Introduction. The initial assessment of prognosis is of particular importance in determining the management of patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia and the choice of specific therapy. The aim is to analyze the risk factors for failure to achieve a complete response to the bendamustine±rituximab treatment regimen in patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Materials and methods. Twenty-two patients undergoing treatment for B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) progression were included in the study. Response to treatment was assessed on the 56th day, categorized as complete, partial, or no response. Patients were divided into three groups based on their response: group I (n=6) included patients who showed a complete response after receiving bendamustine±rituximab; group II (n=11) included patients who achieved a partial response; and group III (n=5) consisted of patients with no response. Risk factors for chemotherapy resistance, as well as general and biochemical blood counts, were evaluated and subjected to statistical analysis. Results: Stage III (C) and IV (C) according to the Rai, Binet classification were recorded in 33.2% of patients with a complete response to chemotherapy, in 36.4% of patients with a partial response to chemotherapy, and in 60% of patients with no response to specific treatment. A decrease in hemoglobin level below 100 g/L was recorded only in patients with a partial response and no response, namely in 4 (36%) patients of group II and 1 (20%) patient of group III. On day 56, in patients of group II who received a partial response, there was a direct correlation between the level of leukocytes in the hemogram and the activity of aspartate aminotransferase (r=0.71; p=0.01) and the content of total bilirubin (r=0.63; p=0.03) in the biochemical blood test. After 2 courses of chemotherapy in patients of group III, a direct correlation of high strength between the level of leukocytes in the hemogram and the activity of aspartate aminotransferase (r=0.93; p=0.02) and alanine aminotransferase (r=0.93; p=0.02) in the biochemical blood test was found. The bendamustine±rituximab chemotherapy regimen has a high safety profile.
导言对预后的初步评估对于确定 B 细胞慢性淋巴细胞白血病患者的治疗方案和特定疗法的选择尤为重要。本文旨在分析 B 细胞慢性淋巴细胞白血病患者在接受苯达莫司汀±利妥昔单抗治疗方案后未能获得完全应答的风险因素。材料与方法研究纳入了22名正在接受治疗的B细胞慢性淋巴细胞白血病（B-CLL）进展期患者。治疗反应在第 56 天进行评估，分为完全反应、部分反应或无反应。根据患者的反应分为三组：I组（6人）包括接受苯达莫司汀±利妥昔单抗治疗后出现完全反应的患者；II组（11人）包括出现部分反应的患者；III组（5人）包括无反应的患者。对化疗耐药的风险因素以及一般和生化血液计数进行了评估和统计分析。结果根据 Rai 和 Binet 的分类，33.2% 的患者对化疗完全有反应，36.4% 的患者对化疗部分有反应，60% 的患者对特定治疗无反应，均为 III 期（C）和 IV 期（C）。只有部分反应和无反应患者的血红蛋白水平下降到 100 克/升以下，即第二组的 4 名患者（36%）和第三组的 1 名患者（20%）。第 56 天，在获得部分应答的 II 组患者中，血液图中的白细胞水平与血液生化检验中的天冬氨酸氨基转移酶活性（r=0.71；p=0.01）和总胆红素含量（r=0.63；p=0.03）之间存在直接相关性。第三组患者经过两个疗程的化疗后，发现血象中的白细胞水平与血液生化检验中的天冬氨酸氨基转移酶活性（r=0.93；p=0.02）和丙氨酸氨基转移酶（r=0.93；p=0.02）之间存在高度的直接相关性。苯达莫司汀±利妥昔单抗化疗方案具有较高的安全性。

