents than in other age groups. This manifests itself in a large negative impact on both sleep and rest patterns, as well as on learning activity and exam results. The work of a doctor with patients of this age group requires the most rationalized approach. Based on the data of the latest consensus documents, the role of I and II generation antihistamines, intranasal antihistamines and intranasal glucocorticosteroids was assessed. The possibilities of symptomatic therapy of symptomatic moderate and severe AR with the help of nasal sprays based on a fixed combination of intranasal glucocorticosteroids and antihistamines have been evaluated in more detail. The available data from clinical studies of the use of a nasal spray based on a fixed combination of mometasone furoate and olopatadine are reviewed. Based on the above material, it was concluded that nasal sprays of a fixed combination of mometasone furoate and olopatadine are effective means of starting therapy for moderate to severe seasonal and perennial AR in children over 12 years of age. Such combination drugs can reduce the severity of AR symptoms with a relatively low risk of developing adverse events

MULTIPROCESSOR MODELING TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE APPLIED STATISTICAL TASKS

The work considers the multiprocessors technologies of modeling for Monte Carlo tasks. It is shown that only application of the modern super productive systems permitted the new way to realize the mechanism of corresponding partitioned computations. The calculating schemes that supply to provide the increase of productivity and calculations' speed effectiveness are shown. In this article the modified algorithm of parallel calculations is offered based on the Monte Carlo method. Here every calculator has its own random generator of numbers. Thus intermediate calculations come true independently on the different, separately taken blades of cluster, "calculators". The results are already processed on some separately taken master -blades ("analyzer"). This allows to get rid from the necessary presence of router-communicator between the random generator of numbers and "calculator". Obviously, that such decision allows to accelerate the process of calculations. It is shown that the parallel algorithms of the Monte Carlo method are stable to any input data and have the maximal parallel form and, thus, minimal possible time of realization using the parallel computing devices. If it is possible to appoint one processor to one knot of calculation. Thus the realization of calculations becomes possible in all knots of net area in parallel and simultaneously.The work considers the multiprocessors technologies of modeling for Monte Carlo tasks.

Topical antibiotics for acute rhinosinusitis in children

The authors presented an overview of the existing data on inhalation therapy with antibacterial drugs in acute rhinosinusitis and exacerbation of chronic rhinosinusitis in children. The overview includes general information about the etiology and features of the course of acute rhinosinusitis. It also contains indications for systemic and topical antibiotic therapy in acute rhinosinusitis specified in the Russian clinical guidelines. The advantages of using a combination preparation of thiampheni-col and N-acetylcysteine by inhalation therapy for acute rhinosinusitis in children and adults are considered separately. A clinical case of a 15-year-old female patient with complaints of persistent rhinitis over the past 4-5 years is discussed. Historical information: a patient had a runny nose over the last 4-5 years: persistent, viscous nasal discharge with moderate nasal congestion. Nasal symptoms worsened with episodes of acute respiratory illness, and nasal discharge became mucopurulent. The child was preliminarily diagnosed with chronic rhinosinusitis (incomplete remission), moderate course. To reduce the severity of the symptoms of the disease, which were present at the time of examination, the following were recommended: daily one-to-two irrigation of the nasal cavity with slightly hypertonic (1.5-3%) solutions of sea water, followed by a toilet of the nasal cavity; in case of episodes of colds with the appearance of mucopurulent secretions, inhalation therapy in a pulsating mode of the inhaler with a solution of thiamphenicol and N-acetylcysteine at a dose of 500 mg once a day (in the first half of the day) for the next 10 days and further; the use of a nasal spray of mometasone furoate, 200 mcg per day during inhalation therapy for another 3 weeks. At the follow-up examination after 10 days of treatment, the patient reported a significant decrease in the severity of nasal symptoms, which coincided with an improvement in the rhinoscopic status. It can be concluded that the use of topical antibacterial drugs by inhalation therapy for acute rhinosinusitis, despite all its advantages, is not an equivalent substitute for systemic antibiotic therapy in the treatment of severe and especially complicated forms of the disease. The inhalation therapy is recommended in the presence of indications for systemic antibiotic therapy, since it is an auxiliary method of treatment, the action of which is aimed at enhancing the effect of systemic antibiotics

The influenza epidemic in Russia during the 2014–2015 season

The goal of this study was to compare the data on the intensity of the influenza A(H3N2) and B epidemic (especially the death toll) in the 2014–2015 season with the previous epidemic of the 2013-2014 season. The data on weekly morbidity, hospitalization, deaths from influenza, and acute respiratory diseases in different age groups of inhabitants of 59 cities located in 7 Federal districts of the Russian Federation were collected using the database of the Research Institute of Influenza.Analysis of this data showed that the influenza epidemic in 2014-2015 began earlier (in December) compared to the epidemic of 2013-2014, and spread mainly from Europe through Russia to the East. The intensity of the epidemic of 2014-2015 was higher compared to the previous one. The epidemic was more prevalent by regions and cities and a wider engagement of different age groups (except children up to 2 years of age) was observed. At the peak of the epidemic, the morbidity level was higher, the average duration of the epidemic was longer, and the number of patients among cities’ inhabitants (especially among children 7-14 years of age and adults) was higher than in the previous season. The rates of hospitalization with influenza and acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) among patients older than 65 years were also higher (1.4 times) as well as the frequency of hospitalization with a diagnosis of “influenza” (2.7 times) and the number of deaths from laboratory confirmed influenza (1.8 times).Although the influenza pandemic virus strain A(H1N1)pdm09 was not the main causative agent of the 2015 epidemic and was distributed sporadically it still remained the leading cause of deaths from influenza in the course of this epidemic (45.5% of all cases). The deaths associated with this strain were recorded only in the European part of Russian Federation.The goal of this study was to compare the data on the intensity of the influenza A(H3N2) and B epidemic (especially the death toll) in the 2014–2015 season with the previous epidemic of the 2013-2014 season.
