Overweight provokes many metabolic and hemodynamic disorders. About 30% of inhabitants of the planet have overweight and prevalence of obesity increases by 10% every 10 years according to the WHO data. The probability of arterial hypertension in obese patients is 50% higher than in people with normal body mass. Framingham study showed that obesity is an independent, significant risk factor of ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, cerebral stroke and diabetes mellitus. The most dangerous is the central obesity with the preferential fat deposition in the abdomen. Combination of visceral obesity, violation of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, arterial hypertension, and close pathogenic relationship between these factors underlie the isolated symptom complex known as metabolic syndrome. J. Vague was the first to describe relationship between abdominal obesity with cardiovascular disease and mortality in 1947. In our country G.F. Lang noticed common combination of arterial hypertension with obesity, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism disorders. Thus, metabolic syndrome significantly increases risk and severity of cardiovascular disease. Within last decades criteria of metabolic syndrome stays constant. The factors of insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction as stages of the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome have been studied in detail. The mechanisms of insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction are discussed in detail in this article as well as inflammatory markers and the significance of highly sensitive C-reactive protein.

© 2018 Voprosy Sovremennoi Pediatrii - Current Pediatrics. All rights reserved. Abstarct:-Background. An important goal of treating patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is to achieve the best quality of life associated with health. Objective. Our aim was to assess the impact of methotrexate plus etanercept therapy on the quality of life of patients with early and late JIA. Methods. The prospective study included patients with early and late JIA without systemic manifestations. The patients' quality of life was assessed with the help of questionnaires for children and parents: the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) Generic Core Scale, the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) Rheumatology Module, and the Health Utilities Index Mark 3 (HUI3). The quality of life was assessed prior to the therapy and after one, six, and 12 months of treatment. Results. 150 children with JIA aged 5.1 (2.0; 17.7) years; 50 children aged 4.0 (2.3-11.4) years in the group of etanercept monotherapy, 50 children aged 5.0 (3.2-9.0) years in the group of methotrexate monotherapy, and 50 children aged 9.9 (6.4-13.0) years in the group of methotrexate plus etanercept combination therapy. All groups showed low scores on all questionnaires before treatment, compared to healthy children. In the course of therapy, there was a tendency for score increase to almost 1.0 according to the HUI3 questionnaire in all groups. After one year of etanercept therapy, the parameters of the quality of life of children with early JIA did not differ from healthy children; the score increased from 56 to 90 p = 0.942 according to the physical functioning scale and from 60 to 85 p = 0.889 according to the emotional functioning scale. In the 2nd group, there was a tendency for score increase, but a statistically significant difference was found across all scales of the questionnaire. After 12 months of etanercept plus methotrexate combination therapy in patients with late JIA, the questionnaire analysis showed that the responses of healthy children and children with JIA differed with probability p = 0.001 for the physical functioning scale, p = 0.001 for the social functioning scale, p = 0.001 for role functioning, and p = 0.001 for the total score. The score increase from 60 to 85 p = 0.789 was noted for emotional functioning scales. Conclusion. The use of questionnaires to assess the quality of life in children with severe chronic diseases can significantly improve the efficacy of treatment and ensure its control.

© 2018 Limited Liability Company KlinMed Consulting. All Rights Reserved. In this article we have described clinical pharmacology and data of clinical studies of an innovational drug valsartan + sacubitril in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). The use of supramolecular complex valsartan + sacubitril allows to elevate quality of life and improve prognosis of patients with CHF. High efficacy of valsartan+sacubitril relative to impact on composite primary end-point (cardiovascular death + hospitalization due to CHF) was demonstrated in the clinical trial PARADIGM-HF in which it was compared with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor enalapril. Advantages of the use of valsartan + sacubitril for the budget were demonstrated in pharmacoeconomic studies. These advantages are maximally realized at long-term administration. Cost-efficacy of the use of valsartan+sacubitril in pharmacotherapy of CHF is comparable with that of statins in the treatment of ischemic heart disease or implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator in prevention of sudden cardiac death. Thus, introduction of the drug into practice can be expected to reduce budget expenditures.