Introduction. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is often characterized by various symptoms that result in behavioral changes in patients, among which sleep disturbances and avoidant behavior are commonly observed. However, despite evidence indicating a complex bilateral relationship between emotions and sleep, only few studies have explored the associations between sleep disturbances and avoidant behavior in the context of PTSD. The aim of the study is to assess the severity of avoidant behaviour and insomnia in combatants with posttraumatic stress disorder. Materials and methods. We conducted a clinical study of 45 combatants who were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (n=24) included combatants with PTSD; group 2 (n=21) consisted of combatants without PTSD. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Questionnaire was used to analyse sleep quality, namely subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, sleep efficiency, sleep disturbances, sleep medication use, and daily dysfunction. Avoidance behavior was measured using a multidimensional experience avoidance questionnaire. Results. We found that group 1 demonstrated worse subjective sleep quality (p=0.002), longer sleep latency (p<0.001), lower sleep efficiency (p=0.019) and more severe sleep disturbances (p<0.001). There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of sleep duration, severity of sleeping pills use, and daily dysfunction. The overall severity of sleep quality disorders was higher in group 1 compared to group 2 (p<0.001). Avoidance behavior (p=0.007) and repression and denial (p<0.001) were more pronounced in group 1 compared to group 2. At the same time, group 1 had lower stress endurance (p<0.001). The overall level of experiental avoidance in group 1 was higher than in group 2 (p<0.001). Numerous associations between sleep quality characteristics and experiental avoidance were found as well. Conclusions. The study has revealed that combatants with PTSD have more pronounced manifestations of behavioural avoidance, repression and denial, as well as a lower level of stress endurance. At the same time, combatants with PTSD demonstrate a deterioration in the subjective quality of sleep, a decrease in its effectiveness and an increase in the severity of its disturbances. It has been found that avoidance behavior in combatants has numerous connections with the characteristics of sleep quality that may be suggested as a potential factor for improving psychotherapeutic interventions.

Acute myocardial infarction is a critical condition associated with significant morbidity and mortality rates. Myocardial infarction-related acute myocardial injury is characterized by a rapid elevation and subsequent decline in cardiac troponin concentration. According to the relevant data patients with multiple myeloma are in a high-risk category for venous and arterial thrombosis. Therefore, the incidence of cardiovascular complications, which include myocardial infarction, in these patients is higher than in the general population. The development of metaplastic anemia further compounds this risk by diminishing myocardial oxygen supply. Moreover, chemotherapy for oncohematological diseases carries the potential for cardiotoxic cardiovascular complications. Immunomodulator drugs like Thalidomide and Lenalidomide, frequently utilized in multiple myeloma treatment, have been associated with Lenalidomide-induced myocardial infarction—a prevalent adverse effect. The use of proteasome inhibitors such as Bortezomib and Carfilzomib poses an increased risk for myocardial infarction development. This clinical case presents an instance of acute myocardial infarction in a multiple myeloma patient during low cumulative chemotherapy dosage, comprising Lenalidomide and Bortezomib. It underscores the necessity for enhanced clinical, instrumental, and laboratory monitoring before each specific chemotherapy course in high-risk multiple myeloma patients. Such monitoring facilitates the early detection of chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxic effects, allowing for timely intervention and management.

Introduction. Recent studies are increasing the amount of evidence suggesting that the circadian system is disrupted in Parkinson's disease that can lead to poor sleep. Currently, international guidelines for managing non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease do not have recommendations with proven efficacy, but only methods with potential benefit. Two of the most widely available methods for correcting poor sleep quality in patients with Parkinson's disease in Ukraine are sleep hygiene training, also known as somnoeducation, and melatonin administration. The aim of the study is to compare the state of circadian characteristics before and after the correction of poor sleep quality in patients with Parkinson's disease in the context of sleep hygiene and an integrated approach with the implementation of chronotherapy using melatonin. Materials and methods. We conducted a clinical trial at the Centre for Patients with Parkinson's Disease and Other Neurodegenerative Diseases, which included 34 patients with poor sleep quality who were randomised into 2 groups: group 1a (n = 17) consisted of patients with Parkinson's disease who followed sleep hygiene rules and received chronotherapy; group 1b (n = 17) involved patients with Parkinson's disease who followed sleep hygiene rules but did not take any medications to improve sleep. Circadian characteristics were analysed using the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire. Results. Our study has found that the correction of poor sleep quality by introducing sleep hygiene into the treatment process of patients with Parkinson's disease demonstrates a shift in the time of sleep onset and mid-sleep to earlier, accompanied by a shift in chronotypes towards earlier, as well as an increase in sleep duration against a decrease in the time spent in bed, which led to an increase in the average actual sleep efficiency. At the same time, melatonin supplementation helps to reduce sleep latency in Parkinson's disease. Conclusions. Adherence to sleep hygiene recommendations contributes to changes in circadian characteristics and improves sleep efficiency in patients with Parkinson's disease, regardless of melatonin administration. Additional use of melatonin to correct the quality of sleep for 1 month is accompanied by a reduction in the sleep latency period.

