The duration of the subacute experiment was 1.5 months, after which the animals were euthanized by decapitation. Comprehensive assessment of the hormonal status in white rats was carried out by radioisotope methods in the serum. The results showed reduced levels of folliculotropin and progesterone, increased levels of thyroxine, adrenocorticotropin, glucagon, triiodothyronine, thyrotropin and calcitonin, while insulin, somatostatin and serum glucose levels decreased. There was no change in the dynamics of the content of sex hormones - luteotropin, prolactin, testosterone compared with the control (P> 0.05). Furthermore, in the blood serum of rats, there was an increase in the levels of prostaglandin PGE2, prostacyclin (6 keto-PGF1a), leukotriene B4 and a decrease in the concentrations of prostaglandins PGE1, PGF2a and leukotriene C4. At all levels of the study of the endocrine system, deep shifts in the functional activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-cortical substance of the adrenal glands, thyroid gland, and sympatho-adrenal structures have been identified. Analysis of the detected changes in the hormonal status allows judging the nonspecific reaction of the body to fluoride intoxication and reflects the state of the protective-adaptive mechanisms, in which the hypothalamus, the thyroid gland and the adrenal glands play a large role. Changes in the dynamics of concentrations of hormones and histohormones reflected a significant stress of the protective-adaptive mechanisms, which, in terms of structural and functional units, led to disruption of metabolic processes, including those associated with the development of fluoride intoxication. Disruption of the balance of hormones and functioning of the endocrine organs and systems entails profound changes in the metabolic processes and the immunobiological reactivity of the organism, weakening the action of the protective-adaptive mechanisms in maintaining the homeostatic function.","PeriodicalId":32911,"journal":{"name":"Problemi ekologiyi ta meditsini","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43481543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the most actual issues of orthodontic correction in adults is teeth extractions by orthodontic. Nowadays, when there is a concept of «arch development», skeletal enlargement and miniimplants, treatment with extraction should be correctly explained and determined by orthodontic treatment and should not be caused to functional status and face aesthetics, which provides qualitative and stabile result of treatment. Besides, necessity of teeth extraction of some teeth which are written in medical protocol, secures a doctor from law risks. The aim of the investigation was to establish correlative link between parameters of morphometric analysis of control and diagnostic models of jaws by Snagina and roentgenologic parameters of lateral cephalometry by Kim. Adult patients aged from 18 to 32 years old (50) by the 1st class of dentofacial abnormalities and the degree of teeth crowding were involved in the investigation. Results. Indications to treatment with teeth extraction by skeletal and dentoalveolar parameters are different, although there is connection between skeletal parameters and the width of apical basis of maxilla. Skeletal and dentoalveolar morphometric parameters that are used for evaluation of extraction necessity of some teeth and planning for orthodontic treatment is always individual. Done correlation analysis determined that single parameter of apical basis that correlates with CF is its width on the maxilla. CF has direct correlative connection of midline (r=0.52) with width of apical basis. Skeletal diagnosis and facial aesthetics is leading factor in modern orthodontics. During treatment plan one should orient into aesthetic and functional prognosis, structure of facial skeleton, and after that dentoalveolar parameters.","PeriodicalId":32911,"journal":{"name":"Problemi ekologiyi ta meditsini","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41787002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study of the functional structure of the olfactory analyzer plays an important role both in clinical and in experimental studies, but the question of its features in humans needs detailed research. The paper presents the modern data of the structural and functional organization of the olfactory analyzer. Particular attention is paid to the structural organization of olfactory bulbs as most complicated and least studied component of the olfactory analyzer. The morphological and functional changes of the olfactory analyzer are developing in some diseases and in action of adverse environmental factors are described while the accentuation is placed on the differences of the mechanism in the pathogenesis of damage to the olfactory analyzer, depending on the nature of the influence of pathogenic factors. In this way as the result of short-term intense effects of the pollutant, irreversible atrophic changes are primarily affected to the olfactory epithelium, thus, to some extent, preventing the spread of the toxin to other analyzer structures. Conversely, a long-term exposure to low doses usually retains the functional activity of the olfactory epithelium, while harmful substances penetrate the central unit of the olfactory analyzer. In such cases, the olfactory dysfunction can be diagnosed after a long time after the start of the cohort with certain pollutants. Currently, studies of the influence of exogenous toxins on various parts of the olfactory analyzer on animal experimental models are quite active. At the same time, the issue of functional and morphological changes in various structural components of the human olfactory analyzer under the influence of negative environmental factors remains poorly understood and requires further morphological and biochemical studies, in order to be able to further develop effective therapeutic and prophylactic means.","PeriodicalId":32911,"journal":{"name":"Problemi ekologiyi ta meditsini","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43426649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a complex process, duration of which increases with transition from temporary to permanent bite. The main factor of orthodontic treatment is the cost of the procedure because there are new and modern tools and equipment. There are several ways to reduce orthodontic treatment: in the period of changing teeth, these are methods of corrective teeth extraction, based on the difference in the mesial-distal dimensions of milk (temporary) molars and method Hotz, replacing them with premolars, is the removal of individual healthy teeth according to the chosen treatment strategy bite disorders, compact osteotomy, the use of various physiotherapeutic methods without drugs and with the use of agents that promote bone tissue relaxation in combination with active physical factors and others related to the improvement of orthodontic appliances. The most significant factor in orthodontic treatment, resulting in a number of cases of interrupting the correction process, is its duration, up to 2-3 years in the period of permanent teeth. One more serious problem in orthodontic treatment associated with strategic choice of extraction or nonextraction method of treatment is stability of received clinical results. Only therapeutic prognosis of stabile morphological and functional clinical advantages of orthodontic treatment can be a basis for choice of orthodontic treatment management with the use of extraction of some healthy teeth. So, the problem of orthodontic treatment both in children and adults is one of the most important in bite correction. That’s why surgeries are involved in complex orthodontic treatment. Extraction of some permanent teeth is coordinated decision between patient and orthodontist considering the number of factors.

