Abstract
It has been established that the clinical picture of rotavirus infection in young children with an initially low number of immunocompetent cells expressing TLR-3 does not differ significantly from that in patients with an initially high the number of cells expressing TLR-3.
When analyzing the ongoing treatment, it turned out that antibiotic therapy, due to the activation of bacterial microflora, was used only in children with an initially low number of immunocompetent cells expressing TLR-3. In the same group of patients, during follow-up observation for 6-12 months after the transferred rotavirus infection, the development of atopic dermatitis and food allergy was noted.

Purpose — to characterize the clinical picture and immune status of children with HIV infection, taking into account the presence of congenital cytomegalovirus infection (CMVI).
Research methods. Conducted clinical and laboratory examination 91 children with HIV infection with congenital CMVI (20; group I) and without it (71; group II).
Results. The anamnestic risk groups for congenital CMVI on the part of the mother included age over 30 years (55%), drug use (75%), chronic metroendometritis (85%), colpitis (55%), features of HIV status (secondary disease stage 4 — in 20%, CD4-lymphocyte count 0.5 x 109/l or less in 85%, HIV blood viral load 50 kop/ml or more in 80%, pregnancy pathology (threat of miscarriage in 50%, developmental delay fetus — in 65%), lack of chemoprophylaxis for vertical transmission of HIV (55%). The clinical criteria for diagnosing congenital CMVI in newborns included prematurity (40%), congenital malformations (45%), intrauterine growth retardation (65%), jaundice syndrome (50%), and perinatal CNS damage (80%). Children with congenital CMVI at the age of three months developed multiple organ pathology — lymphadenopathy (80%), hepatomegaly (65%), splenomegaly (40%), underweight (75%), pneumonia (60%), hepatitis (30%) , pancreatitis (15%), enterocolitis (20%), nephritis (25%), carditis (20%), encephalitis (15%), chorioretinitis (20%), anemia (60%), thrombocytopenia (15%).
A severe immunodeficiency state with a predominant violation of the T-cell link was revealed. A high titer of CMV was found in biological materials, IgG antibodies in the blood.
Conclusion. The use of clinical and laboratory criteria makes it possible to timely diagnose congenital CMVI in children with HIV infection and prescribe complex therapy.

Purpose: to study the clinical and epidemiological features of the course of a new coronavirus infection in children of different ages undergoing outpatient treatment.
Study participants included 812 children with COVID-19 aged 1 month and older. up to 17 years old who were on outpatient treatment in the children’s polyclinic of the city of Kirov from July to December 2021. The mean age of patients with COVID-19 was 5.
9 ± 1.1 years. Among the diseased children of early age was 28%, adolescents — 16%. In 76% of cases, contact with patients with a new coronavirus infection was detected, mainly in the family, as well as in educational institutions. In 70% of cases, an early request for medical help was registered — in the first three days of illness. In most cases (89%), a mild severity of the disease with the development of subfebrile fever and pharyngitis was established. The phenomena of rhinitis were recorded in 20% of cases. 7% of children complained of dry cough. Damage to the lung tissue (WG1) was detected in 5% of patients, gastrointestinal tract — 5%. In adolescents, the phenomena of rhinitis, pharyngitis, dry cough were less common than in other age groups. 11% of patients were hospitalized. For etiotropic therapy, recombinant interferon alfa-2b and umifenovir were used. All children recovered within 7-10 days from the onset of the disease.

Annotation
A key component of the successful treatment of ixodid tick-borne borreliosis (ITB) is its early diagnosis, an important criterion for which is the data of the epidemiological history.
The aim of the work is to analyze the data of epidemiological anamnesis in patients with ITB in outpatient settings in Moscow.
Materials and methods. A retrospective, non-randomized, single-center cohort study was conducted based on the analysis of data from 660 outpatient records of patients consulted by an infectious disease specialist at the ICH No. 1 DZM on the recommendation of a local doctor in connection with tick bite and/or suspected ITB. To analyze the epidemiological history, patients were divided by age and the presence or absence of ITB.
Confirmation of the diagnosis of ITB was carried out according to clinical and/or laboratory criteria using enzyme immunoassay and immune blot methods. Results. We have updated the epidemiological features of ITB for Moscow, such as the number of cases in the administrative districts of Moscow, the geography and seasonality of tick attacks. The data of epidemiological anamnesis in age groups were compared. Among children, compared with adults, appeals for tick bites without the development of ITB predominate, and tick bites on the scalp are significantly more common. In the anamnesis, in patients with ITB, there was an indication of visiting tick habitats much more often than an indication of the fact of sucking a tick.
Conclusion. The data obtained by us clarify the epidemiological features of ixodid tick-borne borreliosis for residents of Moscow. In clinical diagnostics, in the absence of a history of indications of tick bite, an informative sign is a visit to its habitats, including not only trips to wooded areas, but also to suburban areas, to park areas.
Considering the peculiarities of localization of tick suction, when searching for erythema migrans in children, it is imperative to examine the scalp.

