The search for an aetiology of central nervous system (CNS) lesions In HIV patients can be extremely challenging. ⋯ Accurate retrospective identification of the aetiology of CNS lesions combined with assessing in vivo characterisation of the pathological process plays an essential role in subsequent formation of diagnostic approaches in pathologies of the CNS in HIV-patients.

Find the prevalence of CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681; rs11572080), PTGS-1 (rs10306135; rs12353214) and PTGS-2 (rs20417) alleles and genotypes in four ethnic groups among Laks, Avars, Dargins and Kumyks. ⋯ The study of CYP2C8 and PTGS-1 and 2 gene polymorphisms is promising for predicting the effectiveness and safety of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug therapy, due to the high prevalence of these polymorphisms in ethnic groups in the North Caucasus.

To study the activity of neutrophilic granulocytes in patients with opisthorchiasis, depending on the severity of liver fibrosis. ⋯ These results provide new information to explain the mechanisms of liver fibrosis in patients opisthorchiasis and create opportunities for the development of diagnostics and preventive technologies.

To assess changes in the composition of the microflora of the upper respiratory tract and indicators of cellular immunity 1 year after the administration of 13-valent conjugated pneumococcal vaccine (PCV13) in adult HIV-infected patients. ⋯ Thus, immunoprophylaxis with PCV13 in adult HIV-infected patients leads to a decrease in the carriage of S. pneumoniae, and also promotes the stimulation of the T-cell link of the immune system and stimulates the formation of immunological memory cells.
