Objective of the study: to explore the possibilities of T-SPOT.TB testing to detect tuberculosis infection (TI) in children and adolescents. Materials and methods of research: the design – a multicenter retrospective cohort noncomparative uncontrolled study. The results of examination of children aged 1 to 17 years using the T-SPOT.TB test (n=1565): 774 boys (49,5%), 791 girls (50,5%). The median age of children is 8 [5; 13] years. Results: the rate of positive T-SPOT.TB tests was 7,2% (n=113). Further examination and in-depth examination of children with positive results (n=28), in every 4th case, a history of contact with a tuberculosis (TB) patient was established, every 4th child had previously been under treatment with phthisiatrician. The coincidence of positive results of the T-SPOT.TB test with the Mantoux test – in 87%, with the test with a recombinant tuberculosis allergen – in 100% of cases. Local TB in the phase of reverse development was detected in one child (4%), active TB – in 2 (7%). Conclusion: the T-SPOT.TB test is an alternative method for screening children for TI.

The article continues a series of author’s publications on the formation of personal socio-cultural experience of children and adolescents in the process of education and socialization, which determines the formation of the teenager’s personal position. We consider one of the types of personal socio-cultural experience of adolescents, namely the experience of behavior in situations of choice, making independent decisions, which is crucial in preparing students for life self-determination in all its aspects. The conditions created in the educational organizations for realization by teenagers of independent choice, an opportunity of acceptance by teenagers of independent decisions are studied. The results of the analysis of school documentation and teachers’ views on the significance of the experience of self-determination of adolescents, typical situations of uncertainty, are based on the results of the survey. A conclusion is drawn on the need to design a space for self-determination of adolescents in an educational organization and to implement technologies for the pedagogical support of adolescents in situations of choice.

Progressive Myopia

Objective: to determine optimal method of progressive myopia optical correction in children and adolescents.Patients and methods. Conducted 5-year prospective clinical and instrumental examination of 494 children with myopia using orthokeratology lenses, soft contact lenses and glasses. 61 children (the average age 11.7 ± 2.36 years) with myopia –2.87 ± 1.1 D and astigmatism –0.58 ± 0.27 D used orthokeratological lens. 92 children (the average age 12.8 ± 1.51 years) with myopia –3.66 ± 1.07 D, astigmatism –0.53 ± 0.18 D wore soft contact lens. 79 children (the average age 11.52 ± 1.78 years) with myopia –1.59 ± 1.08 D, astigmatism –0.71 ± 0.54 D used glasses with monofocal lenses, with full correction. The control group consisted of 249 children (the average age 9.1 ± 1.14 years) with initial emmetropia. Determination of refraction, subjective and objective determination of accommodation, and axial length of the eye (“IOL-master”) was conducted in children.Results. The maximum progression of myopia was observed in younger children (8–9 years). Correction of myopia with orthokeratology lenses (OKLs) was accompanied by the lowest dynamics of changes in axial length (axial elongation 0,44 ± 0,32 mm) compared to the correction with soft contact lenses (SCLs) (axial elongation 0,73 ± 0,36 mm), spectacle correction (axial elongation 1,39 ± 0,47 mm) and the control group (axial elongation 0,6 ± 0,41 mm). In all children with myopia, at the beginning of the study, there were reduced values reserve of relative accommodation and an objective accommodative response. Correction of myopia with OKLs (p = 0,0002) and SCLs (p = 0,036) provides the normalization of subjective and objective reserve indication of relative accommodation in both age group in comparison of spectacles correction.Conclusion. Correction with orthokeratology lens in children with progressive myopia contributes to the minimum growth length of the eye. Correction of myopia OKLs and MKL improves of subjective and objective indicators of relative accommodation reserve.

Research conducted in both the field of yoga and the field of behavioural disorders in children and adolescents leads to the speculation that the benefits of yoga practice demonstrated with respect to physiological, psychological, emotional, and psychosocial functioning may be applicable to the impairments evidenced in these areas in behavioural disorders. The intervention—20 weekly one-hour sessions of yoga—required a large commitment for the participants, their families, and the yoga instructor. The results suggested that yoga appears to exert its impact on stabilising the emotions (a secondary symptom) and reducing oppositional behaviour, frequently co-morbid (40%) with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Given the limitations of this study, the results do indicate some significant changes in the behaviour of some of the boys with ADHD. In conclusion, yoga shows promise as a non-invasive, inexpensive, adjuvant treatment for boys with ADHD.
