BACKGROUND: The problem of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of fat liver disease (FLD) is one of the actual problems of modern medicine. In this regard, the need for the creation of reliable experimental models of the FLD, which would be as close as possible to the pathogenetic patterns of the development of this disease in humans.AIM: To create an experimental model of FLD and compare the efficiency of its reproduction in rats of different ages.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was conducted on male Wistar rats, whose ages at the beginning of the experiment were 3 and 18 months. Control animals were fed a standard diet. The experimental rats were kept on a diet with excess fat (45 %) and carbohydrates (31 %) for 12 weeks. The liver tissue samples were taken for morphological studies of FLD. Histological preparations were made according to the standard technique. Morphometry on digital images of micropreparations was conducted using the computer program «IMAGE J». The concentration of lipids, cholesterol, and triglecerides in the liver tissue was determined, and the concentration of ALT in the blood serum was determined. To assess the biophysical properties of the liver tissue, the method of multifrequency bioimpedance measurement was used.RESULTS: The transfer of animals to a high-calorie diet developed by us led to the development of FLD. This was evidenced by an increase of the liver mass, its pale shade and soft consistency. Morphometric signs of FLD were also revealed. Hypertrophy of hepatocytes was observed with a simultaneous decrease in the nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio; accumulation of numerous lipid inclusions in the cytoplasm and the appearance of large lipid droplets replacing the voids of dead hepatocytes. The number of binuclear hepatocytes and nucleolus in the nucleus, the relative area of the sinusoid network were decreased. An increase in the concentration of lipids, cholesterol and triglecerides in the liver tissue of experimental rats, as well as the activity of ALT in the blood serum, was observed. Changes in the bioimpedance measurements of the liver tissue also indicated the development of severe fatty degeneration of the liver in both young (to a greater extent) and old rats.CONCLUSION: The model of FLD we have advanced based on a combined (fat-carbohydrate) high-calorie diet. It leads to the development of pronounced morphological, biochemical and biophysical signs of this pathology in all experimental rats. The most pronounced manifestations of FLD are observed in young animals.

The main goal of bariatric surgery is weight loss due to fundamental differential changes in the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the gastrointestinal tract. At the same time, one of the most frequent complications of obesity surgery, especially operations associated with malabsorption, is vitamin D deficiency. Patients with obesity initially have a wide range of predisposing factors for metabolic diseases of the skeleton due to lifestyle problems. Nutrient deficiencies with high-calorie diets and a sedentary lifestyle with a tendency to wear clothing that covers most of the skin — reduces serum 25 (OH) D levels. In addition, the situation is aggravated by a decrease in the bioavailability of 25 (OH) D due to its sequestration in adipose tissue and its complete inaccessibility to the central blood flow. The consequences of bariatric surgery — a decrease in the amount of skin and malabsorption can aggravate the existing deficiency. As a result of a decrease in the level of 25 (OH) D and subsequent hypocalcemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism, negatively affect the state of bone health. The presented literature review is devoted to the problems of obesity surgery and vitamin D deficiency. The main focus is on bone metabolism associated with bariatric surgery, the causes of pre and postoperative vitamin D deficiency are discussed, and recommendations for its treatment after obesity surgery are given.

BACKGROUND: In the Russian Federation, the incidence of obesity continues to grow among the child population. Vegetative imbalance and chronic stress play an important role in the pathogenesis of obesity and related health disorders. Timely identification of disorders of psycho-vegetative disorders and their correction in overweight children require an integrated approach of medical and pedagogical workers.AIM: To reveal the features of the vegetative status, the level of school anxiety in students with an increased body mass index.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Children with different body mass index (BMI) underwent a comparative analysis of the mean values and structure of revealed violations of cardiointervalography (heart rate variability, HRV) parameters, laboratory test parameters (plasma antioxidant activity, plasma malondialdehyde, triglycerides, total cholesterol, cortisol, magnesium and serotonin) and test parameters School Anxiety Scale of Phillips.RESULTS: The prevalence of overweight was 23.1%. The observation group consisted of 47 schoolchildren with a body mass index (BMI) +1–2 SD the comparison group consisted of 156 children with a normal BMI at the age of 10–15 years. The groups were comparable in terms of sex and age (p=0.629–0.771). Analysis of background HVR indices revealed a decrease in the values of parameters characterizing the activity of the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), with a simultaneous increase in the indicators of the sympathetic division of the ANS in the observation group relative to the comparison group (p=0.001–0.023); similar results were obtained during the orthostatic test. The cumulative assessment of CIG indicates a lower activity of the parasympathetic division in the regulation of the state of rest and a greater activity of the sympathetic division of the ANS in response to a stress factor in children with an increased BMI value. The children of the observation group showed higher levels of malondialdehyde (p = 0.041), triglycerides (p<0.001) and cortisol (p=0.093) with lower values of magnesium and serotonin (p=0.074–0.076). The analysis of the level of school anxiety showed that in children of the observation group the average level and frequency of the prevalence of high values of the indicator of general anxiety are higher in 1.3 and 2.5 (p=0.005), fear of self-expression — in 1.3 and 1.8 (p=0.080–0.086), fear of the situation of knowledge testing — by 1.5 (р=0.002) and 2.1 (p<0.001), the level of general anxiety — by 1.2 (р=0.090) and 2.3 times (p=0.036) relative to the comparison group. In the course of the mathematical analysis, the results were obtained indicating the relationship between the parameters of the vegetative and psychological status.CONCLUSION: The problem of excess nutrition remains an urgent issue of modern health care.

