Psittacosis – a zooanthroponosis infection. In humans, the disease can manifest atypical pneumonia, enteritis, peritonitis, encephalitis. In parrots the disease starts with loss of appetite, drowsiness, weakness, fever, appearance of conjunctivitis, rhinitis and diarrhea. The causative agent of psittacosis in parrots are obligate intracellular microorganism Chlamydophila psittaci, which enters the body through the epithelium of the mucous membranes of respiratory tract. Its reproduction and accumulation occurs in the epithelial, and lymphoid reticulohistiocytosis cells. Chlamydia capable to long time cellular localization, can penetrate into the various organs and systems: the lungs, the nervous, cardiovascular system, liver. Parrot, who had been ill for psittacosis, is usually long remain carriers of Chlamydia. This article contains the definition of «psittacosis» as the disease, etiology, pathogenesis, main clinical features of parrots, pathological changes, especially the diagnosis, treatment and prevention. This materials are can help to owners of parrot and veterinary professionals to understand the disease, clinical signs, modern methods of diagnosis, prevention and therapy of psittacosis.

Viral diseases of cacti (Cactaceae Juss.)

There are about 220 genera and 3000 species in Cactaceae family. Since its discovery in XV cacti gained much popularity among botanists, gardeners and collectors because of unusual and highly decorative appearance. Cactus viruses are known for about a century now. The first definitive indication came in 1951 in Europe. Currently, 13 viruses are known to infect plants of Cactaceae family: five members of the genus Potexvirus (CVX, OpVX, SchVX, ZyVX and PiVX), four members of the genus Tobamovirus (SOV, TMV, CMMoV and RCNaV), one representative of the Carlavirus (CV-2), one representative of the Carmovirus (SgCV) and two representatives of the genus Tospovirus (TSWV and INSV). Potexviruses are best described among the viruses infecting Cactaceous plants. Some infections are mostly symptomless, when others demonstrate both external and internal symptoms. Externally symptoms include chlorotic rings and spots on the pads of Opuntia sp., reddening of the fronds of the Zygocactus sp., etc. Occasionally more severe symptoms, such as bending, marked yellowing and dieback of stems occur. The article discusses the viruses infecting Cactaceae family members, their biological characteristics, geographical distribution and history of their discovery. It covers the problem of genetic differentiation between some Asian and European isolates of potexviruses, and describes peculiarities of mono- and co-infections in different species of cacti. The article also considers the practical value of cacti for the gardening and exemplifies the use of their biologically active substances in medicine and pharmaceutical industry. Viral infections can damage cacti rendering raw material inapplicable for practical use. Hence it is necessary to apply not only technical protective measures, but also timely application of modern methods of diagnosis and the establishment of diversity of viruses circulating in the collections.

Modern principles of diagnosis and treatment paraganglioms (hemodektom ) neck

In this review, the authors have put forward modern principles of diagnosis and treatment of paraganglioma (chemodectoma) of neck. The analysis of data in the literature revealed that paraganglioma occurs with a frequency of 0.01 % of all cancers of the head and neck. The etiology and pathogenesis of the disease is not completely understood till date. Paraganglioma is often misdiagnosed. The clinical picture is also diverse. Modern methods of diagnosis include CT, MRI with visualization of vessels of the head and neck , as well as traditional methods like ultrasonic diagnostic angiography with the introduction of contrast medium.

Mycoplasma Contamination of Cell Cultures: Vesicular Traffic in Bacteria and Control over Infectious Agents

Cell cultures are subject to contamination either with cells of other cultures or with microorganisms, including fungi, viruses, and bacteria. Mycoplasma contamination of cell cultures is of particular importance. Since cell cultures are used for the production of vaccines and physiologically active compounds, designing a system for controlling contaminants becomes topical for fundamental science and biotechnological production. The discovery of extracellular membrane vesicles in mycoplasmas makes it necessary to take into consideration the bacterial vesicular traffic in systems designed for controlling infectious agents. The extracellular vesicles of bacteria mediate the traffic of proteins and genes, participate in cell-to-cell interactions, as well as in the pathogenesis and development of resistance to antibiotics. The present review discusses the features of mycoplasmas, their extracellular vesicles, and the interaction between contaminants and eukaryotic cells. Furthermore, it provides an analysis of the problems associated with modern methods of diagnosis and eradication of mycoplasma contamination from cell cultures and prospects for their solution.

Current state of diagnostic and treatment of osteoporosis in real-life clinical practice (a pilot study)

We report the results of a pilot study on physician awareness of modern diagnostic methods and drug therapy of osteoporosis (OP) and the use of this knowledge in daily practice. A pilot survey among physicians demonstrated that experts (rheumatologists, endocrinologists, etc.) have a high level of awareness of the OP problem and successfully use this knowledge in daily practice (modern diagnosis, prevention, and treatment methods). They widely prescribe original drugs and certain generics that were shown to be effective in post-marketing surveillance. Limitations of the study: 1) only physicians dealing with diagnosis and treatment of OP were surveyed; hence, the conclusions of this study are valid only for this group of physicians; 2) only physicians working in large cities who can use modern diagnosis methods (densitometry; determination of bone turnover markers) participated in the study; 3) Prolia medication, which has been used in Russia since 2013, was not taken into account in the questionnaire.
