Treatment Mortality

General purulent peritonitis takes one of the first places in the structure of purulent complications. Despite the im provement of methods of diagnosis and treatment, mortality in postoperative purulent peritonitis remains quite high.Aim of the study: develop a reproducible model of postoperative general peritonitis to study the pathophysiological mechanisms of its development and the development of pathogenetically substantiated therapy.Materials and methods. The study was performed on 18 Wistar male rats aged 6 months, weighing 250–300 grams. Animals underwent laparotomy and modeling of postoperative general peritonitis according to the proposed method. Hospital strains of Escherichia coli BRLS 109 and Bacteroides fragilis 109 (strain ISCST1982, registered in Genbank), which we isolated from patients with acute appendicitis, with a total volume of 1.0 ml per animal, were used as infectious agents. Animals were taken out of the experiment under anesthesia with compliance with the rules of euthanasia at 1st, 3rd, 7th days after surgery. For morphological studies, samples of a fragment of the abdominal wall and cecum were taken. Bacteriological studies were performed on the 3rd, 7th day from the beginning of the experiment.Results. It was established that all animals developed peritonitis with the progression of purulent-destructive changes in the abdominal cavity and the development of adhesions, which was confirmed by the data of the morphological method of research. According to the results of bacteriological studies on the 3rd day, exudate infection was detected in all rats (in 100 % of observations). E. coli BLS were isolated in all cases at concentrations of 103–104 CFU/ml. The strain B. fragilis is inoculated in 3 animals at a concentration of 103 CFU/ml, which made 50 %. By the 7th day, only an aerobic E. coli strain of BLS was detected in peritoneal exudate at concentrations of 103 CFU/ml in the complete absence of growth of B. fragilis.Conclusion. We have developed a model of postoperative general peritonitis, which allows us to study the dynamics of the development of the inflammatory process in the abdominal cavity and, in terms of its clinical manifestations, is close to a real human disease. The reproducibility of the model is 100 %, which is confirmed by microbiological and morphological data.

Escherichia coli remains one of the most frequent causes of several common bacterial infections in humans. Surgery on the abdominal cavity is usually complicated by peritonitis caused by E. coli strains. Recently, there are data confirming the high degree of resistance of this strain. The prevalence of multidrug-resistant E. coli strains is increasing worldwide principally due to the spread of mobile genetic elements, such as plasmids. The rise of multidrug-resistant strains of E. coli also occurs in Ukraine. Therefore, the spread of resistance E. coli is an increasing public health concern in our country. This paper summarizes the antibiotic resistance of clinical E. coli strains, isolated from patients with peritonitis. Furthermore, therapeutic interventions and strategies to prevent and control infections are presented and discussed. The article also provides an overview of the current knowledge concerning promising alternative therapies against E. coli diseases.

Background and Objective: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) are usually misdiagnosed because of rarity and nonspecific clinical and radiological features. The aim of our study is to explore the clinical and imaging characteristics of RDD to improve diagnostic accuracy. Methods: Clinical and imaging data in 10 patients with RDD were retrospectively analyzed. 7 patients were underwent CT scanning and 3 patients were underwent MR examination. Results: 8 (8/10) patients presented with painless enlarged lymph nodes (LNs) or mass. 3 cases were involved with LNs, 5 cases were involved with extra-nodal tissues, and the remaining 2 cases were involved with LNs and extra-nodal tissue simultaneously. In enhanced CT images, enlarged LNs displayed mild or moderate enhancement, and 2 cases showed heterogeneous ring-enhancement. MR features of 3 patients with extra-nodal RDD, 2 cases showed a mass located in the subcutaneous and anterior abdominal wall respectively, and 1 case showed an intracranial mass. Besides, all lesions showed high signal foci on DWI images, and were characterized by marked heterogeneous enhancement with blurred edge. The dural/fascia tail sign and dilated blood vessels could be seen around all the lesions on enhanced MRI. Radiological features of 2 cases with LN and extranodal tissue involved, one case presented with the swelling and thickening of pharyngeal lymphoid ring and nasopharynx, meanwhile with enlarged LNs in bilateral submandibular area, neck and abdominal cavity, and also companied with osteolytic lesion in right proximal humerus. All these LNs displayed mild and moderate enhancement on CT images. Another case showed enlarged LNs in bilateral neck accompanied with soft tissue mass in the sinuses. Conclusions: RDD occurred commonly in young and middle-aged men and presented with painless enlarged LNs or mass.RDD had a huge diversity of imaging findings, which varied with different location. The radiological features, such as small patches of high signal foci in the masses on DWI images, heterogeneous enhancement and blood vessels around the masses, are helpful in diagnosis of extranodal RDD.

Surgical Tactics

Introduction. One of the worst complication of different surgical diseases of abdominal cavity organs and of performed, on that regard, operational interventions, are intestinal festulas including without limitation deodenum fistulas. Longterm experience of surgical treatment of patients with unformed duodenal and high enteric fistulas show that it is feasible to have a clear surgical tactics with account of location level and type of fistulas, their quantity, volume of sarcous reduction, peritonitis and multi-organ failure syndrome. In this regard, the objective of this research is to find optimal surgical tactics and to determine the most effective method of treating duodenum fistulas of various causation.Materials and methods. Experimental work was carried out under conditions of experimentally formed intestinal fistula in rabbits of “Shinshilla” breed. After formation of fistula the animals were divided into 3 groups based on the method of removing artificially installed duodenal fistula: sealing through Albert — Schmieden — Lembert suture without fastening of suture line; sealing through fastening of intestinal suture with biological surgical glue; sealing through fastening with swine dermal collagen. Mechanical constancy of the sutures was measured with pneumocompression of sealed intestinal tract areas as well as with morphological study of surgical wound edges.Results. The results of histological study show that experiments with application of bio-implant demonstrated less vascular congestion and interstitial swelling. Phologistic infiltration also responded more efficiently both quantitatively (manifestation rate) and qualitatively (quick change of cell elements) in the group that used bio-implant.Conclusion. Results of morphological studies and pneumocompression data under modelling of duodenal fistulas in experimental animals show that application of bio-implant helps to earlier restore microcirculatory abnormality.

