[Psychological aspects of systemic approach to intra-nosological diagnosis in arterial hypertension].

AIM: To evaluate significance of the program of psychological examination of patients with essential hypertension (EH) for clinicians and characterize the patients psychologically. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 46 EH patients were examined for time of trouble, stress liability, psychological reaction to the disease, factors of vitality. 24-h blood pressure (BP) monitoring was made in 40 patients. RESULTS: It is shown that in EH more frequent are hypochondriac and anxiodepressive psychological types. "White coat" hypertensive reactions (primarily, a rise of systolic blood pressure by 12.5%, on the average) were observed in any psychological types but more in the hypochondriac type. Time of trouble and stress liability were high and correlated. Cluster analysis has identified patients with the highest mean BP. Their psychological analysis is presented. CONCLUSION: The proposed program of evaluation of psychological features of somatic patients allow to define main psychological factors influencing BP. This program is available for clinicians who are not professional psychologists.

[The prognosis of the antianginal effect of foridon compared to other antianginal preparations].

The study covered 20 patients with angina pectoris. Antianginal drugs such as sydnopharm, kordafen, anaprilin, nitrosorbide, and foridon were tested by using pair exercise tests. All the patients had preliminary instrumental studies, including exercise test, echocardiography, hyperventilation and orthostatic tests, and variation pulsometry. A regression equation was derived, which could predict the efficacy of foridon from the findings of the tests used. The antianginal effect of foridon was found to be the weakest among the other drugs under study.

[Epidemiology of bacillary dysentery in Algeria. I. The epidemiological aspects of dysentery in Algeria].

Bacterial dysentery plays an important role among infectious diseases in Algeria. A tendency to the growth of the morbidity rate has been observed. Dysentery is irregularly spread in different zones of the country. The highest morbidity rate is registered in the Sahara zone and in the eastern part of the country. The morbidity rate among the urban population is higher than among the rural population. S. flexneri prevail in the etiological structure of dysentery infection. Of all age groups, the highest morbidity rate is observed among children during the first 2 years of life. In recent years lethality varies between 2.9% and 7.5%. Patients are hospitalized mainly on the basis of clinical symptoms.

[Epidemiology of bacillary dysentery in Algeria. II. The seasonality of dysentery].

Morbidity rises during the period of summer and autumn are characteristic of bacterial dysentery in Algeria. During the last 18 years no essential changes in the seasonal character of bacterial dysentery were observed in the country taken as a whole. However, in different climatic and geographical zones of the country the seasonal character of dysentery greatly varies from one zone to another and essentially differs from the seasonal character of dysentery morbidity, typical of the country as a whole for many years. The most pronounced manifestations of seasonal rises are observed in the Sahara zone. The seasonal character of dysentery is formed mainly by morbidity among patients belonging to 3 age groups. The seasonal rises of dysentery can be probably explained by the complex of social and climatic factors, as well as by the biological features of the causative agents of this disease.

[Prevention of toxoplasmoses].

Prophylaxis of toxoplasmosis consists of a complex of general medical and veterinary measures. Of importance is detection of latent forms of toxoplasmosis in pregnant women and their timely treatment. Thorough clinical and immunological examination of persons with prolonged diseases of obscure etiology is necessary. Suggestions are given for dispensary observation of persons who sustained the disease and had positive immunological reactions for toxoplasmosis. Materials on prophylaxis of hemotransfusion transmission of the infection are presented for the first time. A number of recommendations concerns measures of general organization and also planned prophylactic examination with the use of immunological methods of some groups of population with increased risk of infection.