© 2018 Ophthalmology Publishing Group. All rights reserved. Purpose: creation of working classification of morphologic variations of postoperative lens capsule opacity after Micro-Invasive cataract surgery. Material and methods: Morphologic study of the lens capsule (LC) has been conducted on 4 artiphakic cadaveric eyes. A specimen of an isolated anterior lens capsule, obtained during the repeated operation with changes characteristic for anterior capsular contraction syndrome has been studied too. The obtained specimens have been researched with the method of semithin sections. Results: The analysis of the morphologic cadaveric LC specimens revealed the polymorphism of secondary cataract (SC). Besides well known "classic" SC forms, which were caused by fibroplasias processes or pseudo-regeneration a new type of postoperative LC opacity not represented in the available literature before has been revealed. The given variant of opacities was called "pseudo-hyaloid" form and characterized by the absence of clear LC borders, changes of its normal structure, the appearance of loose fibrillar structure with microslit spaces and exfoliations, that possibly was the consequence of acustic cavitation, arising in the result of ultrasonic effect. As a result the LC lost characteristic for it the role of the dense bed and made impossible adhesion and migration on its changed surface the proliferative fibrocellular elements characteristic for "classic" SC forms. The microscopy results of the isolated anterior LC specimen in the area of capsulotomic aperture showed the presence of altered abundant loose fibrillar tissue with microporous structure and expressed forming of folds. Making layers of fibrous tissue exceeded the thickness of the normal anterior LC in 10 and more times and considerably reduced the diameter of capsulotomic aperture. Conclusion: The variety of postoperative LC opacities confirmed by the results of morphologic studies afforded to suggest a new working classification in which all possible morphologic variants and the stages of the secondary pathologic changes forming of anterior LC. The suggested classification is convenient for the understanding and must promote to make a right algorithm in the choice of optimal and safe technology of laser reconstructive interventions.

The aim of the study was to study the effect of orthognathic surgery using the developed method of correction of dentoalveolar anomalies on the shape of the nose in patients with Class III tooth-jaw anomalies, according to Engle's classification, combined with an increase and lengthening of the nose. In the period from 2014-2017 on the basis of FGBBO VO 'PIMU' of the Ministry of Health of Russia treated 45 patients with maxillofacial anomalies, among them 31 people diagnosed with upper retro microburnia, lower macrognathia, Engle III class, skeletal type. All patients were between the ages of 21 and 45, without severe co-morbidities. We evaluated the nasolabial angle (ÐCm-Sn-UL) characterizing the projection of the tip of the nose in patients with a skeletal form of mesial occlusion and an increase and extension of the tip of the nose before and after surgical treatment. According to the data of various authors, the value of the nasolabial angle in the norm varies from 97 to 110°. The mean nasolabial angle before the operation was 83.52±2.02°, which is much less than the recommended value, which indicates a pronounced elongation and 'droop' of the tip of the nose. The average value after the operation was 94, 90±1.88°, which on the average is 11° more than the initial data. These data indicate a change in the projection of the tip of the nose and an increase in the angle of Sm-Sn-UL, thereby improving the appearance of the patient.

Research objective was assessment of a possibility of primary diagnosis of viruses Epstein-Burr, a cytomegalovirus, a virus of herpes of the 6th type in oral liquid and also influences of herpes infection on development and the clinical course of precancer diseases of the oral mucosa and the red border of lips (RBL). Profound clinic-immunological examination is conducted to 60 patients: the first group are have made 20 patients with an erosive and ulcer form of the lichen planus, the second - 20 people with an erosive form of a leukoplakia, a third - 20 people without diseases of the oral mucosa. As a result of work detection herpes infection is revealed high (90%). The combined infection with a virus Epstein-Burr and a virus of herpes of the 6th type was observed more than at a half of patients. The imbalance of factors of local immunity of the oral cavity in the form of increase in the IgG profile, decrease in concentration of IGA, lysozyme, and increase in an indicator of Ksb three times in comparison with norm and also substantial increase of level of pro-inflammatory cytokin IL 1β and FNO-α is found in patients with precancer diseases of the oral mucosa. Characteristic clinical feature of the precancer diseases associated with latent herpes infection is the long, recidivous current, persistent to traditional therapy. The research of oral liquid and blood on herpes viruses and consultation of the infectiologist is recommended to all patients with precancer diseases.