Annotation
The purpose of the study: to study the features of the cytokine status in the chronic course of cytomegalovirus infection in children of the first year of life against the background of hypoxic-ischemic CNS damage.
Research methods: 108 newborns with cytomegalovirus infection occurring against the background of perinatal hypoxic-ischemic lesions of the central unequal system were examined. All observed patients immediately after the diagnosis of cytomegalovirus infection underwent an immunological examination, including the determination of the levels of interferon-alpha (IFN-α) and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), the level of interleukins — 2 and 4 (IL-2 and IL-4), the factor tumor necrosis alpha human (TNF-α) in blood serum was determined by enzyme immunoassay using a set of reagents ProConIF2 plus, ProConIfgamma, ProConTNFα (OOO «Protein contour», Russia, St. Petersburg) at the age of 1 and 6 months of life. The observation groups consisted of 78 children (72.2%) with an acute course of the disease (Group 1) and 30 children (27.3%) with a chronic course (Group 2). The control group consisted of 15 newborns without herpesvirus infection.
Results. Of the totality of the studied cytokines, statistically significant for the chronic course of cytomegalovirus infection (CMVI) in children of the first year of life against the background of hypoxic-ischemic CNS damage were found: IL-2 and IFN-γ.
It was found that in children with a persistent low level of IFN-γ and an increased level of IL-4 in the blood serum at the age of 6 months, there was a chronic course of cytomegalovirus infection against the background of perinatal hypoxic-ischemic CNS damage.
A decrease in IFN-γ production indicates a congenital or acquired deficiency of the interferon system and can be considered as an indication for long-term interferon replacement therapy.

Annotation
Clinical and laboratory examination of 62 children aged 10-17 years who were vaccinated against hepatitis B according to the standard scheme (0-1-6 months) in the first year of life strictly according to the National Immunization Schedule in a standard dose (10 µg of recombinant HBsAg) with a monocomponent vaccine.
The majority of children (58%) had indicators of HBsAg seroconversion — anti-HBs antibodies. This indicates the fact of long-lasting Grund immunity — 10–17 years after timely 3-fold immunization against hepatitis B according to the standard scheme in the absence of Booster immunization (revaccination) in subsequent age periods, including children with a aggravated premorbid background (87, 1% among those observed). Since there were children with invasive medical interventions (50%) among the observed, the established fact reflects the protective effect of standard Grund immunization even in children at risk with a positive parenteral anamnesis. At the same time, it was found that after triple immunization against hepatitis B according to the standard scheme in the first year of life, among 62 children aged 10-17 years, the proportion of seronegatives was 42%. Low levels of antibodies (10-100 IU/l) were detected in 43% of cases, high levels (100-1000 IU/l) in 15% of cases. None of the children had antibody levels greater than >1000 IU/L.
These results require the development of new approaches to the immunization of children against hepatitis B with mandatory revaccination at an older age.

The ongoing pandemic of a new coronavirus infection allows us to discover new information about the clinical course of the disease. Despite rarer registration and mild COVID-19in children, there are data on more severe manifestations, including damage to the cardiovascular system. Exposure to SARS-CoV-2 can lead to the development of myocarditis, arrhythmias, heart failure, etc.
According to the Omsk Infectious Diseases Hospital, heart changes were recorded in 5.8% of hospitalized children with COVID-19. The article presents a clinical case of a new coronavirus infection in a 15-year-old child who was treated in the infectious diseases hospital of the State Children’s Clinical Hospital No. 3 in Omsk. The diagnosis was confirmed by examining nasopharyngeal swabs for the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA by PCR. A feature of the course of infection in this patient was the development of myocarditis against the background of a disease of moderate severity without the presence of comorbid pathology.

Annotation
Natural focal infections with transmissible transmission caused by viruses West Nile Fever (WNF), Batai, Inko, Sindbis, Tyaginya are registered, in various territories of Russia in the form of sporadic cases, are characterized by a polymorphism of clinical symptoms, from inapparent forms to severe ones, occurring with CNS damage (meningitis, meningoencephalitis), which makes it difficult to diagnose and treat these diseases in a timely manner.
Purpose: to describe our own clinical observations of five cases of arbovirus fevers.
Results. Arboviral fevers (WFN, Batai, Inko, Tyaginya) in the five clinical cases we cited proceeded in two clinical forms: catarrhal with CSF hypertension syndrome, febrile fever and intense headache, vomiting in the absence of signs of inflammation in the CSF; and with damage to the central nervous system (meningitis).
Catarrhal forms of arboviral fevers must be differentiated from SARS, influenza, mononucleosis. Arbovirus fevers occurring with CNS lesions (meningitis) had a significant similarity with enteroviral meningitis, both in terms of seasonality and clinical symptoms.
Conclusion. In the territories of Russia endemic for mosquito fevers in the summer season, febrile patients with cerebral symptoms and / or meningeal symptoms should be examined for a group of arbovirus fevers.
