Objective of research: to study the regional epizootology, species composition and bioecological features of development of causative agents of cattle hypodermatosis and elaboration of struggle measures against it in the Chechen Republic. Materials and methods: Data on extensity and intensity of invasion, species composition of causative agents of cattle hypodermatosis, seasonal dynamics, larval approach to the surface of animal back (gadfly larvae deposited in animals’ skin), time of the larval-pupal transformation (stages of larval development), treatment and prevention measures are provided in this article. Results and discussion: This research has found that in the Chechen Republic the extensity of gadfly invasion was in the range 24,4% — 62,1%; the intensity of invasion was 9,8 — 24,0 larv./animal. Two gadfly species Hypoderma bovis De Geer and Hypoderma lineatum De Villers are causative agents of animal hypodermatosis. H. bovis is spread everywhere, H. lineatum — mainly in plain and piedmont of the republic. Gadfly flight in different natural-climatic zones of the republic is registered from the end of April until the middle of October. Treatment and prevention measures continuously conducted for the whole livestock ( in spring against larvae of the 1st stage and in autumn — against larvae of the 2nd and 3rd development stages), taking into account ecological, phenological and epizootological situation in the region, may contribute to the full elimination of causative agents of hypodermatosis or their significant minimizing, reduction of economic damage to livestock of the republic. Based on experimental data, the economically reasonable schedule of treatment and prevention measures has been created.

This article presents results of studying distribution and seasonal dynamics of associative parasitosis of gastrointestinal tract of sheep. It was found that most common cases in surveyed sheep farms were recorded invasion of sheep with strongyles of gastrointestinal tract (in 100% of cases) with an average invasion intensity of 55.47% and an invasion intensity of 14.26 eggs per 1 g of feces. The predominant trichostrongylidae spp. in structure are haemonchus – 54.56%, they also pose greatest danger to sheep, since they are hematophages. Samples from 66.67% of surveyed farms revealed Eimeria spp. with an invasion intensity from 32.2% to 72% and an invasion intensity from 233.15 to 1685.32 oocysts in 1 g of feces. Strongyloides invasion was detected in 50% of surveyed farms. On average, prevalence of invasion was 18.38%. It was found that most critical period with a significantly high degree of invasion in young lambs is spring season (p<0.001), which is characterized by a high degree of extensiveness and intensity of invasion (Eimeria spp. and cryptosporidium).

The history of the department of ophthalmology of the Kazan State Medical Academy for the 90-year period was analyzed. The department was founded in September, 1922. The reason for the foundation of the department was the trachoma that was rampant at that time in the Volga region. Academician V.V. Chirkovskiy (1874-1956), who headed the department from 1922 to 1928, was the founder and the first director of the first in USSR Trachoma Institution based in Kazan. From 1929 to 1932 professor Valentin Yemel’yanovich Adamyuk (1877-1950), the honoured Scientific researcher of the republic of Tatarstan was the head of the eye clinics of the medical academy and of the Scientific and Research Trachoma Institution. In 1932 professor, the honoured Scientific researcher of the republic of Tatarstan Alexandr Nikolaevich Murzin (1885-1954) has won the elections and headed the department. He secured the merging of the Scientific and Research Trachoma Institution and the eye clinics of the medical academy into the one institution. Thanks to the proper healthcare management and treatment and prevention measures trachoma was eliminated in republic of Tatarstan in 1964. Later, the department was chaired by Alexandr Nikiforovich Kruglov (1952-1964), Kamilya Islamovna Gafarova (1964-1967), Moisey Bencionovich Wufgart (1967-1987), Liyuda Bakhtigareevna Galiaskarova (1987-1996), Marina Vladimirovna Kuznetsova (1996-2012). Since March 2012 the department is headed by PhD, Principal out-of-staff ophthalmologist of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Tatarstan Aidar Nailevich Amirov. Nowadays the department staff completes over 5000 complicated eye microsurgeries yearly, and also consults the patients form Republic of Tatarstan and nearby regions with complicated cases of different eye diseases at the out-patients clinic and departments of the hospital.