Diabetes mellitus has become one of the most prevalent chronic diseases in childhood today. International forecasts suggest that the incidence of diabetes will continue to rise in the coming decades, leading to a lifelong burden for millions of children worldwide. Therefore, prediction, prevention, and optimal treatment of diabetes, as well as early prevention of serious long-term complications, remain essential. Providing highly qualified medical care to diabetic patients is a crucial step in preventing the development of complications. The purpose of this article is to review existing research on diabetes prevention strategies for children, considering the different levels of medical care support available. Materials and Methods. This study investigates the organization of preventive care for children with diabetes in Ukraine. Researchers employed three key methods: bibliosemantic analysis, content analysis focused on analyzing Ukraine relevant regulations and legal frameworks, and the method of systemic approach and analysis to gain a comprehensive understanding of how preventive care is currently organized for children with diabetes in Ukraine. Results. In Ukraine, preventive measures and the provision of medical care to pediatric patients with diabetes in the past years and today are regulated by a number of documents and orders of the Ministry of Health. As part of the Comprehensive Program “Diabetes Mellitus” (1999) and in accordance with the Order of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine “On Improving the Organization of Providing Endocrinological Care to the Population of Ukraine” (2006), the State Register of Patients with Diabetes Mellitus (SYNADIAB) was created. The next step was the approval of the State Target Program “Diabetes Mellitus”. Subsequently, the Project of the national program “Health 2020: Ukrainian Dimension” became an effective tool, which outlined the main principles of the program implementation in the “Endocrinology” section for 2013-2020. It defined measures at all stages of diabetes prevention, such as primary prevention, which consists of maintaining and strengthening the general state of health and preventing or delaying the development of diabetes; secondary prevention should improve early detection of diabetes mellitus; tertiary prevention, which ensures the effectiveness and safety of treatment of children with diabetes to prevent the development of long-term complications. Today, the guidelines for the management of children with diabetes mellitus have been continued in such documents as “Diabetes Mellitus in Children”, Evidence-Based Clinical Guidelines (2023) and Standards of Care (2023). Conclusion.

The human circulatory system has historically captivated researchers in the field of medicine. Modern medicine, however, has moved beyond identifying a single crucial element, such as the heart or venous system, for maintaining blood flow. Instead, it emphasizes a more analytical approach, focusing on the interconnected functioning of all components within the system. The aim of this work is to analyze the existing methods of studying blood microcirculation and to improve the technology of capillaroscopy, technical means of raster microphotography to determine the physiological state and disorders of capillary circulation. To achieve this objective, we address the following tasks: analyzing existing non-invasive methods for studying the human vascular system; enhancing the optical capillaroscopy method through the utilization of modern high-resolution digital cameras, computer, and multimedia equipment, along with appropriate software for analyzing electronic images; developing a technological scheme and equipment design for digital microphotography of capillaries in the periungual region of the upper extremities; providing software solutions for registering and analyzing digital microphotographic images obtained through capillaroscopy; conducting experimental studies to explore the structure and properties of capillaries utilizing the developed technologies and equipment. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables the comprehensive evaluation of both anatomical and functional aspects of blood flow. Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) capitalizes on the distinction between the signal emitted by moving tissue (blood) and that of surrounding stationary tissue, facilitating the acquisition of vascular images without the need for radiopaque contrast agents. Ultrasonography integrates Doppler and conventional ultrasound techniques, providing physicians with insights into blood vessel structure and blood flow dynamics. Traditional ultrasound employs sound waves that are imperceptible to the human ear and bounce off blood vessels, while Doppler ultrasound measures the velocity of sound wave reflection from moving elements. Ophthalmoscopy constitutes a fundamental component of standard ophthalmological examinations, serving as a pivotal tool for diagnosing eye conditions and evaluating the condition of blood vessels. Additionally, ophthalmoscopy aids in diagnosing autoimmune disorders. Capillaroscopy enables comprehensive assessments of both systemic and regional microcirculation disorders, facilitating the characterization of tissue metabolism.

