Ascites is an ominous finding after kidney transplantation. It occurs either as a result of technical complication of the transplant procedure or from medical reasons that include portal hypertension, graft rejection and other causes (1, 2). Here in are described a case of ascites that occurred after successful kidney transplantation. Kidney re-transplantation alone or combined heart and kidney transplantation were possible options for him. Finally, a review of published cases of ascites that occurred after kidney transplantation and treatment of putative nephrogenic ascites (NA) is presented.

From pea plants (Pisum sativum) with necrotic stem streaking a virus (E207) was isolated and readily transmitted by sap to all 30 pea cuttivars tested. In most of these infection was latent. Trijolium inearnatum, T.repens and Vicia faba sometimes reacted with systemic symptoms. Local lesions were rarely formed in two Chenopodium spp., Phaseolus vulgaris and V.Jaba and more often in (7. album, C. amaranticolor, C. quinoa and Gomphrena globosa. The other 6 hosts of the 32 plant species tested in total did not produce symptoms.Pea 'Koroza' and V.faba 'Compacta' reacted differentially to the virus and to two strains of red clover vein mosaic virus (RCVMV: RK31 and P42) and to Wisconsin pea streak virus (WPSV) used for comparison.Its ageing in vitro was 3-5 days, thermal inactivation point 60-65 ~ and dilution end-point 103-j04.The virus was inefficiently transmitted in the non-persistent manner by Acyrthosiphon pisum and Aphis fabae.In cross-protection tests the virus was found to be closely related to the two strains of RCVMV, but not to WPSV. The latter two viruses proved to be distantly related.The four virus isolates were purified from pea by clarification with diethyl ether and carbon tetrachloride, followed by differential cemrifugation and sucrose-gradient centrifugation in a zonal rotor. Sedimentation coefficients were 156 for E207, 159 for RCVMV-RK31, 163 for RCVMV-P42 and 160 for WPSV. E207 and WPSV were more stable than RK31 and P42.Serologically E207 could not be distinguished from both strains of RCVMV, whereas it differed considerably from WPSV, potato virus S and chrysanthemum virus B.In crude sap of pea plants, E207 and WPSV occurred in extremely high concentration and could be rapidly diagnosed with the electron microscope. They could easily be distinguished in particle tength (circa 670 and 630 rim, respectively), even in mixed preparations. RK31 and P42 occurred in much lower concentrations, but were indistinguishable from E207 in particle lengths.It is concluded that E207 is a new highly deviating strain of RCVMV. The results obtained here further support the distinction between the red clover vein mosaic virus and pea streak virus.

The aim of this work is to draw the attention of otorhinolaryngologists to the advantages of early conservative treatment of children with hypertrophy of the nasopharyngeal tonsil - adenoids. In childhood, a significant part of the protective and informational functions lies on the pharyngeal tonsil, since it is in the path of inhaled air. Unfavourable environmental conditions exacerbate its functional failure. Pathology of the lymphopharyngeal ring is highly prevalent and occupies a leading place among ENT diseases in children. Each person has a certain own microflora on the nasal mucosa from birth. In most cases, monoflora is determined on the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity, and only 2-3% is due to the combination of two types of microbial and fungal flora. For more than twenty years, we have been using the tactics of a sparing effect on the mucous membrane when using medicinal mixtures on a protective basis. Conservative treatment of 245 children aged 3 to 6 years with grade 1 – 2 adenoiditis was carried out, which made it possible to avoid surgical intervention in this group of children. When choosing a drug mixture, the sensitivity of the microflora of the patient’s nasal cavity was considered according to the results of a smear from the mucous membrane. Adenoidectomy is an operation with potentially undesirable consequences for the whole body, therefore, effective timely conservative therapy can reduce the risks and harms of surgery for pediatric patients.
