[Lipid and phospholipid composition of blood plasma and erythrocyte membranes in children with hemorrhagic vasculitis]. / Osobennosti lipidnogo i fosfolipidnogo sostava plazmy krovi i membran éritrotsitov pri gemorragicheskom vaskulite u detei.

Thin-layer chromatography examination of serum and red cell membrane lipids and phospholipids has been conducted in 37 children with hemorrhagic vasculitis. The authors found: hyperlipidemia resultant from high concentrations of triglycerides, changes in phospholipid fractions due to a relative rise in the level of phosphatidylethanolamine, altered spectrum of red cell membrane lipids due to a significant increase in free cholesterol against low triglycerides. The above shifts may cause hypercoagulation and microcirculatory affections. The conclusion is made on the necessity of correcting impaired lipid spectrum of blood plasma and red cell membrane when conducting basic therapy of hemorrhagic vasculitis.

[Current problems of the treatment of duodenal ulcer in children]. / Aktual'nye voprosy lecheniia iazvennoi bolezni dvenadtsatiperstnoi kishki u detei.

Having a large clinical material at their disposal, the authors base the necessity of the search and administration of more effective methods of duodenal ulcer treatment. Analyze the therapeutic effect produced by the enkephalin analogs (dalargin and its combinations with trichopol, de-nol, oxacillin) in connection with infection with Campylobacter . Comparison of the clinico-endoscopic data with the histological and cytological findings enabled arriving at a conclusion about the pathogenetic effect of the antimicrobial drugs. As a rule, the healing of ulcerous defects set in on days 11-14 of the treatment.

[Gastroduodenal pathology in pyelonephritis in children]. / Gastroduodenal'naia patologiia pri pielonefritakh u detei.

The authors describe lesions of the upper alimentary tract in 91 children aged 4 to 15 years suffering from pyelonephritis. Intragastric pH-metry, endoscopy and histological examination of biopsy specimens from the gastric and duodenal mucosa were carried out, as a result of which gastroduodenal pathology was diagnosed in 3/4 of the patients. In 69.4% of the children, biopsy specimens of the mucous membrane of the antrum of the stomach showed Campylobacter pylori. Such combined pathology requires, in addition to the treatment of pyelonephritis correction of the diet, administration of agents that may contribute to the decrease of upper alimentary tract inflammation. If Campylobacter pylori are detected, the treatment eliminating those bacteria is to be administered.
