RESUMO
The present study was designed to elucidate the relationship between palmar and digital dermatoglyphic patterns and descriptive signs of human appearance based on the results of comprehensive anthropometric examination of 2620 men and 380 women. A battery of different methods were used to statistically treat the results of dactyloscopic records. They demonstrated correlation between skin patterns and external body features that can be used to construct diagnostic models for the purpose of personality identification.

The prevalence of trichinosis was analyzed among human beings and animals in Moscow Province over 50 years (1946-1996). A total of 7022 domestic, synanthropic, and wild carnivorous animals were incompletely helminthologically dissected. Enzyme immunoassay revealed diagnostic Trichinella antigen antibody titers in 45.4% of 544 examinees during outbreaks and at their intervals, as well as in 0.58% of domestic pigs of different property forms. Trichinella larvae were found in domestic pigs (0.13%), dogs (12.3%), cats (12.9%), hunting and fur-bearing (wild boars (2.0%), wolves (38.8%), red foxes (32.0%), raccoon-like dogs (20.0%)) animals and rats (2.4%). Criteria were developed and epidemiological and epizootic division of the districts near Moscow was made. Three unfavourable (hyperendemic, mesoendemic, hypoendemic) and one favourable areas were identified. A trichinosis control programme was worked out.

Upward diaphragmatic displacement was performed in 53 patients after massive lung resection for tuberculosis or bronchiectasis and the data are presented. This technique provides ample room for expansion of the remainder of the lung; it also avoids overexpansion, activation of tuberculous foci, and relapse of bronchiectasis. Diaphragamatic displacement can be used for liquidation of a remaining infected cavity. In children with massive bronchiectasis it serves to conserve two unaffected segments and avoids pneumonectomy. During pneumonectomy in children it prevents significant shift of the mediastinum and progression of scoliosis.
