الوصف: Background. Dirofilariasis is a vector-borne helminthiasis that tends to expand spatial boundaries in areas with temperate and cold climates. In the Voronezh oblast, located in the Central Black Earth Region of the Russian Federation there were previously isolated reports of cases of dirofilariasis in humans and dogs, but this issue was not specifically studied.Aims. To determine the degree of infection of dogs with Dirofilaria immitis and Dirofilaria repens in the Voronezh oblast in order to determine the level of epidemiological risk.Materials and methods. For seven years, targeted work was carried out to study the spread of different types of dirofilariae in dogs in the Voronezh region. Blood from 3 498 dogs of different breeds, ages, conditions of keeping and household use was examined. Dirofilaria larvae were counted using the Fuchs-Rosenthal camera. The type of dirofilaria larvae isolated from the blood of dogs was determined by the histochemical method. The antigen of the imaginal form of D. immitis was detected using a chromatographic test system the ImmunoRun Antigen Detection Kit Caninae Heartworm Biogal chromatographic test system (Israel). Statistical processing of the material was carried out in the Microsoft Excel 2010 program. Studies were carried out with the consent of animal owners and in accordance with the European Convention for the Protection of Vertebral Animals used for experimental and other scientific purposes (Strasbourg, 1986).Results. As a result of the conducted studies, it was found that in the Voronezh oblast, the average infection of domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) with dirofilariasis is 14.14 ± 0.31 %. The indicator depends on the conditions of keeping animals and makes 27.15 % in stray dogs, 25.26 % – in service dogs and 10.54 % – in apartment dogs. In service dogs, the species D. repens occurs in 52.39 % of cases, D. immitis – in 42.95 %, mixtinvasia – in 4.80 % of cases. In stray dogs, the species D. repens prevails (80.10 %). The second type of D. immitis was established in 10.0 % of cases. At the same time, both types were also established in 10.0 % of cases. The maximum number of cases of dirofilariasis occurs in urban dogs (65.87 %), which is due to the high density of their population and close contact with the vector of transmission in urbanized areas. The seasonal dynamics of infestation is determined by the year-round detection of cases with a peak in October (46.77 %). The number of cases of dirofilariasis increases with age, in dogs from one to six years old it reaches maximum of 63.26 %. There is an epidemiological risk of dirofilariasis in the Voronezh oblast. This is due to the existence and active functioning of synanthropic and natural foci of invasion on the territory of the Voronezh oblast.

الوصف: In 2018, between June14 and July 15, final matches of the FIFA World Cup-2018 were held in 11 cities of the Russian Federation. That event was the biggest mass event with international participation in the history of Russia. During the period, in the process of sanitary-epidemiological welfare provision, developed earlier scintific-and-practical achievementds for prevention of emergency situations of sanitary-epidemiologoical character were implemented to the fullest extent. Objective of the study – analysis of evolution of the developed in Russia scientifically-substantiated approaches in the sphere of sanitary-epidemiological welfare provision of mass events and aggregation of the results of their implementation during preparation and holding of FIFA World-Cup-2018. Utilized were information-analytical materials from the Rospotrebnadzor Administrations by the constituent entities of the Russian Federatuion, Centers of Hygiene and Epidemiology in the entities of the Russian Federation, RusRAPI “Microbe” of the Rospotrebnadzor, data from Organizing Committee “Russia-2018”, Federal Turism Agency, information published in periodical press. Scientifically substantiated model of sanitary-epidemiological welfare provision during mass events was developed in the Russian Federation. It includes expert evaluation and quantification of potential epidemic hazard of mass event which allows for targeted prophylactic and anti-epidemic measures with rationalized loads and adequate frequency of repeat. The paper discusses the complex of measures carried out during preparation and holding of FIFA World Cup-2018 by the functional areas: sanitary protection of the territory; epidemiological surveillnace over relevant anthropozoonotic, natural-focal zoonotic, sapronotic infectious diseaseas; sanitary surveillance over communal facilities, catering facilities, sites of accomodation of the participants and guests; sanitary-hygienic monitoring of ambient environment objects; provision of anti-epidemic preparadeness and readiness of the Rospotrebnadzor authorities and institutions and medical organizations; provision of readiness of laboratory facilities; involvement of additional forces and capacities and interagency cooperation in response to emergency situations of sanitary-epidemiological character.

This study examined the association between epidemiological and self-perceived risks of contracting sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)/HIV among young African Americans (AAs) and the multilevel factors identified using ecodevelopmental theory. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on wave 1 data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health comprising 1,619 AA youth aged 14–18 years. Epidemiological and self-perceived HIV-risk indices were developed and their associations with ecodevelopmental system parameters evaluated. Results: Significant discordance (P

الوصف: Background The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) began in December 2019 and continues to spread worldwide. Rapid and accurate identification of suspected cases is critical in slowing spread of the virus that causes the disease. We aimed to highlight discrepancies in the various criteria used by international agencies and highly impacted individual countries around the world. Methods We reviewed the criteria for identifying a suspected case of COVID-19 used by two international public health agencies and 10 countries across Asia, Europe, and North America. The criteria included information on the clinical causes of illness and epidemiological risk factors. Non-English language guidelines were translated into English by a co-author who is fluent in that particular language. Results Although most criteria are modifications of World Health Organization recommendations, the specific clinical features and epidemiological risks for triggering evaluation of patients with suspected COVID-19 differed widely among countries. The rationale for these differences may be related to each country’s resources, politics, experience with previous outbreaks or pandemics, health insurance system, COVID-19 outbreak severity, and other undetermined factors. Conclusion We found no consensus regarding the best diagnostic criteria for identifying a suspected case of COVID-19.

الوصف: Background: Identifying risk factors for Triatominae infestation is essential for the development of vector control interventions. Methods: To determine the intra- and peridomiciliary risk factors associated with triatomine infestation, a cross-sectional analytical study was carried out with random cluster sampling in two stages, which included the identification of risk factors by survey and direct observation, as well as the search and capture of triatomines. The detection of trypanosomes in triatomines was carried out by observing the rectal content and then by conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results: In 21 of the 207 houses inspected, 13 specimens of R. colombiensis and 19 specimens of P. geniculatus were found. Entomological indices included: dispersion 36%, infestation 10%, infection 65%, colonization 4.7%, density 15%, and concentration 152%. An association was found between the presence of Triatominae and the existence of branches and fissures in the floors, as well as with the presence of accumulated objects and with knowledge about Chagas disease. The risk of having triatomines in urban homes is 5.7 times higher than the risk in rural areas [confidence interval (CI) 0.508–67.567]; 6.6 times in houses with cracked soil (CI 0.555–81.994), 6 times in houses located near caneys (CI 0.820–44.781), and 6.16 times with accumulated objects (CI 1.542–39.238). Conclusion: Chagas disease is a complex problem that requires control based on the vector’s elimination or surveillance, which implies identifying species and their distribution, generating alerts, knowledge, and awareness in the population. It is necessary to intensify surveillance activities for the event, especially in changing aspects of Chagas diseases’ transmission dynamics, such as urbanization and the type of housing associated with the vector’s presence.
