The proportion of severe cases is significantly elevating and clinicians now have to contend with the problem of additional and more frequent episodes of recurrences including an upward trend in the mortality rate. This situation led us to investigate the possibility of the fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). An amount of 100 ml of fecal microbiota solution was instilled into a nasojejunal (NJ) tube in 16 cases and into a nasogastric (NG) tube in 44 cases. In all of the cases, where the solution was instilled via nasojejunal tubes, the symptoms resolved within 24 h. We did not note any recurrences in this group. When the material was flushed in through nasogastric tubes, the symptoms resolved in 39 (88.64%) cases within 24 h. In this group, we have experienced a recurrent episode of C. difficile infection in five (11.36%) cases. Three of them were cured with a second transplantation. We have found that in our practice the upper gastrointestinal tract methods had the primary cure rate of 91.67%, whereas the secondary cure rate is 96.67%. When we compared the NJ and NG methods, we have found that the differences in the outcomes are not significant statistically (p = 0.3113 using Fisher's exact probability test). In conclusion, FMT proved to be very effective, particularly in recurrent infections and in cases where conventional treatment had failed.}, keywords = {nasojejunal tube; FECAL MICROBIOTA TRANSPLANTATION; nasogastric tube}, year = {2019}, eissn = {1588-2640}, pages = {179-188}, orcid-numbers = {Vincze, Áron/0000-0003-2217-7686; Péterfi, Zoltán/0000-0001-9658-153X} } @article{MTMT:3414031, title = {Improving asylum seekers' health awareness in a Hungarian refugee reception centre.}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/3414031}, author = {Marek, Erika and D'Cruz, G and Katz, Zoltán and Szilárd, István and Berényi, Károly and Feiszt, Zsófia}, doi = {10.1093/heapro/day066}, journal-iso = {HEALTH PROMOT INT}, journal = {HEALTH PROMOTION INTERNATIONAL}, volume = {34}, unique-id = {3414031}, issn = {0957-4824}, abstract = {Due to its long border of the European Union Schengen Area, Hungary has long been affected by the rapidly growing inward migration towards the EU, which has become more acute in recent years. Inadequate access to healthcare among migrants has been widely reported and this may be due to a vast array of factors and may result in poorer health outcomes. Between August 2014 and April 2015 a questionnaire survey was conducted among migrants from a range of countries residing in the largest Hungarian refugee reception centre to establish participants' health knowledge and access to healthcare in Hungary (medical assessment, vaccination, etc.). The survey was complemented with an educational program which aimed to increase participants' awareness of healthcare provision and to promote the prevention of the infectious diseases that are common in Europe. The results showed that half the participants (52%) had no information of healthcare provision and the majority (61%) did not participate in any medical assessment since arriving in the reception centre. Since under-immunization may be a potential risk for the re-emergence of vaccine-preventable diseases for recipient countries, it was alarming that a significant proportion of African participants (21%) reported not having received any childhood vaccinations. Data demonstrated deficiencies in participants' health knowledge and also an urgent need to address mental health problems of arriving migrants.

Their epidemiology has radically changed with a significant rise in the number of cases and an increase in severe episodes. Recurrence and failure of conventional treatments are very common. Furthermore, a spread of CDI has emerged in general population without the usual risk factors (unexposed to antibiotic treatment, young people, etc.). The conventional treatments (metronidazole and vancomycin) are still effective and are the first-line antibiotics with new recommendations. New therapeutic strategies are now available. Recent studies show a better efficacy of vancomycin compared with metronidazole for severe episodes. Fidaxomicin is a novel antibiotic drug with an efficacy similar to vancomycin and a lower risk of recurrence. Finally, for relapsing forms, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) seems to be the best option. We determined risk factors for CDI among patients treated at the infectious diseases ward of our hospital in Pecs. The study included 886 patients with CDI from 2009 to 2014. The average number of recurrent episodes was 2.16 and the proportion of severe cases was 66%. Among our patients, 726 (82%) had taken antibiotics and 769 (86.8%) had been hospitalized in the prior 3 months before developing CDI. We have found that prior statin use could be a significant risk factor of CDI (OR: 1.7765, 95% CI: 1.3966-2.2597, p < 0.0001).

AIM: The aim of the authors was to investigate the possibility of the fecal microbiota transplantation and study differences, if any, in the success rate of the two different upper gastrointestinal tract method. METHOD: 100 ml of fecal microbiota solution was instilled via a nasoduodenal tube in 15 cases and a nasogastric tube in 15 cases. The authors defined the primary cure rate as the percentage of cases in which the symptoms disappeared without recurrence within 6 weeks after the first fecal microbiota transplantation, while secondary cure rate was calculated as the percentage of cases in which the symptoms resolved after the second fecal microbiota transplantation. RESULTS: It was found that fecal microbiota transplantation applied via the nasoduodenal tube resulted in a 100% primary cure rate. With the use of the nasogastric tube, the primary and secondary cure rate were 80% and 93.3%, respectively. Fecal microbiota transplantation via the upper gastrointestinal tract was found to have an overall primary cure rate of 90.0% and a secondary cure rate of 96.7%.

Miután a malária terjedése szempontjából legfontosabb epidemiológiai tényezők ismertté váltak, nagy erőkkel megkezdődött a betegség elleni küzdelem. A rovarölővel impregnált hálóknak és az újonnan felfedezett antimaláriás szereknek köszönhetően jó kontrollt lehetett elérni. A kezdeti sikereket követően a malária visszaszorításában reménykedő tudományos optimizmusnak csalódnia kellett, az utóbbi években a malária eddig soha nem látott mértékben lángolt fel és új területeken hódít. Ez leginkább a gyógyszerekkel és rovarölőkkel szemben kialakult rezisztenciának, a növekvő migrációnak, a turizmusnak, valamint az éghajlatváltozásnak köszönhető. Az Anopheles szúnyog csípése során fertőződik az ember a maláriát okozó Plasmodiummal. A malária elleni védekezésnek legfontosabb részét az endémiás területeken tartózkodók profilaxisa képezi, ami rovarirtók, impregnált hálók alkalmazását és kemoprofilaxist jelent. A maláriára jellemző klinikai tünetek esetén az endémiás területről hazaérkező beteget kezelni kell, mert a malária akut, életet veszélyeztető állapot lehet.