© 2018 by the authors; licensee Modestum Ltd., UK. Objective: The first interferon-free regimen became available in Russia in 2015. It brought hope to HCV Gt1 patients with cirrhosis for whom interferon-based schemes found to be non-effective or contraindicated. 3D therapy was the only available etiotropic option for them. New safety data published after the start of our study significantly limited usage of this regimen among patients with non-compensated cirrhosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of the 3D interferon-free regimen among HCV Gt1b patients with non-compensated cirrhosis. Method: 66 patients (26 males and 40 females) with HCV Gt1b and non-compensated cirrhosis were enrolled. All of them were treated with ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir, dasabuvir and ribavirin for 12 weeks. Ribavirin was discontinued after 4 weeks of therapy due to onset of new data on the efficacy of 3D regimen without ribavirin in Turquoise III study published in September 2015 before the change of package insert. Child-Pugh score was assessed before the start of antiviral therapy as follows: 21 patients (31,8%) – 9 points, 11 patients (16,7%) – 8 points, 34 patients (51,5%) – 7 points. The key method used to evaluate study results was modified intent-to-treat (mITT) analysis because number of analyzed patients within treatment period changed after withdrawal caused by safety reasons but followed by assessment of efficacy among patients who discontinued treatment. Per protocol (PP) method was also used in addition to mITT. Results: Aviremia after 14 days of treatment was reached among 35 out of 65 patients (53,8%), rapid virologic response – among 79,7% patients (51/64). Each patient who received full 12-week course of treatment (n=60) including those who discontinued due to safety reasons (n=3) between 14th and 30th days of therapy reached SVR12 and SVR24. Assessment of Child-Pugh score in 6 months after EOT demonstrated decrease by 3-4 points among 21 patients (33,9%) and by 1-2 points among 35 patients. 66,1% patients reached clinical improvement in MELD score. Treatment discontinuation was caused by progression of hepatic encephalopathy and/or jaundice (4 cases). Those adverse events regressed among majority of patients after discontinuation of therapy. 3 deaths were reported (bacterial endocarditis, progression of hepatic encephalopathy and bleeding from gastric ulcers) during treatment period and 1 death in follow-up period due to progression of hepatocellular carcinoma. Conclusion: 3D therapy was effective in 100% patients (mITT) with HCV GT1b and non-compensated cirrhosis both among those who completed full therapy course and those who discontinued the therapy due to safety reasons. Safety analysis demonstrated that the rate of severe adverse events was comparable with natural course of HCV-infection in patients on non-compensated cirrhotic stage without antiviral treatment.

© 2018 by the authors; licensee Modestum Ltd., UK. Objective: Prolongation of the QT interval in patients with coronary heart disease (CAD) is a risk factor of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (PVT) and as consequence, the sudden death. Drug-drug interactions (DDI) on metabolic rate involving cytochrome P-450 (CYP) is the one of the major cause of Long QT Syndrome (LQTS). The aim of the present study was to improve the safety of combined pharmacotherapy when using drugs that affect the QT interval. Method and Results: Medication occurrence of potential dangerous combination of medicines that are affected on QT interval duration in patients with CAD are researched (outpatient medical records (patient history) analysis). Clinical relevance of DDI, which are associated with changes in CYP enzyme activity, categorized by drugs.com Medication Guide. Finding potential dangerous combination of medicines that are affected on QT interval duration were administered to patients with CAD in 3.6% cases in outpatient clinical practice. The most often prescribed combination of drugs is amiodarone and torasemide (13.3% evidence of all concomitant administration that are leading to QT prolongation). The potential mechanism of Amiodarone and Torasemide interaction on metabolic rate that are leading to QT prolongation are competitive substrates CYP 2C8 and a result of inhibited CYP 2C9 by amiodarone. Conclusion: Ability to predict the prolongation of the QT interval caused by DDI on metabolic rate make possible to improve the safety concomitant administration to patients with CAD.