In the literary review, morphological and radiological diagnostic criteria of eruption of first permanent lower molars have been presented. Materials and methods of the research. The article reviews and analyzes literature on the etiology, pathogenesis, early diagnostics of retention of the lower first permanent molars. Results The analysis of the literature pointed to a small number of studies regarding the disrupted eruption of first lower permanent molars. In most cases, they are presented as clinical cases. According to the world literature, the prevalence of delayed eruption of the first molar of the mandible was 0.01% to 0.04%. Data from the world literature indicate that the retention of the lower first molar is a polyfactoral disease. According to the etiological factors authors distinguish general and local. Local factors causing delay in teeth eruption include impaired pathway for teeth eruption, abnormality of the tooth form, hyperplasia, displacement of the rudiment because of the cyst and the tumour, loss of space for eruption, gingival fibrosis, idiopathic conditions. Systemic factors include endocrine disorders such as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, rickets, craniofacial hypertrophy. In the literary review morphological and radiological diagnostic criteria of eruption disturbance of the first permanent lower molars are presented.

During the interview with parents, the effect of a combination of factors was found (i.e. avoiding referring to a dentist for the purpose of prevention or professional hygiene, neglecting the additional hygienic tools and methods and low awareness about them, regularity and balance of nutrition, lack of awareness concerning etiology of caries appearance, referring to a dentist only in case of toothache, anxiety during a visit to a dentist.

Among them are evasion of referring to a dentist for the purpose of prevention, lack of awareness concerning etiology of caries appearance, referring to a dentist only in case of toothache, anxiety during a visit to a dentist, low awareness concerning additional hygienic tools and methods. The combined effect of parental awareness and habits on the development of caries in children is much higher than the effect of the respective peculiarities of children. Thus, the analysis of caries appearance factors in children aged 7-12 years reveals the existence of close relationships between the alimentary, behavioral habits of parents and the appropriate habits of children and the development of pathological changes in the oral cavity of children which leads to the propagation of carious lesions.

