Introduction. Despite the world practice, the problem of inflammatory diseases of the paranasal sinuses is still relevant and has an important social meaning. Despite the fact that rhinosinusitis is one of the most common diseases, the reisvery little accurate data on its epidemiology. Therefore, our goal was to conduct a clinical epidemiological analysis with the establishment of the role of rhinosinusitis in the structure of requests for medical care in multidisciplinary polyclinics. Materials and methods. The data on the prevalence of various forms of sinusitis in the structure of ambulatory-polyclinic patients in the period 2011-2015 have been studied. In patients with acute rhinosinusitis, the following parameters were analyzed: gender and age of patients, duration, clinical variant of the disease, duration of treatment. Results. A clinical and statistical analysis of medical aid appeals at the level of the multidisciplinary outpatient clinic of the Vinnytsia City Clinical Hospital of ambulatory care and the Communal Medical Center "City Medical and Diagnostic Center" of Vinnytsia during 2011-2015. A statistical analysis based on the criterion approach included 896 patients with rinosunsitis. The following parameters have been analyzed: gender and age of patients, duration, clinical variant of the disease, duration of treatment. The conducted researches indicate that in the structure of appeals to the otolaryngologist rhinosinusitis is dominated by acute rhinosinusitis, the frequency of which remained relatively stable for five consecutive years: 133 cases - in 2011, 143 in 2012, 168 in 2013, 150 and 151 in 2014 and 2015, respectively. Among ambulatory polyclinic patients with different clinical variants of sinusitis prevailing persons of young working age. In general, patients with acute bacterial rhinosinusitis in the age group up to 60 years old make up 90.6%, which emphasizes the socioeconomic significance of this pathology. The frequency of treatment with rhinosinusitis is dominated by maxillary sinus lesions. The median duration of treatment was greatest in the case of hemi-sinusitis and polysynytes – 11.27±3.69 and 11.23±3.99 days, respectively, and the lowest in patients with frontal lobe was 9.48±3,76 days (p=0.032). A reduction in the mean duration of treatment for patients during the last three years of observation was observed (p<0.001). Conclusions: The study of the main clinical and epidemiological indicators of rhinosinusitis in the Ukrainian population can be the basis for the in for medplanning of medical care and social activities for this category of otolaryngological patients.

Subcutaneous nodules, composed of necrotic collagen surrounded by chronic inflammatory cells, occur in about 20% of individuals with rheumatoid arthritis, 10% of those with acute rheumatic fever, and 25% of children with granuloma annulare. Similar subcutaneous lesions indistinguishable from rheumatoid nodules may appear in children who do not develop other stigmata of disease. Mesara and ous lesions of granuloma annulare. Therefore, they felt that, in children, these nodules probably represented a clinical variant of granuloma annulare. Beatty3 described nine children aged 11 days to 9 years with nodules on the scalp, ulnar aspect of the arm, dorsum of the foot, and palm of the hand which appeared histologically to be rheumatoid nodules.

Methylglutaconic Aciduria

3-Methylglutaconic aciduria has been described in two distinct syndromes. In one there was deficient 3-methylglutaconyl coenzyme A hydratase in fibroblast extracts where the only clinical manifestation was retarded speech development. In the second syndrome, the enzyme activity was normal but prominent neurological deterioration was noted. We describe two siblings with 3-methylglutaconic aciduria with normal enzyme activity who had choreoathetoid movements, optic atrophy, and mild developmental delay. The boy demonstrated developmental improvement in his second year of life, and his sister developed well, with normal school performance. These patients represent a new clinical variant of the second syndrome with a relatively favorable prognosis.

Variant Database

A database organizes information, but since information is produced by actors, it also coordinates the different actors involved with data. Here, focusing on the newly created ClinVar, a genomic clinical variant database, we will see how it helps the government, academia, and industry (represented mainly by the company Illumina) find their positions relative to one another. This essay is part of a special issue entitled Histories of Data and the Database edited by Soraya de Chadarevian and Theodore M. Porter.

Functional gastrointestinal disorders are considered as a clinical variant of the interaction between psychosocial factors and gastrointestinal tract physiology implemented through the "brain - intestine" axis. The purpose of the study was to investigate psychological peculiarities of children with irritable bowel syndrome. The study included 68 children aged from 14 to 18 years with the confirmed diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome. To determine the type of character accentuation, the Schmishek -Leonhard test questionnaire (child version) was used. The SCL-90-R test questionnaire (by L. Derogatis method) was applied to determine psycho-emotional disorders. The study has found out the majority of patients have certain psycho-emotional disorders. The group of children with irritable bowel syndrome, who were experiencing constipation, more frequently demonstrated an emotional type of character accentuation and a somatized and depressed type of psychological disorders. The patients with irritable bowel syndrome and diarrhoea had cycloid and demonstrative types of character accentuation and demonstrated an anxious type according to the questionnaire. The patients with mixed bowel rhythms exhibited features of a cycloid, emotional, and pedantic type of character accentuation. Depression, anxiety, somatised types were reported as manifestations of psychological disorders.