© 2018 Paediatrician Publishers, LLC. All rights reserved. Background. Planning the management for medical care delivery for children with cancer, as well as analysis of the effectiveness of medical care delivery is based on the statistical indicators analysis. Objective. Our aim was to analyze the main indicators characterizing medical care delivery for children with cancer in the Central Federal District. Methods. The operative reports for 2017 provided by the executive health protection authorities of 18 subjects of the Russian Federation that are part of the Central Federal District have been analyzed. Results. The study enrolled the following data: number of children was 6 824 049 (0–17 years), pediatric oncological departments — 9, pediatric oncological beds — 464, days of berth employment per year — 319.3. The number of practitioners providing medical care to children with cancer was 91, 64 (70.3%) of them had a certificate of training as a pediatric oncologist. In 11 subjects, the department of pediatric oncology was not available; one of the districts did not provide any pediatric oncological beds. The number of primary patients with malignant neoplasms was 821. The number of deceased patients was 156 including 66 identified in 2017. The incidence of malignant tumors was 12 (per 100 000 for the 0–17 age group), the mortality rate was 2.3 (per 100 thousand for the age group 0–17 years), one-year mortality rate — 8%. We failed to reveal the average time from diagnosis establishing till its validation before the treatment onset since the reports did not provide precise information on the point. 12 (1.5%) primary patients left for treatment abroad. Conclusion. Most reports included indicators which lack congruity with one another. The incidence rates were significantly lower than those in countries with high statistical reliability. The percentage of patients identified actively remained extremely low. To improve the revealed defects a single database of children with oncological diseases should be implemented in the Russian Federation.

Patient survival after heart transplantation has improved dramatically since the availability of calcineurin inhibitor (CNIs). However, nephrotoxicity of CNIs has been largely responsible for the progressive development of renal dysfunction and reduces long-term patient survival. Use mTOR inhibitor in immunosuppressive therapy may improve renal function when everolimus is administered associated with a progressive reduction of CNIs. The purpose of our report is to demonstrate the successful case of conversion of the recipient after heart transplantation to everolimus and to evaluate the effectiveness of this drug during the observation year after heart transplantation.

The vestibular system not only provides a link between motor and sensory processes, its functions are much more extensive. The experiments conducted in recent years on primates, as well as the data obtained by neuroimaging methods, have significantly advanced our understanding of the functioning of the vestibular system, especially its central parts. The vestibular cortex can be considered as a network of connections between all cortical areas receiving sensory input from the vestibular system, including cerebral zones in which vestibular information affects the analysis of other sensory (i.e. somatosensory and visual) and motor activity. The pathogenesis of vertigo and tinnitus is especially analyzed.

