  • Description: Hemorrhagic fever in Samarkand Oblast was usually observed during the summer months. The majority of patients associated their illness with sojourn in the fields and some with tickbite. Most patients entered the clinic with a severe or average-severe form of illness. The onset of illness was acute, with high temperature, headaches, malaise, rheumatic pains in the extremities, loins, and general weakness. From the first day of illness the temperature increased to 38 - 40C, but with the appearance of hemorrhagic syndrome it sharply decreased to normal or below, and later in most cases continued to increase for the next 2 to 5 days. Later the temperature had, in some cases, a constant, in other cases a remittent, intermittent, or subfebrile character. Eruptions of various sizes appeared on the body of the patients. Usually on the first day of appearance of eruptions or a day before, nasal, pharyngeal, aural, and intestinal hemorrhages, sanguinolent vomiting, and in women uterine hemorrhages were noted. Hemorrhagic syndromes were less marked in the average-severe and mild cases. The hemorrhagic syndromes were accompanied by affliction of the nervous and cardiovascular system as well as of the respiratory and digestive organs. The number of thrombocytes decreased in all patients at the peak of illness (183 to 35.000 per cmm.). The number of leucocytes, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes fluctuated within normal or lower limits. (Author) Trans. of Za Sotsialisticheskoe Zdravokhraenenie Uzbekistana (USSR) n2 p12-6 1953.
