A NEW METHOD FOR PREDICTING BACTERIAL PNEUMONIA IN PATIENTS WITH INFLUENZA AND OTHER ACUTE RESPIRATORY VIRAL INFECTIONS
Purpose: to develop an effective and affordable method for a practical doctor to predict the development of bacterial pneumonia in patients with influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections. Materials and methods: to develop a method for predicting bacterial pneumonia in patients with influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections, a continuous group of 247 patients was formed: 63 of them were diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia for 5-7 days of illness, and the remaining 184 had verified infectious diseases in uncomplicated form. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the proposed forecast method was performed on 150 patients with influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections. The technical basis of this study was the Extech 110 pH meter, with which the observed acidity of the skin of the lower third of the palmar surface of the forearm was studied on the 1-2, 3-4, 7-10 days of the disease. Results: the developed method for predicting bacterial pneumonia in patients with influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections is characterized by prostate use, as well as high rates of sensitivity, specificity and accuracy.Conclusions: the pH level of the skin of the palmar surface of the lower third of the forearm in patients with influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections of less than 4.80 is a statistically significant prognostic criterion for the development of this category of patients in the next 2-3 days of bacterial pneumonia
A new method of etiopathogenetic treatment of patients with influenza
Purpose: to develop an effective and safe method for the etiopathogenetic treatment of influenza patients, aimed at increasing the effectiveness of the existing standard treatment using the antiviral drug oseltamivir.Materials and methods: 150 patients with a verified diagnosis of influenza were taken under observation. All of the participants were divided by randomization into two groups (n1 = 77, n2 = 73) which had the same initial clinical and laboratory characteristics. I group’s patients received standard antiviral therapy using oseltamivir. Patients of the II group at the same time as oseltamivir additionally received an aqueous solution of rehydron for 5 days. All patients underwent determination of the acidity of the mucous membrane of the oropharynx immediately before the start of antiviral therapy and immediately after its completion.Results: patients additionally receiving rehydron had a more rapid leveling of the main symptoms of influenza and a decrease in the frequency of its complications compared with people who received only standard treatment.Conclusions: the developed method of etiopathogenetic treatment of patients with influenza is characterized by a proven level of effectiveness, which is associated with the corrective effect of rehydron on the acid-base balance of the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract. The data obtained in the course of the study indicate not only the absolute scientific novelty of the developed method, but also its applied significance for practical public health
On the participation of super-deep fluids in naphthyogenesis (according to the study of the unique oil deposit of the White Tiger)
White Tiger oil field (Vietnamese shelf of the South-China sea) with its tremendous massive pool in crystalline basement and stable powerful inflows from reservoirs-metasomatites is still unique in that among hydrocarbon giants with proved (according independent mineral-geochemical and seismic-tomography criteria) participation of transmantle (from the surface of outer or liquid core to the upper strata of lithosphera) heat-mass transfer flows-plumes. Those high-energy fluids (polycomponent gaseous mixes in super-compressed state) play various petroleum-genetic role including the avalanche-like generation of hydrocarbons while these fluids interaction with different substrata (domanikites and other hydrocarbopelites, oils and bitumens of more ancient generations, crystalline and sedimentary rocks with high content of dispersed hydrocarbons in different forms). So White Tiger and other fields within the zone of intensive oil-gas-accumulation begin to acquire in the South-China sea (and adjacent regions of East-Southern Asia) the role of proving-ground for investigation of fundamental regularities of petroleum genesis. Obtained preliminary data confirm the validity of geosynergetic conception of hydrocarbons-generating system. Under proper valid-ity it will be able to substitute the sedimentary-migration doctrine as the paradigm of petroleum geology in XXI century
