Background. Suppurative septic postpartum complications occupy a leading position in the structure of causes of maternal mortality. Information about the characteristics of pathogenic microflora in various forms of complications and analysis of its resistance to antibacterial drugs determine the choice of rational therapy for this pathology.Objectives — to characterize the isolated pathogenic microflora in obstetric patients with suppurative septic postpartum complications.Methods. A retrospective cohort study was conducted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology No. 2 of the Omsk State Medical University and the Department of Gynecology of the Omsk Regional Clinical Hospital. The study included 123 cesarean section patients treated from January 2013 to December 2022 who were divided into three groups: Group A — uncomplicated course of postpartum endometritis, n = 55; Group B — complicated forms of postpartum endometritis, n = 48: B1 — local complications (suture failure following cesarean section; parametritis) n = 29; B2 — pelvic peritonitis, n = 19; Group C — septic complications following critical obstetric conditions, n = 20. The pathogenic microflora of uterine and abdominal cavities was examined; the extent of contamination with a pathogen and sensitivity to antibacterial drugs were determined. The isolated microorganisms were identified using a MicroTax bacteriological analyzer (Austria), Vitek2 Compact (France) and routine methods; a disk diffusion method was employed to determine the sensitivity of microorganisms to antibacterial drugs. Calculations were performed using licensed Microsoft Office Excel 2013 and Statistica 10 programs (StatSoft Inc., USA). Nonparametric nominal data were compared using Pearson’s chi-squared test with p-value determination.Results. The pathogenic microflora was dominated by S. epidermidis, E. faecalis, E. coli, and E. faecium. In 2018–2022, a statistically significant decrease was observed in the isolation rate of S. epidermidis (p = 0.016), E. faecalis (p < 0.001), and E. faecium (p = 0.05). The highest resistance was exhibited by bacteria to the following antibiotics: S. epidermidis — cephalosporins (30.16%); E. faecalis — fluoroquinolones (33.33%); E. coli — cephalosporins (65.91%) and β-lactamase-resistant penicillins (40.91%); E. faecium — aminopenicillins (64.10%) and fluoroquinolones (50.0%); А. baumannii — fluoroquinolones, cephalosporins, carbapenems (100%), and aminoglycosides (84.2%). A contamination assessment revealed a high titer of isolated microorganisms in 60.53% of cases. We found a statistically significantly higher isolation rate of S. еpidermidis (p < 0.001), E. faecium (p = 0.01), and A. baumannii (p = 0.02) in the setting of pelvic peritonitis as compared to uncomplicated endometritis. In the case of suppurative septic complications due to critical obstetric conditions, the isolation rate was higher for S. еpidermidis (p

The additional molecular and chromosomal abnormalities (ACA) in Phositive cells usually considered as a genetic marker of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) progression. 457 patients in different CML phases received tyrosine kinase inhibitors (1st and 2nd generation) were studied. During therapy 50 cases with additional chromosomal abnormalities in Ph+ clone (22 of them in chronic CML phase) were revealed (median follow-up from CML diagnosis – 117 months, median imatinib therapy – 62 months). 86 % of patients in chronic phase with Ph+- cell abnormalities were cytogenetic resistance, and their 5-years overall survival was 80 % which was significantly lower than in patients without ACA (p < 0.005). The treatment results depend on chromosomal abnormalities detected. In patients with additional chromosome 8 imatinib therapy is effective, although complete cytogenetic response (CCR) is achieved only in the later therapy stages. In patients with additional translocations CCR also achieved with imatinib or 2nd generation TKI. Only a third of patients with additional Ph-chromosome or BCR/ABL amplification achieved complete suppression of Ph+ clone using 2nd generation TKI. The presence of additional chromosome 7 abnormalities and complex karyotype disorders involving isochromosome i(17)(q10) are poor prognostic factors of TKI treatment failures.

The article reviewed is devoted to the linguistic representation of the grammatical category of quantity through comparing grammatical techniques applied to express the meaning both in the Russian and Chinese languages.

AIM. To assess the main epidemiological characteristics of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in the Russian Federation. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A planned epidemiological prospective study was conducted in 2009-2012 in 6 Russian regions with the total number of 10.1 million inhabitants, which notified all new CML cases. RESULTS. The unstandardized (unnormalized, baseline) recorded incidence of CML in the examined regions was 0.58 per 100,000 annually. Its standardized (normalized) incidence was 0.70 for the WHO standard population and 0.72 for the European standard population. The regional variations in the incidence were 0.44 to 0.69. The structural analysis of the incidence in the age strata indicated that the overall morbidity was less due to the decreased rate of registration in old age groups. The morbidity rates in patients aged less than 60 years were nearly similar to the European rates; those in patients aged over 70 years were almost 10 times lower. The lower rate of detection and screening diagnosis of CML in pensioners in primary health care is discussed. CONCLUSION. The data obtained in this study may serve as the starting point for monitoring the CML epidemiological situation.

The article deals with the aspects to present phonetic and phonological systems of The Russian and Polish languages. At the same time similarities and differences in the two languages compared reveal both universal and unique, specific characteristics in course of assimilation of Russian and Polish consonants.

The article reviewed is devoted to the linguistic representation of the grammatical category of quantity through comparing grammatical techniques applied to express the meaning both in the Russian and Korean languages. There's also observed the neutralization of numeric forms.

The article deals with the questions of how the category of quantitativity is represented in Linguistics and how Russian and Spanish grammatical forms correlate depending on meaning expressed. The article presents the phenomenon of neutralization of singular and plural forms in the both languages compared.

The article deals with the question of how the category of quantitativity is represented in philosophy, logic, mathematics and linguistics and demonstrates multidimensionality and interdisciplinarity of the category. The article presents ancient scientists' views on the problem as well as the history of the development of the category of quantitativity.

This article concerns categorical semantics of number. This grammar category is regarded as a unity between meaning and form. Opinions of Russian and Spanish linguists on this problem are represented in this article. The languages are compared in the aspect of semantic field and lexical groups. The research is based on Russian and Spanish appellation of clothes and accessories.
