Opis:
Bacterial lysates stimulate the general immunity of the body in a non-specific way. They act on non-specific defense mechanisms, leading to an increase in type A antibody in mucous membranes, phagocytic activity and INF-ƴ production. They can also stimulate the production of specific antibodies against the bacterial antigens that make up the preparation. The oral immunomodulatory preparations with the best documented clinical efficacy available on the Polish market are Ismigen, Broncho-Vaxom, Ribomunyl and Luivac. They are all lysates of bacterial strains that most often cause respiratory tract infections. In many clinical trials, oral bacterial lysates have been shown to minimize the risk of recurrent respiratory infections in children and adults and reduce the need for antibiotics.

Opis:
Respiratory infections are a major health and economic problems in every country. Most infections are viral, bacterial in-fection but also are not rare. It should be emphasized that the respiratory tract infections are the cause of 20% of all med-ical consultations and 75% antibiotic treatment. To reduce the need for antibiotics, more and more attention is paid to the preparation increases the body’s resistance to bacterial infection. Non-specific multivalent vaccines containing killed at high temperature, bacterial cells or lysates. These preparations are non-specifically stimulate the overall immunity. They operate on the non-specific defense mechanisms, leading to increased antibody type IgA in secretions of the mu-cous membranes, phagocytic activity and IFN-γ. They may also stimulate the production of specific antibodies against bacterial antigens included in the formulation. Available on the Polish market oral preparations immunomodulatory of the best documented clinical efficacy are Luivac, Ribomunyl, Broncho-Vaxom and Ismigen. All lysates of bacterial strains are most often causing respiratory tract infections. Many clinical studies have shown that oral bacterial lysates reduce the risk of recurrent respiratory tract infections in adults and children and reduce the need for antibiotics.

Opis:
Bronchoscopy was introduced into clinical practice over 100 years ago. Due to technological advances, diagnostic capabilities of current bronchoscopy are not limited to the trachea and proximal bronchi but also include the peripheral airways as well as various anatomical structures located outside the bronchi. A wide range of available techniques that include bronchoalveolar lavage, protected microbiological brush, transbronchial biopsy of the lungs and mediastinal lymph nodes makes bronchoscopy useful in diagnosing various lower respiratory tract infections. For example, the collection of high quality biological samples for microbiological examination plays a crucial role when treating patients with nosocomial pneumonia. Bronchoscopy may provide the samples directly from the site of infection. In immunocompromised hosts bronchoscopy is routinely used as the diagnostic tool in lower respiratory tract infections. Due to implementation of novel therapies, the number of immunocompromised patients is steadily increasing, hence there are growing needs for effective diagnosis of opportunistic pulmonary infections. In the specific group of lung transplant recipients, bronchoscopy play a crucial role in monitoring the rejection process and also in differentiating between the rejection and pulmonary infections. Bronchoscopy is also useful in diagnosing tuberculosis or nontuberculous pulmonary infections. This particularly refers to patients who are unable to produce sputum for microbiological examination.

Opis:
Bordetella bronchiseptica is a widespread Gram-negative pathogen occurring in different mammal species. It is known to play a role in the etiology of infectious atrophic rhinitis of swine, canine kennel cough, respiratory syndromes of cats, rabbits and guinea pigs, and sporadic human cases have also been reported. The aim of this article is to present the occurrence of infections caused by these bacteria in domestic cats with respiratory symptoms, as well as to conduct a molecular analysis of the flaA gene B. bronchiseptica for the purpose of ascertaining whether cats become infected with one or more bacteria strains. B. bronchiseptica was isolated from the respiratory system of 16 out of 35 domestic cats with symptoms of respiratory tract infections. Polymorphism analysis of polymerase chain reaction products of B. bronchiseptica flaA was performed to reveal the possible differences in nucleotide sequences of the flagellin gene. The phylogenetic analysis of nucleotide sequences obtained during PCR indicated that the isolates of bacteria from our own studies are characterised by 100% homology of the analysed fragment of the flaA gene, which suggests maintenance of a single genotype of these microorganisms in the cat population. Moreover, the bacteria revealed full homology with reference strain B. bronchiseptica ATCC 4617, and 99.4% homology with strain B. parapertussis ATCC 15311. This indicates that the PCR optimised for the Bordetella spp. flaA gene, combined with sequencing of amplicons obtained in PCR, is an effective diagnostic method allowing differentiation of Bordetella spp. type microorganisms.

Opis:
The objective of the study was the evaluation of the frequency of occurrence of acute respiratory infections among rural population from the Lublin Region, and verifi cation of the appropriateness of the use of antibiotics in empirical fi rst-line therapy of these diseases. The analysis covered medical records concerning 1,839 patients selected from 27 rural health centres within the period of one year (1 September 2005–31 August 2006). As many as 656 patient visits were recorded, the reasons for which were qualifi ed by physicians as infections of the upper and lower airways. These disorders were diagnosed in 450 patients, which constituted 24.46% of the population examined. The following diagnoses were most frequently made: acute pharyngitis and tonsillitis (31.25% of the total number of diagnoses), acute upper respiratory infections of multiple and unspecifi ed sites (22.25%), and common cold (21.64%). Antibiotics were used in empirical fi rst-line therapy in as many as 82% of the total number of patients. The analysis showed that in the great majority of cases the use of antibiotics was inappropriate. If this situation persists, in the near future it will lead to an increase in the phenomenon of antibioticoresistance in Poland. In order to prevent this situation, it is necessary to carry out an extensive educational action concerning the hazardous effect of excessive use of antibiotics, both among physicians and the whole society.