© 2018 Stolichnaya Izdatelskaya Kompaniya. Цель. Изучить влияние ожирения в детском и зрелом возрасте на показатели артериальной жесткости, центрального аортального давления в популяционной выборке мужчин 42-43 лет. Материал и методы. Представленное исследование является частью 32-летнего проспективного, когортного наблюдения за лицами мужского пола, начиная с детского возраста (11-12 лет). Через 32 года обследованы 303 (30,1%) представителя исходной популяционной выборки - 1005 человек. В анализ включены 290 человек. Средний возраст мужчин на момент настоящего обследования составил 42,9 лет. Обследование включало опрос по стандартной анкете, измерение антропометрических показателей, артериального давления (АД), подсчет пульса. Измерение жесткости артериальной стенки и центрального давления проводилось методом аппланационной тонометрии. Результаты. Согласно нашим данным из 290 мужчин в возрасте 43 лет только 95 (32,8%) имеют нормальную массу тела (МТ), у 111 (38,3%) выявлена избыточная МТ (ИМТ), а у 84 (28,9%) - ожирение (ОЖ). Мужчины с ОЖ и ИМТ во взрослом возрасте имели статистически значимую ИМТ уже в детском возрасте. Центральное аортальное АД (ЦАД) как суррогатный показатель жесткости сосудов было статистически значимо выше в группах с ОЖ и ИМТ. Корреляционный анализ выявил статистически значимую положительную взаимосвязь между показа- телями, характеризующими ОЖ в детском возрасте (индекс Кетле, толщина кожных складок), и уровнем АД в детском возрасте. Имеется по- ложительная корреляция между толщиной кожных складок в детстве с ЦАД во взрослом возрасте, а также слабая положительная связь между периферическим систолическим АД (пСАД) в детстве и центральным систолическим АД (цСАД) во взрослом возрасте. Из потенци- альных предикторов, оцененных в возрасте 12 лет и включенных в регрессионную модель, только толщина кожной складки под лопаткой (КСЛ) оказывает влияние на значение цСАД в возрасте 43 лет. С увеличением толщины КСЛ в детском возрасте на 1 мм связано повышение цСАД во взрослом состоянии на 0,4 мм.рт.ст. Среди предикторов, оцененных во взрослом возрасте, статистически значимое влияние на уровень цСАД оказывают пСАД, периферическое диастолическое АД (пДАД) и индекс Кетле. На значение центрального диастолического АД (цДАД) в возрасте 43 лет оказывает влияние толщина кожной складки на животе в 12-летнем возрасте. Среди потенциальных предикторов, оцененных во взрослом возрасте, статистически значимое влияние на уровень цДАД оказывают пДАД, показатели ожирения. Заключение. Во взрослом возрасте центральное аортальное давление максимально зависит от повышения периферического АД и показа- телей, характеризующих ожирение. Из детских предикторов (12-летнего возраста) значение имело только ожирение.

© 2018 Stolichnaya Izdatelskaya Kompaniya. В последние годы наблюдается очевидная тенденция увеличения в популяции числа пожилых больных. Эти пациенты в большинстве случаев страдают несколькими коморбидными заболеваниями, что значительно утяжеляет прогноз и усложняет тактику ведения. Представлен клинический случай пожилой пациентки, длительное время страдающей сахарным диабетом 2 типа, получающей инсулинотерапию, нахо- дящейся на программном гемодиализе из-за терминальной хронической почечной недостаточности, а также имеющей постоянную форму фибрилляции предсердий. Пациентка была госпитализирована в ГКБ №1 им Н.И. Пирогова по поводу острого повторного инфаркта миокарда. Проведено экстренное чрескожное коронарное вмешательство, стентирование инфаркт-зависимой артерии стентом с лекарст- венным покрытием. Послеоперационный период осложнился развитием острой кровопотери на фоне кровотечения из верхних отделов желудочно-кишечного тракта, тяжелой анемии сочетанного генеза (постгеморрагической, нефрогенной), что потребовало от врачей принятия нестандартных решений по выбору антитромботической терапии. Данный клинический случай иллюстрирует сложности ведения пожилых полиморбидных пациентов в реальной клинической практике, и спорные вопросы, возникающие при назначении им антитромботической терапии, особенно, после развившегося кровотечения. Рекомендательные документы не могут дать ответ на все вопросы, которые ставит перед врачом повседневная практика. В каждом конкретном случае возобновление антитромботической терапии и ее оптимальный выбор для пожилого полиморбидного пациента с развившимся кровотечением является предметом дискуссии, и представляет для лечащего врача настоящий вызов.

