Actually one of the main tasks of health workers in the field of the tropical diseases prevention (malaria) is early detection of malaria imported cases and efficacious treatment. In order to prevent the re-establishment of local malaria transmission by Anopheles mosquitoes from imported malaria cases, and fatal cases of disease there is develop and implement the Case Management Protocol of malaria diagnosis and treatment (2014, 2019) based on long-term experience of epidemiologists and clinicians, taking into account recommendations of WHO (2013, 2015). In this article the main principles of diagnosis and treatment of different malaria species Plasmodium falciparumand Plasmodium vivax-malaria, prophylaxis measures of autochthonous cases from imported cases of the word endemic region are discussed.

The problem of global expansion of multidrug-resistant nosocomial infections pathogens is under special attention at the moment. Antibiotic resistance increasing give us the limited treatment options. This problem is particularly acute for transplant clinics, because of patients need lifelong immunosuppressive therapy. ⋯ The purpose of this article is analysis carbapenem resistance dynamics of Klebsiella spp., Acinetobacter spp., Pseudomonas spp. and Staphylococcus spp. isolated from the blood of recipients of donor organs from 2009 to 2019 in the Shumakov National Medical Research Center of Transplantology and Artificial Organs. A significant annual decrease of carbapenem-sensitive strains of Klebsiella spp. and Acinetobacter spp. are shown. The study of a distinctive pathogen resistance profile specific to each institution can help one in selecting an adequate antimicrobial strategy and is an effective predictive tool for controlling the growth of multidrug-resistant microorganisms.

Meta Analysis
[Helicobacter pylori resistance in the Russian Federation: a meta-analysis of studies over the past 10 years].
Systematization of data on antibiotic resistance of Helicobacter pylori in Russia over the past 10 years. ⋯ This meta-analysis is the first analytical work that allows objectifying the current structure of H. pylori antibiotic resistance in the Russian Federation. The data obtained in the analysis of publications over the past 10 years indicate a low resistance of the microorganism to clarithromycin (less than the regulated threshold of 15%), which allows us to consider the triple regimen of eradication therapy as a first-line therapy in our country.

The paper presents the case of the right-sided inguinal inflammation of a lymph node as a result of invasion of Dirofilaria repens, the parasitic pathogen of subcutaneous dirofilariasis in animals of the canine family. The diagnosis was verified on the basis of the parallel application of morphological studies of cross sections of the nematode in histological samples and the molecular biological method polymerase chain reaction of scrapings of histological material. ⋯ Only isolated cases of atypical localization of D. repens are described: in the organs of the chest, cervical lymphatic node in the spermatic cord and epididymis, which led to pseudotumor formations that needed to be differentiated with neoplastic processes. This case is of great interest to experts of various fields (surgeons, oncologists, infectious disease specialists and pathologists), primarily in the differential diagnosis of malignant neoplasms of the lymphatic system.

To study the clinical course, diagnosis of pertussis in pregnant women. ⋯ The course of whooping cough in pregnant women is characterized by a typical symptom complex. To improve the verification of the diagnosis, it is advisable to use modern laboratory tests (PCR, ELISA).