Its wide spread at in-patient departments and also the presence of clinical probationary wards Staphylococcus aureus, resistant to methicillin at out-patient departments, deprive the doctors of effective means for control of the infection. Complications caused by MRSA lead to hospitalization and indices of lethality. The aim of the paper is to analyze the main factors of S. аureus virulence and ways the of its interaction as a result of etiological and pathogenetic treatment. Complexity of treatment of bacterial infections is determined by alternative ways of prevention and treatment of diseases to which bacteria are not able to develop resistance. Along with general mechanisms that form antibiotic resistance, S. aureus produces many individual virulence factors that model the immune response, affecting the survival of the microorganism. The virulence factors produced by S. aureus are diverse and have the ability not only to cause cell lysis, but also to stimulate tissue rejection and destruction. It is important to determine that many specific factors of virulence caused by S. aureus, have ability to change both congenital and adaptive immune reactions including inhibition of complement activation, neutrophils neutralization, phagocytes inhibition. Strategies for inhibiting virulence factors can range from using small inhibitor molecules or full-fledged antibodies to creating toxoids and virulence proteins. Great interest is focused upon those inhibitors that have cross-reactivity with respect to multiple virulence factors, as well as inhibitors, the main target of which is a global regulator with multi-purpose activity, for example, agr operon. Active research into the specific alternative antivirulent treatments for severe diseases caused by S. aureus can potentially settle a number of problems and difficulties of post-antibiotic era.","PeriodicalId":32911,"journal":{"name":"Problemi ekologiyi ta meditsini","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42551648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of the research. The paper was aimed at verification of the diagnostic value of the assessment of the outcomes of the recent treatment of inflammatory and inflammatory-dystrophic periodontal diseases in women of reproductive age with bacterial vaginosis by determining the changes in the kinetic activity of alpha- amylase and sIgA concentration. Material and Methods. 50 women of reproductive age have been examined. The subjects were assigned into groups according to their gynecological status: Group I (control) (n=10) included women with the I and II degree of purity of the vagina Group II (n=10) included carriers of Gardnerella vaginalis without diagnosed bacterial vaginosis ; Group ІІІ-A (n=15) included women with verified diagnosis of BV who received conventional treatment; Group IІІ-B (n=15) included women with BV, who received treatment using our patented treatment regimen that takes into account the presence of specific BV-microflora found in the oral cavity in this group of subjects. In the oral cavity the results of the amino-test of the oral fluid were analyzed and kinetic activity of alpha-amylase and sIgA concentration was determined. The presence of Gardnerella vaginalis and Atopobium vaginae in the oral cavity was determined by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. Results. The sIgA level of women with BV was by 30-45% lower as compared to the value of patients without BV. Concentration of oral sIgA in both groups of women was restored after treatment, but the results of the III-A and III-B groups after treatment significantly differed (the result of sIgA in subjects of Group III-B was by 1.33 times higher than the value of Group III-A), indicating the higher efficacy of the proposed treatment regimen, which takes into account the presence of etiological agents of BV in the oral cavity.

The sensitivity of planktonic forms of investigated strains to antiseptic agents was quantitatively evaluated by two-fold serial dilutions (macrodilution) in Sabouraud liquid nutrient medium. Biofilm-forming properties of clinical strains C. albicans and C. glabrata were assessed by using the Christensen’s spectrophotometric method (MtP-test “microtiter plate test”). The influence of the antiseptics on C. albicans and C. glabrata film forms was assessed by the reproduction of the biofilms according to the above-described procedure with adding antiseptics in sub-bacteriostatic concentrations and the subsequent spectrophotometric ODU assessment.
