ABSTRACT
The present prospective study included 70 females with uterine myoma indicated for surgery. The patients lived in the city districts having different industrial loads. Life quality was studied before and different periods after surgery. The poor environment was ascertained to affect life quality in patients with uterine myoma. Testing the life quality of a patient can significantly alter our views of preparation for surgery and of postoperative rehabilitation.

Species composition and a number of persistence characteristics enterobacteria isolated from urine of 42 pregnant and 22 nonpregnant women with pyelonephritis (relapse, remission), from prostatic fluid of 225 males and secretions of cervical canal of 124 women with urogenital pathology (prostatitis, salpingo-oophoritis) were studied. The study revealed that enterobacteria, including Escherichia coli, prevailed in the structure of uromicroflora (66.7-83.3%) and constituted a relatively small proportion among "genital" isolates of microorganisms (19.9-22.2%). Male and female sterility and the presence of enterobacteria in the reproductive tract of patients were found to be directly correlated. Clinical isolates of enterobacteria were shown to possess pronounced seroresistance and the complex of persistence characteristics, including antilysozyme, anti-intercidal and anticomplementary activity.
