The etiology of the disease, the age structure of fatalities, the time of death were studied in 34 fatal cases in the period of influenza A (H1N1) epidemic in December 1977-February 1978 and in 33 fatal cases during influenza A/Victoria/3/75 (H3N2) epidemic in January-March, 1975 (data from some autopsy offices of Kiev). The results of the investigation of the etiology by immunofluorescence and the histological methods were mostly similar. The polyetiological structure of the diseases in the influenza epidemic of 1975 and rather monoetiological one in the influenza epidemic of 1977-1978 were observed. In 1975, fatal cases were found mostly in 2 age groups: infants under 1 year and adults over 20, in 1977-1978 in 4 age groups: infants under 1, children of 1-3, over 9, and adults. In both epidemics the maximum number of fatal cases coincided with the beginning of a decline in the epidemic wave and subsequently they were registered evenly for over one month. A high infection rate with a new influenza A virus variant (H1N1) was found among normal subjects in all age groups.
对1977年12月至1978年2月甲型流感（H1N1）流行期间的34例死亡病例以及1975年1月至3月甲型流感/维多利亚/3/75（H3N2）流行期间的33例死亡病例（来自基辅一些尸检办公室的数据）的疾病病因、死亡者年龄结构和死亡时间进行了研究。通过免疫荧光和组织学方法进行病因调查的结果大多相似。观察到1975年流感流行中疾病的多病因结构以及1977 - 1978年流感流行中相当单一的病因结构。1975年，死亡病例大多出现在两个年龄组：1岁以下婴儿和20岁以上成年人；1977 - 1978年出现在四个年龄组：1岁以下婴儿、1 - 3岁儿童、9岁以上儿童和成年人。在这两次流行中，死亡病例的最大数量都与流行波下降的开始时间一致，随后在一个多月的时间里均匀记录。在所有年龄组的正常人群中都发现了新的甲型流感病毒变体（H1N1）的高感染率。