© 2018 GEOTAR-Media Publishing Group. Yessotoxin and its derivatives (about 90) are isolated from algae belonging to the species Protoceratium reticulatum, Gonyaulax cf. Spinifera, Lingulodinium polyedrum and from invertebrate organisms that feed on these algae. Previously yessotoxin have been associated with the group of diarrheal toxins. Later studies of the possible impact of yessotoxin on the activity of alkaline phosphatase allowed to exclude them from this group. Yessotoxin causes a violation of calcium entry in the cells, which, in turn, effects the calcium-calmodulin system and thus influences into homeostasis of the organism as a whole. It was shown that yessotoxin induces a biphasic change in the concentration of adenosine monophosphate, an initial increase with a subsequent relative decrease, within some minutes after adding the toxin to the lymphocytes cell culture. Yessotoxin has effects on immune system; which is manifested in an increase of cytokines level, by inducing the expression of the genes encoding them. Yessotoxin have impact into processes of cell adhesion via E-cadherin and, thus, could be an important factor in the development of Alzheimer's disease. It has been established that yessotoxin caused the development of apoptosis. In those cases all three mechanisms of cell death took place - apoptosis, paraptosis and autophagy. Yessotoxin's acute toxicity doses according to different data are from 100 to 500-750 μg per 1kg of body weight. Yessotoxin's acute reference dose (ARfD) - 25 μg/kg of body weight per day. The results of the analysis of yessotoxin level in shellfish meat showed that none of the studied samples contained more than 3.75 mg yessotoxin equivalents/kg shellfish meat. This level has been adopted by the European Union as the maximum acceptable level of yessotoxin in shellfish meat (EU Regulation N 786/2013). Presented data on the mechanism of action, toxicity and prevalence of yessotoxins make it necessary to establish regulations of their content in seafood, placed on the markets of the Eurasian Economic Union.

© 2018 Dynasty Publishing House. All rights reserved. The objective: The purpose of the study is to establish the role of infection with herpes simplex viruses type I and II in the pathogenesis of urogenital infection in pregnant women. Patients and methods: 89 patients of I, II trimester gestation, aged 18 to 35 years (average age of 27.5 ± 5.6 years) were examined. The design of the research and the methodology of verification of the UGI pathogens of pregnant women are presented in previously published materials. The establishment of character of pregnancy course (urgent delivery, premature birth, termination of pregnancy and mis-carriage), the presence or absence of infection and/or clinical manifestations of infectious and inflam-matory diseases, as well as evaluating the gene expression of TLR-2, TLR-3, TLR-4, TLR-8 (in relative units - RU) was conducted according to manuals. Results: It is established, that in UGI in pregnant combined viral-bacterial infection is registered. Viral component of UGI pathogens in pregnant women is presented by the association of viruses from the Herpesviridae family - herpes simplex viruses, Cytomega-lovirus, Epstein-Bar virus. Against the background of polyfactorial mechanisms of the pathogenesis of abortion, extra maximum activation of gene expression of TLR (22-23 RU or more) additional external factors, for example, infections can be an aggravating pathogenetic factor of miscarriage. Reduced expression of genes of TLR2, TLR4, TLR3 and TLR8 in the mucous membrane of the cervical canal in UGI of pregnant women in infection with herpes simplex virus due to the oppressive effect of pregnancy on the reaction of TLR, combined with the immunodepressive effect of the virus itself. With the violation of cellular part of immuno-logical reactivity of the body under the influence of adverse endogenous and exogenous factors on the process of pregnancy is activated the infectious process caused by the bacte-rial-viral pathogens association, which is accompanied by hyper reaction and increased reaction from the expression of genes of TLR, determines the pathological development of pregnancy. It is established that in the UGI of pregnant gene expression levels of TLR2-21.2 and above, TLR4-23.0 and above, TLR8 - 26.0 and above (the level of gene expression of TLR8 above 28 is the predictor of the onset of abortion and miscarriage) testify to the acute infectious process with the clinical manifestations of the UGI, and also indicates the possible interruption of pregnancy and miscarriage; levels of gene expression of TLR2 below 21.2, TLR4 below 23.0, TLR8 below 26.0, in-dicated a decrease in the severity of the infectious process and its chronicity, as well as the possibility of direct microbial damage to the tissues of UGT, placenta, and fetus. Conclusion: Verified in preg-nant women in 61% of cases clinical manifestations of the infectious process are necessarily associated with the verification of the association of herpes simplex viruses I and II type - triggers of infectious process deterioration, determining the prognosis and outcome of the development of the UGI in preg-nant.

