The article examines the possibility of determining the level of lactate dehydrogenase (LD) in biological fluids as a marker of renal dysfunction and energy supply in neonates with asphyxia. Investigation included 200 full-term newborns with disturbance kidney function: 100 infants who had severe asphyxia, and 100--with moderate asphyxia. LD activity was determined by kinetic spectrophotometric method. Determination of the activity of LD in the urine in the early neonatal period it is advisable to use as a non-invasive marker for the diagnosis of renal dysfunction in neonates with asphyxia. The content of LD in the blood serum can be used as one of the early markers of kidney damage in newborns with asphyxia.
Results of investigation of mineral density condition of skeletal osseous tissue in patients with inflammatory and dystrophic-inflammatory diseases of periodontal tissues with ultrasound densitometry method have been presented. Various changes of osseous tissue of skeletal bones have been detected: osteopenia, osteoporosis and osteosclerosis, which correlated with the severity of pathological process in periodontium. Analysis of the obtained results has been carried out depending on patients' sex as well as form and severity degree of the course of periodontal diseases. It has been established that the peak of detected impairments of mineral density in the skeleton is due to osteopenia, the degree of severity of which deteriorates with the severity of pathological process in periodontal tissues, especially in women.
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of antihypertensive therapy with adding of gamma-amino-beta-phenylbutyric acid hydrochloride on the autonornic regulation of tcardiovascular system and the psychoemotional status in young men with hypertension. The study included 58 male with hypertension, aged 18-39 years (mean age 31.7 yearst 2.3 years), of them 28 patients (group I) administered beta-blocker and the other received a complex therapy which included beta-blocker and gamma-amino-beta-phenylbutyric acid hydrochiotide--Noofen ("OlainFarm", Latvia) 250 mg 3 times a day for 4 weeks. The control group consisted of 20 healthy indi&iduals aged 18-39 years (mean age 31.5 years +/- 2.5 years). The examination included of standard clinical; biochemical and instrumental investigatIons. We conducted a clinical measurement of blorid pressure, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), Doppler echocardiography, heart rate variability, autononlic symptoms questionnaire and Spielberger--Hanina Anxiety Scale. Analysis of circadian blbod pressure profile arid autonomic nervous system state in young men with hypertension, in spite of the short disenle history demonstratnl violations of the blood pressure circadian rhythm associated with the violation of the autonomic regulation of cardiovascular system as indreased sympathetic activity and decreased parasympathetic activity heart tate. In hypertensive patients with autonomic dysfunction we noted a reduction of level of mental health, which was reflected in an increase in'the number of people with high and moderate levels of reactive and personal anxiety It has been demonstratedthat the use of combination therapy with adding Noofen in young hypertensive men and autonomic dysfunction helped significantly improve the HRV parameters and restore autonomic balance on time parameters of heart rate variability reduced the level of reactive anxiety and imprdved the psychoemotional state.
The article presents the results for the study of lipid correction capacity and safety of concomitant use of policosanol and rosuvastatin compared with rosuvastatin monotherapy in patients with stable coronary artery disease and moderate hepatic dysfunction. Fifty-seven subjects aged 37 to 72 years (mean age 54.4 years +/- 6.5 years) have been enrolled into the study with the following inclusion criteria: therapy with statins for more than 8 weeks, failure to achieve target LDL cholesterol levels and moderately elevated liver enzymes. The following laboratory tests were performed at baseline and after 12 weeks of follow-up: blood lipid profile (total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides (TG), lipid peroxidation (ma- Ionic dialdehyde (MDA), glycosylated hemoglobin HbAlc (%) and liver function tests (gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase-gamma-GTP) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Concomitant use of policosanol with rosuvastatin was superior to rosuvastatin monotherapy in terms of reduction of pro-aterogenicity of lipid metabolism by decreasing serum TC, LDL-C and TG, increasing serum HDL-C and decreasing the pro-oxidative activity (MDA) with simultaneous substantial improvement of hepatic function. Concomitant use of policosanol at the dose of 20 mg/day and rosuvastatin at 10-20 mg/day was favorably tolerated. None of the subjects had any discontinuations of therapy due to adverse events.
Examined 117 students of the National Pedagogical Dragomanov University to assess body mass index and indicators of the functional state of the cardiovascular system. Was established that regulatory mechanisms in students with overweight and underweight are in a state of tension and functionalities of the cardiovascular system are reduced under normal conditions of learning.
The article presents data on levels of osteocalcin and pyridinoline in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), their comparison with structural and functional state of bone tissue and course of the disease. Bone metabolism derangements were found in 65.8% of women with SLE. Herewith, the increase of pyridinoline content was observed in 43.9% of patients, the reduction of osteocalcinin 39% of individuals. The deterioration of bone metabolism was associated with the severity of the disease, especially high levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) (r = 0.3-0.32), cumulative dose of glucocorticoids (GC) and low body mass index (BMI). Among patients with signs of biosynthetic inhibition and increasing of destructive processes in bone tissue were more often met people with osteopenia and osteoporosis. osteoporosis.
Based on many years of experience in 2009, we developed the original concept of a mixed approach to the treatment of infectious diseases in patients. During 2.5 years(from 2013 to June 2015) to have applied for consultative-diagnostic help of 3965 patients who had not verified the primary diagnosis. The basic principle of verification of the pathology of the removal of various causes immunosuppression. Based on our extensive, research and observation was often found in patients ascaridosis (55%) and giardiasis (65%), as a possible cause of immunosuppression. In 13% of patients was found the mucosal candidiasis. Among frequently and chronically ill persons we identified the active forms of Epstein-Barr virus (quantitative polymerase chain reaction in saliva) in 40%. The criterion for assessing performance immunogram was a decrease of two sigmal deviation from the lower age limit. In the study of neutrophil myeloperoxidase content observed decline (< 60%) in 99 (9.7%) of 1015 patients, indicating a fairly common cause of long-term permit infection in the tissues and persistence C. albicans. In the study of lymphocyte subpopulations often demonstrated reduction in the number of natural killer cells (26.7% of subjects), which shows a decline of one of the most important factors of congenital immunity. Among the humoral immune disorders often noted the decrease of total IgG (2.4%) and its subclass IgG1 (22.1%), indicating a significant diagnostic value determination of IgG subclasses it even with normal serum total. Thus, approximately 76% of patients often suffer set of a decrease immunity. Patients developed with mixed infections caused by various bacterial, fungal, viral and protozoan agents and worms. Immunological study of patients should be redynamics after eliminating the causes immunosuppression and sanitation foci of infection. Only multi-level examination of the patient will determine the final diagnosis and adequate treatment.
