RESUMO
The present clinical study had the objective to evaluate the role of a hypertonic solution of sterile water from the Adriatic Sea in the prevention and treatment of chronic adenoiditis in children. It included 30 children aged from 2.5 to 15 years. The control group was comprised of 30 children treated by intransal drop infusion of physiological saline followed by irrigation of the nasal cavity with framicetin as recommended by the manufacturer. The study failed to reveal a significant difference (P > 0.05) between dynamics of the symptoms of chronic adenoiditis in the patients of either group assessed based on the 10-point analog visual scale. However, the frequency of relapses of adenoiditis during the observation period (3 months) was significantly lower in the patients treated with the hypertonic solution of sterile seawater. Microbiological investigations of the material from the pharyngonasal cavity showed no difference between the occurrence of tansient bacterial microflora in the patients of the study and control groups.

Results of study of microecological disorders in oral cavity of patients with non-specific ulcerative colitis (NSUC) and Crohn's disease (CD) and control subjects (patients with hypertension). Condition of mucosa was assessed on the basis of morphological data and electrophoretic mobility of cell nuclei, whereas structure of microbiocenosis and metabolic activity of microflora--on the basis of saliva bacterial culture and contents and profile of volatile fat acids in it. Detection rate of negative charge of the cell nuclei (decrease of functional activity of epithelium) was significantly higher in patients with NSUC and CD (66.6%) compared with controls (10%). This fact was directly related with hypercolonization of oral cavity by Gram-negative microflora. Lesions of mucosa which are characteristic of NSUC and CD and determined by pathologic immune mechanisms correlated with quantity of pathogenic microflora (Staphylococcus aureus and Candida). Marked differences of chromatograms' patterns were observed in patients with NSUC and CD indicating the suppression of anaerobic microflora in patients with CD and hypercolonization of oral cavity by anaerobic microflora in majority of patients with NSUC.

A complex simultaneous assessment of the microbiota (the aerobic and anaerobic links as well as the parietal and lumen components) of the gutter, vagina, and intestines of women with a pathological pregnancy was performed. In 30% of women the study revealed system dysbiotic changes. Local immune reactivity was decreased, which may be considered a provoking factor. In conclusion, complex microbiological examination makes it possible to objectivize the picture of the pathological process and its outcome. A criterion for the administration of correcting measures is offered.

Recombinant tumor necrosis factor-alpha and gamma-interferon were found in vitro to increase the sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics both alone and in combination; alpha2-interferon decreased this sensitivity.