In this work, we studied the pharmacological activity of zinc and magnesium salts of 2-aminoethanesulfonic acid in white non-linear male rats with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which was modeled by neurotoxicantsimplication into the pelvic part of spinal cord. After the reproduction of the pathology in animals, the indices of motor activity were recorded in the Rotarod test, and morphological studies of spinal cord sections stained according to Nisl in the Belshovsky modification were carried out. It was shown that the magnesium salt of 2-aminoethanesulfonic acid (compound LHT-317) to a greater extent reduces the development of motor disorders in experimental animals compared with the control group on the 4th day of observation. The course of intravenous administration of the studied compounds of 2-aminoethanesulfonic acid did not inhibit morphological changes in the spinal cord that develop in degenerative-dystrophic pathology of the central nervous system: connections. Moreover, if, against the background of treatment with zinc salt, the total area of motor zones in animals of the experimental group exceeded that of control rats, then the number of motoneurons did not differ from the control.

Objectives: To investigate clinical characteristics, bacterial characteristics, drug resistance status in patients with urinary tract infections treated at Department of Urology, Hue University Hospital. Materials and Method: The study was conducted in 474 patients with urological disease treated at Department of Urology, Hue Universiry Hospital from July 2017 to April 2018. Urine culture was done in the patients with urine > 25 Leu/ul who have symptoms of urinary tract disease or infection symptoms. Patients with positive urine cultures were analyzed for clinical and bacterial characteristics. Results: 187/474 (39.5%) patients had symptoms associated with urinary tract infections. 85/474 (17.9%) patients were diagnosed with urinary tract infection. The positive urine culture rate was 45.5%. Symptoms of UTI were varied, and no prominent symptoms. E. coli accounts for the highest proportion (46.67%), followed by, Staphycoccus aureus (10.67%), Pseudomonas aeruginsa (8,0%), Streptococcus faecali and Proteus (2.67%). ESBL - producing E. coli was 69.23%, ESBL producing Enterobacter spp was 33.33%. Gram-negative bacteria are susceptible to meropenem, imipenem, amikacin while gram positive are vancomycin-sensitive. Conclusions: Clinical manifestations of urinary tract infections varied and its typical symptoms are unclear. E.coli is a common bacterium (46.67%). Isolated bacteria have a high rate of resistance to some common antibiotics especially the third generation cephalosporins and quinolones. Most bacteria are resistant to multiple antibiotics at the same time. Gram (+) bacteria are susceptible to vancomycin, and gram (-) bacteria are susceptible to cefoxitin, amikacin, and carbapenem.

Isolates (50) of E. coli obtained from liquid manure (20 bovine, 20 porcine) were genotyped using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Typing revealed 9 and 14 different strains in bovine and porcine liquid manure respectively with no strains in common. One porcine strain, showing a simple RAPD pattern, was subcultured and spread on a test field (1.5l/m2 at 1010 cfu/l) in a drinking water protection zone with loamy to sandy sediments in the Donauried area, Baden-Wurttemberg. Soil samples and groundwaters were collected at monthly intervals October 1994 – June 1995 during which 114 E. coli isolates were recovered. The first occurrence and maximum concentration of E. coli in soil samples taken from more than 20cm depth was in January 1995, declining rapidly with depth and time. All isolates from soil and only one from groundwater showed the RAPD pattern of the spread E. coli strain. The results could not demonstrate a severe negative impact of the spreading of liquid manure on the bacteriological quality of the groundwater in the given geological situation. The distinct strain patterns found in different kinds of liquid manure suggest that genotyping of E. coli by RAPD may be an adequate tool for tracing sources of faecal contamination.

Pulp Repair

Dental pulp is a dynamic tissue able to heal after injury under moderate inflammatory conditions. Our study aimed to evaluate pulp repair under inflammatory conditions in rats. For this purpose, we developed a rat model of controlled pulpitis followed by pulpotomy with a tricalcium silicate-based cement. Fifty-four cavities were prepared on the occlusal face of the maxillary upper first molar of 27 eight-week-old male rats. E. coli lipopolysaccharides at 10 mg/mL or phosphate-buffered saline PBS was injected after pulp injury. Non-inflamed molars were used as controls. Levels of inflammation-related molecules were measured 6 and 24 h after induction by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of coronal pulp samples. Pulp capping and coronal obturation after pulpotomy were performed with tricalcium silicate-based cement. Four and fifteen days after pulpotomy, histological and immunohistochemical analysis was performed to assess pulp inflammation and repair processes. Our results showed significantly higher levels of innate inflammatory proteins (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and CXCL-1) compared with those in controls. Moderate residual inflammation near the capping material was demonstrated by histology and immunohistochemistry, with the presence of few CD68-positive cells. We showed that, in this model of controlled pulpitis, pulpotomy with BiodentineTM allowed the synthesis at the injury site of a mineralized bridge formed from mineralized tissue secreted by cells displaying odontoblastic characteristics. Analysis of these data suggests overall that, with the limitations inherent to findings in animal models, pulpotomy with a silicate-based cement is a good treatment for controlling inflammation and enhancing repair in cases of controlled pulpitis.