人体循环系统历来吸引着医学领域的研究人员。然而，现代医学已不再局限于确定心脏或静脉系统等维持血液流动的单一关键要素。取而代之的是，它强调一种更具分析性的方法，重点关注系统内所有组成部分的相互关联功能。这项工作的目的是分析研究血液微循环的现有方法，并改进毛细血管镜技术，即利用光栅显微照相技术手段来确定毛细血管循环的生理状态和紊乱情况。为实现这一目标，我们将完成以下任务：分析现有的研究人体血管系统的非侵入性方法；通过利用现代高分辨率数码相机、计算机和多媒体设备以及适当的电子图像分析软件，改进光学毛细血管镜检查方法；开发用于对上肢掌周毛细血管进行数字显微摄影的技术方案和设备设计；提供用于登记和分析通过毛细血管镜检查获得的数字显微摄影图像的软件解决方案；利用开发的技术和设备开展实验研究，探索毛细血管的结构和特性。磁共振成像（MRI）可对血流的解剖和功能方面进行全面评估。磁共振血管造影术（MRA）利用运动组织（血液）发出的信号与周围静止组织发出的信号之间的区别，无需使用不透射线的造影剂即可获取血管图像。超声造影结合了多普勒和传统超声技术，可让医生深入了解血管结构和血流动态。传统超声波利用人耳无法感知的声波从血管反弹，而多普勒超声波则测量声波从移动部件反射的速度。眼底镜检查是标准眼科检查的基本组成部分，是诊断眼部疾病和评估血管状况的重要工具。此外，眼底镜还有助于诊断自身免疫性疾病。毛细血管镜可对全身和区域性微循环障碍进行全面评估，有助于确定组织代谢的特征。毛细血管功能失调会造成循环障碍，导致血液淤滞、新陈代谢失调和免疫力下降，从而加重现有疾病，并使人容易患上新的疾病。光学电脑毛细血管镜提供了一种可视化、检查和存档毛细血管图像的无创手段，使临床医生能够对血液微循环做出明智的评估。使用一名接受胰岛素治疗长达 10 年的 II 型糖尿病患者的甲床毛细血管，对优化的硬件和软件毛细血管镜系统进行了实验验证。这项研究强调了利用高分辨率相机传感器和现代图像处理计算工具完善和改进光学毛细血管镜检查方法的重要性。

Kuznetsova","doi":"10.31718/2077-1096.24.2.257","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31718/2077-1096.24.2.257","url":null,"abstract":"The human circulatory system has historically captivated researchers in the field of medicine. Modern medicine, however, has moved beyond identifying a single crucial element, such as the heart or venous system, for maintaining blood flow. Instead, it emphasizes a more analytical approach, focusing on the interconnected functioning of all components within the system. The aim of this work is to analyze the existing methods of studying blood microcirculation and to improve the technology of capillaroscopy, technical means of raster microphotography to determine the physiological state and disorders of capillary circulation. \u0000To achieve this objective, we address the following tasks: analyzing existing non-invasive methods for studying the human vascular system; enhancing the optical capillaroscopy method through the utilization of modern high-resolution digital cameras, computer, and multimedia equipment, along with appropriate software for analyzing electronic images; developing a technological scheme and equipment design for digital microphotography of capillaries in the periungual region of the upper extremities; providing software solutions for registering and analyzing digital microphotographic images obtained through capillaroscopy; conducting experimental studies to explore the structure and properties of capillaries utilizing the developed technologies and equipment. \u0000Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables the comprehensive evaluation of both anatomical and functional aspects of blood flow. Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) capitalizes on the distinction between the signal emitted by moving tissue (blood) and that of surrounding stationary tissue, facilitating the acquisition of vascular images without the need for radiopaque contrast agents. Ultrasonography integrates Doppler and conventional ultrasound techniques, providing physicians with insights into blood vessel structure and blood flow dynamics. Traditional ultrasound employs sound waves that are imperceptible to the human ear and bounce off blood vessels, while Doppler ultrasound measures the velocity of sound wave reflection from moving elements. Ophthalmoscopy constitutes a fundamental component of standard ophthalmological examinations, serving as a pivotal tool for diagnosing eye conditions and evaluating the condition of blood vessels. Additionally, ophthalmoscopy aids in diagnosing autoimmune disorders. Capillaroscopy enables comprehensive assessments of both systemic and regional microcirculation disorders, facilitating the characterization of tissue metabolism. Dysfunction in capillary function contributes to circulatory impairments, leading to blood stasis, metabolic irregularities, and compromised immunity, thereby exacerbating existing conditions and predisposing individuals to new diseases.