AIMS. Study of the dynamics of brain activity using functional MRI (fMRI) in obese patients treated with sibutramine (Reduxine®).MATERIALS AND METHODS. The study enrolled patients with a body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2 . All participants underwent initial brain fMRI mapping. The obesity cohort was treated with sibutramine at a dose of 10 or 15 mg per day for 3 months. After treatment patients with obesity underwent a second fMRI mapping to assess changes against the initial mapping.RESULTS. The study included: 30 patients (86,7% women) with mean age of 31 [27.25; 36] years, mean body weight (BW) - 106 [95.75; 121.75] kg, mean BMI 37.4 [33.55; 41.9] kg/m2 , mean waist circumference (WC) - 109 [100; 114.75] cm. The most marked activation volume (via fMRI) was observed in patients with obesity (before treatment) in the visual cortex (occipital lobes). After 3 months of treatment with sibutramine, 80% of patients lose ≥5% of BW. Mean BW decrease was -7.2 [-13.46; -5.37] kg, BMI decrease — -7.2 [-13.49; -5.34] кг/м2 , WC decrease — -6.9 [-11.88; -4.03] см, p <0,05. According to fMRI data, a decrease in brain activation in the projection of the occipital lobes (35%), left insula (44%), and increase inactivation by 70% in the area of the left DMPF.CONCLUSION. A dynamic study of brain activity using fMRI in obese patients showed that during treatment with sibutramine, a decrease in body weight is accompanied by a decrease in activation in the projection of the occipital lobes and the left insular lobe of the brain, and an increase in activation in the area of the left DMPFC. These data may indicate a decrease in the emotional perception of high-calorie food, a decrease in motivation to eat it, and an increase in cognitive control. In general, the noted dynamics of the functional activity of the brain in obese patients against the background of obesity therapy can be regarded as a change in previously formed patterns of eating behavior.

Patients with chronic kidney disease are characterized by the development of mineral disorders due to a decrease in the number of functioning nephrons. These changes manifest by the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism (the overproduction of intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) associated with the serum hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia), dysfunctional vitamin D metabolism, bone mineralization and also extraosseous calcifications. Decreased serum PTH levels associated with hypercalcemia are suspicious for adynamic bone disease, but at the same time requires an extended differential diagnostic search (e.g. metastatic processes). One of the rare causes of hypercalcemia is a defect in 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1). We present a case of a patient on hemodialysis with atypical secondary hyperparathyroidism and an established CYP24A1 defect.

Background: Obesity is considered a global epidemic and is one of the most significant medical and social problems. Research in recent years shows that in 25-45% of cases of obesity, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is detected. The influence of obesity on the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders in this category of patients remains controversialAims: to determine the frequency and structure of metabolic disorders in obese women in combination with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Materials and methods: A single-center cross-sectional sample survey of women of reproductive age was conducted. The study included clinical anthropometry with measurement of body weight, height, waist circumference (OT) and hip circumference (OB), followed by calculation of body mass index (BMI) and OT/OB ratio, and measurement of blood pressure (BP). A biochemical blood test was performed, the hormonal status was examined, and an ultrasound examination of the pelvic organs was performed.Results: A survey of 136 women of reproductive age was conducted. Group 1 included obese women without PCOS (59 patients), group 2 included obese women in combination with PCOS (45 patients), and the control group included 38 healthy women. Group 1 included obese women without PCOS (59 patients), and group 2 included obese women with PCOS (45 patients), in the control group — 38 healthy women. Among group 2 patients, dyslipidemia, visceral obesity, arterial hypertension, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, and hyperuricemia were significantly more common (p<0,05). Correlations between BMI and triglycerides, testosterone and total cholesterol were found (p<0,05). Obese and PCOS patients had significantly higher levels of C-reactive protein(CRP), fibrinogen, anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), and hepatic transaminases (p<0,05). Vitamin D deficiency was detected in 13,2% of patients, and insufficiency — in 22,7% of patients. There is a statistically significant correlation between the level of 25 (OH)D and indicators of BMI, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone (p<0,05), the level of AMH (p=0,008).Conclusions: A high frequency of metabolic disorders in obese women in combination with PCOS has been identified, which necessitates early screening, diagnosis and treatment of these disorders to strengthen reproductive health and prevent chronic non-communicable diseases.