AIMS: On the basis of echocardiography to evaluate the thickness of epicardial fat (TEF) in patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) and to establish a connection with the main indicators of laboratory and instrumental methods of research. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 76 patients, 43 patients with MS and 33 without MS.The average age of patients in the MS group at the time of inclusion in the study was 62.7±10.3 years in the control group (without MS) - 60±14.7 years. All patients underwent a comprehensive examination that included the collection of complaints, study of history, physical examination, anthropometric measurements, laboratory (including the study of the levels of caspase - 8, leptin in blood plasma enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using kits «Platinum ELISA») and instrumental examination (echocardiography, ultrasound examination of organs of small pelvis). TEF was determined using transthoracic echocardiography on the machine Acuson Sequoia 512. RESULTS: According transthoracic echocardiography was significantly higher in the group of patients with MS and was 4.67±1.7 mm, as compared to 2.66+1.15 mm in the control group (p<0.001). Identified moderate and strong correlation between TEF and weight of the patients, waist circumference, ratio of waist circumference to hip circumference, body mass index, glucose levels in the blood plasma, the presence of diabetes mellitus type 2, ultrasonic signs of steatosis of the liver and pancreas, increased aminotransferases, the level of caspase-8 concentration in plasma leptin. Patients the MS group with increased TEF increases the risk of developing hypertension, ischemic heart disease, left ventricular hypertrophy, diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle type 2, level of caspase-8 and concentration in plasma leptin. CONCLUSION: Based on the obtained data, the measurement of TEF is justified in patients with MS in everyday clinical practice. The correlations between theTEF and the clinical and metabolic parameters of the CVD and MS make it possible to consider the TEF as a new marker of the risk of developing MS and cardiovascular diseases.

The purpose of this study is to compare the diagnostic performance of coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) and stress test as a first-line examination for the diagnosis of stable coronary artery disease in outpatient settings. Materials and methods. The study prospectively enrolled 74 patients with typical and atypical angina symptoms lasting longer than three weeks, mean age-63,9±10,4 years, 28 (37,8%) women. Exclusion criteria: contraindications to iodine-containing contrast media, statins; GFR <45ml/min/1,73 sq m; inability to perform stress testing. All patients consistently underwent stress testing (standard Bruce protocol and The Modified Bruce protocol) and standard CCTA on a 640-slice CT scanner Toshiba Aquilion ONE. We determined pretest probability of CAD and stratified risks using SCORE and ACC/AHA scales. Statistical processing was performed with SPSS version 11,5 software. Results. Treadmill test results were positive in 51,4% of patients, among them according to CCTA: 19,15% had stenosis = 70%, 35,3% had stenosis 50-69%. CCTA revealed that 28,6% of males and 46,2% of females with typical and 66,7% of males and 50,0% of females with atypical angina symptoms with positive treadmill test had no evidence of atherosclerotic lesions. 4,05% of patients with negative stress testing had evidence of significant arterial lesions (stenosis >70%). According to the SCORE risk estimation, 67,6% of patients with atherosclerotic changes in coronary arteries had high risk, ACC/AHA score-70,6%. The sensitivity and specificity of the SCORE and ACC/AHA scales in revealing coronary atherosclerosis were 83% and 71%, 81% and 88%, respectively (p> 0.05). Conclusion. CCTA can be considered as a method for the primary diagnosis of stable coronary artery disease in outpatient practice.