Nematodoses of the sheep’s digestive tract is distributed both in Ukraine and abroad. Pathogens of these diseases in the form of monoinvasions, as well as associative with other invasive diseases, cause sheep farms considerable economic losses. Systematic monitoring studies that are carried out to establish a helminthofauna specific to a particular region are a key to successful control of parasitic diseases. Information on the species composition of pathogens causing invasive diseases in animals in the territory of a certain region, allows us to conduct scientifically based selection of drugs and to conduct effective, cost-based treatment and prevention measures. Therefore, the purpose of our research was to establish the distribution of nematodoses of the digestive canal of sheep and their peculiarities in the conditions of sheep farms in the territory of the Kyiv region (Central region of Ukraine). The research was conducted in conditions of sheep farms in the Kyiv region (Baryshivka, Bila Tserkva, Zghurivka, Pereiaslav-Khmelnytskyi, Skvyra, Tarashcha, Fastiv and Yahotyn districts). Helminthoscopy of fecal samples was performed using the McMaster’s method. As a result of scatoscopy diagnostics of sheep, a considerable distribution of nematodoses of the digestive canal was established on the territory of the Kyiv region (the severity of the invasion was 48.79 %). According to the morphological features of eggs isolated from faeces of sick animals, parasitization of nematodes from three sequences was established: Strongylata (38.98 %), Trichocephalata (33.36 %), and Rhabditata (27.66 %). It was registered that the sheep farming of the Bila Tserkva, Yahotyn and Zghurivka districts (EI – 61.49, 59.73 and 54.17 % respectively) were the most unfavorable for nematodoses of the digestive tract. The disease was registered in the form of both mono- and mixinvasions. The associative course of diseases (75.03 % of the total number of diseased animals) was dominant with two-, three-, four-, and five-component associations of sheep parasite pathogens (47.63, 35.47, 11.50 and 5.40 % in accordance). It has been established that nematodoses of the digestive canal of sheep (strongylates of the digestive canal, strongyloides and trichiuruses) are in the composition of mixinvasions, the sympathizers of which are: eimeries, moniezies, and melofagoses in various combinations. Key words: nematodoses, strongylatoses of the digestive canal, trichiuruses, strongyloides, scatoscopy research.

One of the reasons that reduce the efficiency of sheep breeding development and lead to significant economic losses of the industry in Ukraine and the world is helminthic diseases, particularly strongyloidiasis caused by parasitic nematodes. Strongyloides parasitize in the small intestine of animals and lead to slow growth and development of young sheep, diarrhea, anemia, ataxia. At the high intensity of invasion - animals can die. The study aimed to analyze monitoring studies on the prevalence of strongyloidiasis in sheep in Ukraine based on statistical data of the reporting documentation of the State Research Institute for Laboratory Diagnostics and Veterinary Sanitary Examination during 2016–2020. Studies have shown that helminthiasis of sheep is a common invasion in farms of various forms of ownership in Ukraine, where the extent of the invasion ranged from 1.44 to 3.27 %. The share of helminthiasis of the digestive tract of sheep from the total number of detected helminthiasis reaches 84.21 %. The most common of the helminthiases of the gastrointestinal tract were nematodes; their share was 63.07 %. Trematodes and cestodes were diagnosed less frequently; their share among helminthiases of the digestive tract was 35.05 and 1.88 %, respectively. It was found that among the nematodes of the digestive tract parasitizing in sheep in Ukraine, the largest share was strongylidosis, in particular bunostomosis, nematodyrosis, hemonchosis (65.20 %), and strongyloidiasis (33.92 %). A smaller proportion were esophagostomosis (0.74 %) and trichurosis (0.14 %). Indicators of prevalence were: for strongylidosis (bunostomosis, nematodyrosis, hemonchosis) – 10.98 %, for strogiloidiasis – 4.48 %, for esophagostomosis – 0.42 %, for trichurosis – 0.21 %. In terms of years, the rates of damage to sheep by the causative agent of strongyloidiasis fluctuated significantly with the increasing prevalence of strongyloidiasis invasion during 2019–2020. Indicators of infestation of sheep with the causative agent of strongyloidiasis during the study period in Ukraine were at the level of 1.91 % (2018) to 16.14 % (2019). The data we obtained testify to the urgency of the problem of nematodes, particularly strongyloidiasis of sheep in Ukrainian farms, and lead to more thorough research on epizootological, biological features of the causative agent strongyloidiasis and the introduction of effective treatment and prevention measures.

