Clinical observation of sick children. |
Children with clinically diagnosed acute tonsillitis are examined. The clinical study will be carried out on an outpatient basis in cooperation with the clinic of the Tashkent Pediatric Medical Institute. Prior to the study, written permission will be obtained from the parents or guardians of the children to participate in the study. Investigated: anamnesis of the child, the course of the disease, complaints of parents about the child's condition, body temperature in dynamics, visually - the state of the nasopharynx, the manifestation of clinical symptoms (sore throat, headaches, difficulty swallowing food, aphonia, and other signs) in dynamics, the functional state of internal organs (percussion, palpation and auscultation). |
study of one patient - 4 weeks |

Primary |
Laboratory research methods. |
All examined children will undergo general clinical examination and pharyngoscopy. Additionally, all patients will have tonsil swabs for bacteriological examination (bacteriological culture, n x 104/mL ) according to the standard technique. Also, swabs from the nasopharynx will be taken for viral lesions by the standard method - PCR (polymerase chain reaction). The research will be carried out in specialized laboratories. |
study of one patient - 2 weeks |

Primary |
Experimental clinical stage. Bacteriophage therapy. |
Comprehensive outpatient treatment will be based on standard clinical guidelines. Patients will be prescribed antibiotic therapy based on possible pathogens. Patients will receive bacteriophage therapy using a liquid pyobacteriophage complex (liquid pyobacteriophage complex - PCL), through nebulizer inhalation to irrigate the mucous membranes of the tonsils. Just 5 ml PCL for 10 minutes once every 5 days. Efficacy will be studied based on immunological studies.A study of cellular (class of T-lymphocytes, Inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL-1,2,4,5,6,11,13 - U/ml) and TNF-a) and humoral ( IgA / IgM / IgG -IU/mL) immunity in children will be carried out, using (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay) ELISA which is an immunoassay, suited to the determination of antibodies in the field of infectious serology. |
study of one patient - 4 weeks |

Secondary |
The second stage of the study (statistical). |
The results will be analyzed using a statistical program based on Excel 2017 (Microsoft Office 2017). Clinical signs will be calculated as a percentage (%) incidence. We will calculate the chi-square (?2) test or Fisher's exact test (for expected values <5) to assess if certain pairs of microbes are more common than expected by chance in bacteriological examination. In addition, we will use the Kruskal-Wallis test to compare the average delay between disease onset and sample collection between samples containing one or more organisms. When evaluating immunological analyzes, characterizing the statistical significance of differences, the Student's t-test will be used with the definition of the confidence interval. The X-square test will be used to assess the frequency of identifying qualitative features. In all analyzes, P = 0.05 was considered significant. |
