A 31-year-old male had a sudden onset of painful swelling in the penile root region. He then developed necrosis of the penis and further a progressive, chemotherapy-resistant ulcer which involved the perineal region also. Histologically there was evidence of neither malignancy nor specific inflammation, but there were granulomatous tissues with cellular infiltration and scattered vascular necrosis. Examination of the nose suggested gangrenous rhinitis with perforation of the nasal septum. X-ray examination revealed that the nasal septum and conchae had disappeared. Chest roentgenogram also revealed increased hilar shadows in both fields of the chest. Routine laboratory examinations showed slight albuminuria and a normal BUN level. Positive findings included leucocytosis, hyper-gamma-globulinemia, accelerated ESR, positive RA and CRP tests. The patient's death was caused by bleeding from gastric ulcer and pulmonary failure.

Studied were more than 100,000 samples of pathologic tissue material, 1,900 whole blood and blood serum samples, 8,000 fecal samples, 2,600 washings samples, swab samples, and other sampled material via the employment of a number of bacteriologic, virologic, morphologic, hematologic, biochemical, parasitologic, and other routinely applicable laboratory methods over a period of 5 years. All materials were taken from 15 stock swine breeding complexes, 3 reproduction and 2 nucleus bases for hybrid pigs, and 3 swine breeding farms with a practice of extensive raising technology. It was demonstrated that the adaptive capacity of the animals of the Camborough hybrid sharply dropped when the pigs were kept under unconventional conditions of raising, leading to deviations in the application of industrial technology methods. This was the reason to observe the simultaneous manifestation of conditionally substantiated disease outbreaks (multiple causality), with great economic losses. Studied were the etiology and pathogenesis of coli bacteriosis, salmonellosis, gastric ulcer, hypotrophy, atrophic rhinitis, geohelminthiases, chlamydial infections, and erysipelas. Suggested is the use of programmes and methods of prophylaxis and treatment, of expedient diagnosis and control on immunity.

Patulous eustachian tube is a pathological condition which exists more often than we make a diagnosis, and a patient is not often aware of his disease. This disease can be manifested with various symptoms: respiratory synchrony noises in the ear, because of the penetration of the air current through the eustachian tube and with the movement of the eardrum outwards and inside, with autophony, reduction of the hearing, the buzzing, dizziness and disturbance of the balance. Two patients are presented. The first one was sick for many years from various chronics exhausted diseases: Jackson's epilepsy, temporary vascular brain disturbances, tuberculosis of lung, stomach ulcer, heart diseases, the patient is from low class, on one side, and also suffers from some local diseases: a paralysis of soft palate and palatal arcs, a chronic catarrhal rhinitis and sinusitis, a deviation of nasal dividing wall and hindered breathing through the nose, on the other side. Many years the patient didn't know for patological condition in the ears and in the eustachian tubes. After improving the hygienic conditions, the physical condition and local therapy, the patient felt much better. The second patient, with considerable shorter evolution of the disease and mild symptomatology, showed the amplified symptoms of the disease of the Eustachian tube in the course of the acute otitis. It is attained a satisfying calming of the manifestative symptoms by remedy therapie. Man must thing about possibility of the appearance of this pathology condition in various disease or conditions, which can take to the fast lost of the weight and physical and moral exhaustion of the patient, i.e. an adult, first as the protection of the appearance of the disease (condition) and afterwards, eventually early and regulary treatment in order to prevent various possible, above mentioned complications.

Xanthium strumarium L. (Asteraceae) is a common and well-known traditional Chinese herbal medicine usually named Cang-Er-Zi, and has been used for thousands of years in China. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the progress of modern research, and provide a systematic review on the traditional usages, botany, phytochemistry, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology of the X. strumarium. Moreover, an in-depth discussion of some valuable issues and possible development for future research on this plant is also given. X. strumarium, as a traditional herbal medicine, has been extensively applied to treat many diseases, such as rhinitis, nasal sinusitis, headache, gastric ulcer, urticaria, rheumatism bacterial, fungal infections and arthritis. Up to now, more than 170 chemical constituents have been isolated and identified from X. strumarium, including sesquiterpenoids, phenylpropenoids, lignanoids, coumarins, steroids, glycosides, flavonoids, thiazides, anthraquinones, naphthoquinones and other compounds. Modern research shows that the extracts and compounds from X. strumarium possess wide-ranging pharmacological effects, including anti- allergic rhinitis (AR) effects, anti-tumor effects, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, insecticide and antiparasitic effects, antioxidant effects, antibacterial and antifungal effects, antidiabetic effects, antilipidemic effects and antiviral effects. However, further research should focus on investigating bioactive compounds and demonstrate the mechanism of its detoxification, and more reasonable quality control standards for X. strumarium should also be established.