The analysis of infectious and invasive diseases of horses spread in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) was carried out. The data from the reports of the Department of Veterinary Medicine and the Republican Veterinary and Testing Laboratory for the period 1986-2017 was used. The main diseases of horses bred in herds in the conditions of Yakutia, which cause significant economic damage, are rhinopneumonia, salmonellosis, leptospirosis, horse strangles, strongylatoses and parascaridosis. These diseases reduce actual foal crops by 20-40% due to infectious abortions. Economic damage per 100 mares may amount to 800-1600 thousand rubles per year. Salmonellosis abortion was registered in 143 settlements of 22 districts, leptospirosis - in 199 settlements in 25 districts. Incidence of horse strangles accounts for 62%, mortality rate being from 4 to 22%. Circulation of the rhinopneumonia virus was noted in 99 settlements of 16 districts. The prevalence of strongylatoses and parascaridosis is 100 and 64.7%, respectively. The greatest concern for horses is caused by 6 species of gadflies of the genus Hybomitra. Species composition of bloodsucking mosquitoes of Central and Western Yakutia is represented by 14-15 species. The epizootic situation in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) with salmonellosis abortion, rhinopneumonia, leptospirosis, horse strangles, strongylatosis, parascaridosis and entomosis remains tense. It is necessary to develop and implement plans for the prevention of infectious and parasitic diseases using diagnostic stodies, effective vaccines, anthelmmtics and probiotics.

The Species Composition and Seasonal Dynamics of Thrips (Thysanoptera) Populations on Maize (Zea MaysL.) in Southeastern PolandThrips species composition and seasonal abundance was studied on maize crops during two seasons (2006-2007), in southeastern Poland. Altogether 21 species have been identified, among themFrankliniella tenuicornis(Uzel 1895) andHaplothrips aculeatus(Fabricius 1803) which are a graminicolous species and were eudominants, comprising 96.8% in 2006 and 82.0% in 2007 of all collected specimens. Other species occurred only in low numbers. The frequent and numerous presence ofF. tenuicornisspecies in their immature stages in the samples, confirmed the role of the maize plant as the host.H. aculeatusprobably chose maize as a food source and substitute plant for breeding.

SUMMARY The exfoliative (epidermolytic) toxins of Staphylococcus aureus are the causative agents of the staphylococcal scalded-skin syndrome (SSSS), a blistering skin disorder that predominantly affects children. Clinical features of SSSS vary along a spectrum, ranging from a few localized blisters to generalized exfoliation covering almost the entire body. The toxins act specifically at the zona granulosa of the epidermis to produce the characteristic exfoliation, although the mechanism by which this is achieved is still poorly understood. Despite the availability of antibiotics, SSSS carries a significant mortality rate, particularly among neonates with secondary complications of epidermal loss and among adults with underlying diseases. The aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive review of the literature spanning more than a century and to cover all aspects of the disease. The epidemiology, clinical features, potential complications, risk factors, susceptibility, diagnosis, differential diagnoses, investigations currently available, treatment options, and preventive measures are all discussed in detail. Recent crystallographic data on the toxins has provided us with a clearer and more defined approach to studying the disease. Understanding their mode of action has important implications in future treatment and prevention of SSSS and other diseases, and knowledge of their specific site of action may provide a useful tool for physiologists, dermatologists, and pharmacologists.
