To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of antiviral drug riamilovir in patients with acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) of non-coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) etiology with different dosing regimens. ⋯ Riamilovir has shown clinical efficacy and a good safety profile in in both treatment regimens. The dosage regimen of 1250 mg per day led to more significant clinical effects and to 100% elimination of ARVI pathogens in the study group by the 6th day of hospitalization.

According to the "Federal Law on the Fundamentals of Protection of the Public Health", medical care for patients should be provided in accordance with National Russian guidelines for the relevant nosology, which are based on the principles of evidence-based medicine. The article presents an analysis of the compliance with the completeness of implementation of National Russian guidelines in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM 2) in real clinical practice. ⋯ Incomplete compliance with the guidelines on the frequency of measuring glycated hemoglobin, the rate of intensification of hypoglycemic therapy, and the appointment of new classes of hypoglycemic drugs was established. Possible reasons for the identified discrepancies between real practice and guidelines requirements are discussed, as well as possible measures to overcome these discrepancies.

Case Reports
[Neurological manifestations of hypoparathyroidism: diagnostic difficulties. Case report].
Hypoparathyroidism is a rare condition characterized by reduced production of parathyroid hormone or tissue resistance which leads to hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia. Neurological manifestations often occur as the first symptoms of hypoparathyroidism and are characterized by a wide variety of symptoms of both the central and peripheral nervous systems dysfunction, which requires a differential diagnosis with a wide range of neurological diseases. ⋯ In another case with a long-term chronic course of postoperative hypoparathyroidism, the patient's adaptation to severe hypocalcemia was noted; the clinical features were dominated by cerebral syndromes due to brain structures calcification (Fahr's syndrome). Possible reasons for late diagnosis of hypoparathyroidism, the importance of active detection of symptoms of neuromuscular hyperexcitability and laboratory testing of phosphorus and calcium metabolism are discussed.

Leonid Vasilyevich Sobolev is an outstanding pathologist, whose name definitely should occupy an honorable place in the galaxy of great scientists of Russia. However, his name was undeservedly forgotten, and the role of his work was underestimated. This Russian scientist made the most important discovery: he proved in an experiment that it is the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas that secrete a humoral regulator, "factor X", the deficiency of which leads to diabetes mellitus. ⋯ However, there is every reason to believe that the discovery of F. G. Banting, who repeated a series of experiments by Leonid Vasilyevich Sobolev, is, in fact, secondary, which is the research subject in this paper.