This study aims at investigating the impact of water-soluble form of quercetin on the pathomorphological characteristics of the mandibular bone in rats following its incomplete fracture under chronic alcohol intoxication was investigated. Fourteen white male Wistar rats weighing 190-240 g were randomly divided into two groups: Group 1 comprised rats with incomplete mandibular fractures under chronic alcohol intoxication; animals in Group 2 received daily intraperitoneal injections of water-soluble quercetin (corvitin) in a dose of 10 mg/kg of quercetin for 14 days following the injury induction. It has been shown that chronic alcohol intoxication hinders reparative regeneration of bone tissue after an incomplete mandibular fracture, and is accompanied by a decrease in the relative amount of reticulofibrous bone tissue and fibroblastic cellular elements at the injury site, especially mature fibroblasts, as well as by delayed maturation of granulation tissue. Under experimental conditions, quercetin administration significantly contributed to normalizing the regenerative process by the 14th day of the posttraumatic period. This normalization was evidenced by increased relative amounts of reticulofibrous bone tissue, prevalence of fibroblastic cells in granulation tissue, and accelerated formation of the regenerate blood microcirculatory channel.

The sources of superoxide anion radical (.О ) in the tissues of the small intestine in rats subjected to surgical trauma simulated under an experimental model of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were investigated. The study involved 42 white Wistar rats weighing 210-230 g, divided into 6 groups: group 1 comprised intact animals, group 2 included animals with the PTSD induced through single-prolonged stress (SPS), group 3 consisted of rats subjected to a sham surgical operation, group 4 comprised animals undergoing laparotomy, group 5 involved rats undergoing a sham surgical operation following SPS, and group 6 included animals undergoing laparotomy under modeled SPS. The rate of .О generation in the small intestine homogenate was measured spectrophotometrically using the nitroblue tetrazolium test. The .О production by NADPH-dependent (microsomal and NO synthase) electron transport chains (ETC), NADH-dependent (mitochondrial) ETC and leukocyte NADPH oxidase was assessed. The findings obtained have demonstrated that experimental SPS modeling leads to an increase in oxidative stress in the small intestine tissues of rats. This is manifested by an increase in the rate of .О formation with the participation of microsomes, mitochondria and leukocyte NADPH oxidase. On the 7th day after laparotomy under the experimental PTSD model, the .О production in the tissues of the small intestine by different sources (microsomes, mitochondria and leukocyte NADPH oxidase) exceeds their values obtained after a single laparotomy or after performing a sham operation under single long-term stress.

This study addresses the pressing scientific and practical issue in modern dentistry: enhancing dental care effectiveness for patients with chronic rheumatic heart disease. The purpose of this research is to comprehensively assess the condition of tooth-supporting tissues and quantify inflammatory phenomena in periodontal tissues among patients with chronic rheumatic heart disease, as well as to determine the necessary extent of periodontal care based on periodontal indices. Participants and methods. The periodontal tissues of 719 patients with chronic rheumatic heart disease from the Rheumatology Department of Lviv Regional Clinical Hospital, along with 290 clinically healthy individuals in the comparison group, were examined. To evaluate the clinical course of dystrophic-inflammatory periodontal diseases in patients with chronic rheumatic heart disease, we examined 267 individuals in the main group who had generalized periodontitis, categorized as follows: 42 patients with initial stage (I degree), 115 with moderate (II degree), and 110 with severe (III degree) periodontitis. The comparison group comprised 70 patients diagnosed with generalized periodontitis, among them, 21 had initial-stage disease, 29 had moderate-stage disease, and 20 had severe-stage disease. During the analysis, the oral hygiene was assessed by applying hygienic indices by J.C. Green and J.R. Vermillion (OHI-S, 1964) and Fedorov-Volodkina. The Muhlemann and Son index was used to objectively measure gingival papillary bleeding (RVI); the papillary-marginal-alveolar index (PMA) in the Parma modification, in combination with the Schiller-Pysarev test (1989), was employed to evaluate gingival inflammation. The periodontal index (PI) by A.L. Russel (1956) was used to assess the state of periodontal tissues, and pathological changes were recorded using the periodontal screening PSR test. Results were scored, and based on established criteria and scores, the need for treatment and its extent were determined. Results and discussion. According to the results of dental examinations in patients with chronic rheumatic heart disease, a high prevalence of periodontal diseases was found, reaching 92.49%. This was 13.18% higher compared to the prevalence in the control group. Dystrophic-inflammatory conditions with advanced severity levels were predominant, as evidenced by the index indicators. In chronic rheumatic heart disease patients, the average periodontal index was 6.11±0.10, compared to 4.14±0.19 in clinically healthy individuals (p < 0.05). Moreover, a higher lesion of periodontal tissues was observed in younger age groups. As the duration of rheumatic disease increased, the frequency of detecting generalized periodontitis also increased, with this condition being diagnosed in all subjects with a 10-year history of rheumatic disease.