The purpose of this study was to assess the level of apoptosis in cells of human seminiferous tubules in normal and pathological spermatogenesis by revealing the proportion of immunostaining cells for caspase-9 and -3 and by comparing the expression of pro-apoptotic (BAK and BAX) and anti-apoptotic genes (BCL2 and BCLW). A retrospective study involved men (n = 42) who complained of childlessness in marriage for 2 years with a diagnosis of idiopathic infertility, established after physical, genetic, biochemical (hormones) and cytological (spermogram) analyzis. The biopsies of the testes as well as the autopsy material of men 22—35 (n = 10), 64—75 (n = 10) and 75—90 (n = 10) years were studied using the immunohistochemical method (caspase-9 and -3) and PCR-RT. The marking level for caspase-9 in spermatogonies with normal spermatogenesis is approximately at the same level (the proportion of stained spermatogonies is 39.5 0.33 % in young men, 35.6 0.44 % in the elderly, and 32.2 0.28 % in man of senile age), and increases when the maturation is blocked and in the case of focal variant of Sertoli-cell-only syndrome (64.3 0.39 and 72.0 0.41 %, respectively). When using antibodies to caspase-3, the percentage of immunopositive spermatogonia in normal spermatogenesis was 60.1 0.44 % in young men, 78.2 1.2 % in the elderly, and 87.3 0.9 % in men of senille age, and with idiopathic infertility, a sharp increase in the proportion of labeled spermatogonia was observed (an average of 91.4 1.1 %). In the case of hypospermatogenesis and the blocking of maturation, a significant increase in the relative level of expression of the proapoptotic genes of the internal pathway of apoptosis of BAX and BAK was observed against the background of a decrease in the expression of the anti-apoptotic genes BCL2 and BCLW, compared to men of the same age but with normal spermatogenesis. Based on the results, we can conclude that in the elderly’s testes the receptor-mediated pathway of apoptosis predominates over the mitochondrial (internal) pathway. In the idiopathic form of male infertility the internal pathway of apoptosis is dominant. An increase in the activity of apoptosis markers can be associated with impaired maturation of the germ cells in the meiosis block and with the depletion of the germ cell pool in Sertoli-cell-only syndrome.

© 2018 Russian Electronic Journal of Radiology. All rights reserved. Purpose. To present the possibility of the computed tomography (CT) in determination of a kidney injury for improving the quality of diagnostics and treatment of this group of patients. Materials and methods. Analyzed data comes from 72 T-researches with 50 patients with kidney injury at the closed injury of a stomach who were on treatment in Sklifosovsky Research and Clinical Institute for Emergency Medicine. Data of T was verified with the results of operations and autopsies. For determination of injury severity of a kidney the scale of Organ Injury Scale (OIS) was used. Results and discussion. Kidney injuries of the 1 degree (a contusion of a kidney and a subcapsular hematoma) were found in 12 patients, including the one with pre-existing pathology. Injuries of a kidney of the II degree were revealed in 14 patients: a cortical gap-in 9 cases, a subcapsular hematoma of a kidney with gap signs-in 3 cases; a subcapsular cyst with symptoms of hemorrhage and a gap-in two patients. Kidney injuries of the III degree were diagnosed in 7 patients in the form of a rupture of cortical substance from 12 mm to 18 mm deep. Damages of the IV degree were revealed in cases of 11 patients, including thrombosis of a segmentary branch of a renal artery in 6 patients. Injuries of a kidney of the V degree were revealed in 6 patients mainly in the form of fragmentation of a kidney. For an assessment of efficiency of treatment of 22 patients CT research in dynamics was executed, identification of complications served as the indication for repeated surgical intervention. Conclusions. T is an informative method which is possible to define not only an injury of a kidney, but also the degree of its severity. It allows to choose rational tactics for the treatment and to avoid an unreasonable nephrectomy. Performance of T in dynamics allows to estimate efficiency of treatment and in due time to diagnose complications.