Opis:
We compared three methods used microbial culturing for detection of ureaplasmas in endotracheal aspirate from 500 prematurely born neonates with respiratory disturbances: BioMerieux test, PCR and microbial culturing. Ureaplasmas were detected in respiratory tracts of 79 (16%) newborns. Correlation of the results of culture with those obtained with the BioMerieux kit, culture with PCR and BioMerieux kit with PCR was 97%, 89% and 90%, respectively. Sensitivity and specificity of PCR in comparison with culture was 86% and 98%, respectively, and of the BioMerieux kit 96% and 98%. PCR can be recommended in rapid diagnostics of respiratory infections in newborns suffering from respiratory disorders. It allows the detection of ureaplasmas in case of parallel infections and identification of their species.

Opis:
An estimated 50% of antibiotic prescriptions may be unjustified in the outpatient setting. Viruses are responsible for most acute respiratory tract infections. The viral infections are often self-limiting and only symptomatic treatment remains effective. Bacteria are involved in a small percentage of infections etiology in this area. In the case of a justified or documented suspicion of a bacterial infection, antibiotic therapy may be indicated. Based on the Polish „Recommendations for the management of non-hospital respiratory infections 2016”, the indications, the rules of choice, the appropriate dosing schedules and the therapy duration, in the most frequent upper respiratory tract infections in adults, have been presented. Implementation of the presented recommendations regarding our Polish epidemiological situation, will significantly reduce the tendency to abuse antibiotics, and thus will limit the spread of drug-resistant microorganisms.

Opis:
Respiratory tract infections are the most common communicable diseases, which include pharyngitis, otitis media, rhinosinusitis, laryngitis, bronchitis and pneumonia. Although the majority of pathogenic agents responsible for these conditions are cosmopolitan, the differences in frequency and severity of these diseases associated with climate and living conditions may appear. The aim of the study is to assess if there are significant differences in frequency and severity of respiratory tract infections in different countries. A survey, consisting of 49 questions involving the frequency of respiratory tract infections, antibiotics’ usage and demographic data was delivered to the users of a social network used to finding penfriends from abroad. Collected data was statistically analyzed and compared with climate conditions and economic indices in different countries. 462 respondents, aged 12-79 (mean age 25,15 ± 9,43, median 23) from 119 countries submitted their answers. First raw, preliminary data describe a prevalence of different types of respiratory tract infections and commonness of antibiotic therapy. This initial report with preliminary results of the survey should be a first step towards determining the differences in frequency and severity of respiratory tract infections, as well as in antibiotic treatment. Data gained during the survey need further analysis.

Opis:
Self-medication is a procedure that is increasingly eagerly chosen by people all over the world, especially in common conditions (e.g. infections of upper respiratory tract). The main objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of self-medication and identify the sources of knowledge used by Polish society in searching for information on OTC medicines. The study was conducted in the group of 252 Internet users at working age (18-64 years) living in Poland (women n=208; 82.5%, men m=44; 17.5%) and used an original questionnaire consisting of 29 questions available on Internet from December 2016 to February 2017. According to the obtained results self-treatment was undertaken by 90.08% of Poles. Using OTC products was most prevalent among people with university education (p=0.01) and without children (p=0.03). Most popular source of knowledge on self-medication was own experience (n=149; 59.1%) and pharmacists’ advice (n=148; 58.7%). TV commercials were considered as unimportant for most of respondents (54.3%). Young women (18-26 years) most often used Internet to search for information about OTC drugs (p=0.03), young male trusted own experience (p=0.03) and men from older age groups (p=0.04) advice of a pharmacist. Self-medication can characterized as prevalent in Poland. People with lower levels of education used OTC medicines less often and therefore might benefit from stronger support of professionals.

Opis:
Background Healthcare workers (HCWs) are at high risk for exposure to upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) and influenza-like illnesses (ILIs). The present study aimed to surveil URTIs and ILIs and their impact among the Department of Pediatric Infectious Diseases in Wroclaw employees and evaluate their humoral response to influenza. Material and Methods Thirty-six HCWs participated in the first season and 32 HCWs in the second season during years of the study. The authors carried out a URTI/ILI surveillance, and all HCWs were asked to complete a weekly report during 2 influenza seasons: 2016/2017 (S1) and 2017/2018 (S2). In S1 both IgG and IgM antibodies against influenza A and B were assessed. The HCWs with symptoms of ILI were encouraged to undergo PCR tests for influenza. Results No significant differences in reporting URTI were found among vaccinated and non-vaccinated HCWs and HCWs and the control group. Depending on the year 5.5–17.2% of HCWs were treated with antibiotics because of URTI. In the study 58.7% of participants in S1 and 66.7% in S2 decide to work despite the URTI symptoms. There was no statistical relationship between the concentration of anti-influenza IgG and the number of URTIs and ILIs reported. Only vaccinated were willing to undergo voluntary influenza testing. Conclusions The URTI and ILI occur commonly in HCWs, and HCWs contract URTIs as often as the control group. Despite their medical education, HCWs work with the symptoms of infection and overuse antibiotics to treat the URTI. Serology testing is not able to follow the infection’s dynamics or identify the people immune to the influenza-like illness. The diagnostic value of IgM antibodies in acute influenza infection is negligible. Vaccinated HCWs are more focused on their health and are more willing to undergo influenza tests.
