Item type:Publication, Prevalence of Rotaviruses in the Etiology of Acute Diarrhea in Young Children, Clinical forms, Extraintestinal Manifestations and Complications(Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts/Sciendo, 2020-12-08); ; ; ; Rotavirus is highly contagious factor with dominant feces-oral transmission. Because it is stable in external environment, transmission clusters are possible by close contact, ingestion of contaminated water or food or contact with contaminated surfaces. It survives within hours and days on hands and contaminated surfaces. This makes it the most common enteric and nosocomial pathogen in the world, especially in early childhood. In addition to the rapid dehydration with pronounced electrolyte disturbances, numerous extraintestinal possibilities have been recorded in the clinical picture, which emphasizes the need for prevention of this disease.In the period from 1.02.2018 to 31.01.2020 at the Clinic for Infectious diseases were treated 1060 patients with diarrheal disease, of which 502 children (47.36%). Rotavirus etiology was confirmed in 23.30% of the children. According to the protocols, laboratory and biochemical investigations were done to all 117 children, with tracking parameters and their dynamics of admission and discharge from the hospital. Most of the children, 84 (82.0 6%) are from urban areas, with a more confirmed epidemiological survey of 59 (42.00%). The average age of the children was 8 months, with a small percentage of children on maternal food (breastfed 25, i.e. 21.37%), with high febrile admission in 99% of children with an average temperature of 38.5oC and an average febrile duration of 4 days, with an average of 7 (+ 2.49) of stools and 5 (+ 2.12) of vomiting. There was a significant difference in hematocrit, leukocyte, electrolyte, glycaemia, and CRP values on admission and discharge. There was predominant isonatremic dehydration, and the compensatory mechanisms followed by the values of the electrolytes ABS, Ph, BE showed a tendency to maintain within the physiological limits. The clinical picture of extraintestinal manifestations included bronchitis, mesenteric lymphadenitis, upper respiratory infections and rash.Rotavirus infection is a serious health and economic problem in our country, so it needs continuous prevention and monitoring in order to reduce the incidence, and thus the need for hospitalization and cure of rotavirus disease. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Visceral Leishmaniasis in the Republic of North Macedonia: A Retrospective Cohort Study(Galenos Yayinevi, 2025-11-11); ; Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a systemic protozoan vector-borne disease and represents the most severe clinical form of leishmaniasis, with fatal outcomes if left untreated. This study aimed to evaluate the key epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory findings, treatment options, and outcomes in patients with VL. Materials and Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 84 patients diagnosed and treated for VL at the University Hospital for Infectious Diseases in Skopje, Republic of North Macedonia (RNM), between 2001 and 2023. Results The median age of patients was 47 years (range 1-74), with 77.4% being male. Contact with dogs was reported in 41.7% of cases. Seven percent of patients were immunosuppressed, and all were Human Immunodeficiency Virus-negative. The median time from symptom onset to diagnosis was 30 days (range 4-330 days). The predominant clinical manifestations were splenomegaly (97.6%), fever (96.4%), hepatomegaly (90.5%), and weight loss (54.8%). On admission, anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and hypergammaglobulinemia were detected in 75%, 73.8%, 70.2%, and 63.1% of patients, respectively. A favorable outcome was achieved in 91.7% of cases; therapeutic failure occurred in 1.2%, and 7.1% of patients died. Conclusion VL should be considered a crucial differential diagnosis in patients from the RNM presenting with prolonged unexplained fever, splenomegaly, cytopenia, and hypergammaglobulinemia. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Hybrid peer-reviewed journals and publishing model: Bias or impartiality in editorial policy(Pensoft Publishers, 2025-03-24); ; Tsachev, IliaIn recent years, there has been a significant increase in scientific productivity—an increased number of published original articles, reviews, short communications, case reports, and letters to the editor. In this regard, there is a large number of peer-reviewed journals in all fields of scientific knowledge, including in the field of biomedical sciences. Many studies indicate the existence of so-called journal editorial board bias and acknowledge the difficulty of eliminating it. We present our brief opinion on an important topic such as how publishing policy in some peer-reviewed journals leads to feelings of bias and inequality among authors and how to address this. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