Obesity is a chronic disease characterized by excessive accumulation of adipose tissue. The prevalence of obesity and associated diseases has prompted researchers to expand the study of the biology of adipose tissue. New technologies have significantly expanded the understanding of adipogenesis mechanisms, various aspects of lipid and glucose metabolism, as well as the paracrine and endocrine functions of adipose tissue. Adipose tissue is a complex, heterogeneous endocrine organ. The existence of several shades of adipocytes demonstrates their morphological and functional heterogeneity. The main function of white adipose tissue is to store energy. Brown and white adipocytes perform a predominantly thermogenic function. Bone marrow (yellow) adipose tissue regulates the processes of bone remodeling and hematopoiesis. Pink adipocytes are formed during pregnancy and satisfy the energy needs of the offspring. The study of the biology of adipose tissue is crucial to understanding the pathophysiology of obesity and determining its molecular relationships with type 2 diabetes as well as cardiovascular and oncological diseases. The review presents current literature data on the origin, adipogenesis, and functional properties of adipose tissue depending on its cellular composition and localization. It outlines the nature of changes in adipose tissue in obesity and the clinical significance and therapeutic potential of various adipose tissue depots.

The prevalence of obesity and associated diseases has prompted researchers to expand the study of the biology of adipose tissue. New technologies have significantly expanded the understanding of adipogenesis mechanisms, various aspects of lipid and glucose metabolism, as well as the paracrine and endocrine functions of adipose tissue. Adipose tissue is a complex, heterogeneous endocrine organ. The existence of several shades of adipocytes demonstrates their morphological and functional heterogeneity. The main function of white adipose tissue is to store energy. Brown and white adipocytes perform a predominantly thermogenic function. Bone marrow (yellow) adipose tissue regulates the processes of bone remodeling and hematopoiesis. Pink adipocytes are formed during pregnancy and satisfy the energy needs of the offspring.

Background: The main components of mineral metabolism can influence non-classical target organs such as adipose tissue, pancreas, vascular wall. The «metabolic» effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and other participants of phosphorus-calcium metabolism in the hyperfunction of parathyroid glands remain unclear. The study of disorders of carbohydrate, fat and other types of metabolism in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) will help to develop effective measures for prophylaxis and treatment of the patients in order to improve the quality and life span of the population.Aim: To study the main parameters of metabolism in young patients with an active stage of PHPT before surgical treatment.Materials and methods: A one-stage comparative study of young patients with PHPT and healthy volunteers matched by sex, age and body mass index (BMI) was carried out. The participants underwent a comprehensive biochemical and hormonal examination, a hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp and a bioimpedance analysis of the body composition.Results: 21 patients with PHPT and 18 healthy volunteers were included in the study. Patients with PHPT have higher level of serum triglycerides (p=0.003) without statistically differences of the main carbohydrate and purine parameters comparing with the control group. Visceral obesity were revealed in 42.9% of patients, including those with a normal BMI. Insulin resistance in the PHPT group was noted in 52.4% of cases, while the M-index was statistically lower than in the control subgroup (p=0.008), despite of the comparable body composition of the participants. The M-index showed a positive correlation with blood phosphorus level (p=0.010) only in the general group. Statistically positive correlations of PTH, albumin-corrected calcium and osteocalcin with triglyceride levels, calcium with fasting glycaemia, and PTH with uric acid levels were determined.Conclusion: PHPT is associated with insulin resistance in patients that is the main risk factor for the development of serious carbohydrate and fat disorders. The positive correlation of PTH and blood calcium levels with triglycerides, as well as the tendency to hypertriglyceridemia comparing with healthy volunteers, suggest the disease effect on the development of dyslipidemia.

This review article presents data from the literature, which provide an idea of the relationship between metabolic disorders occurring against the background of obesity and endotoxinemia, as well as the effect of these conditions on the maintenance of low-grade inflammation in the body. A description of the hormonal and immune restructuring of white adipose tissue, the main routes of entry and metabolism of endotoxin is given. Particular attention is paid to the mechanisms of the mutual influence of obesity and endotoxinemia. Described by Yakovlev M.Yu. in 1988 «endotoxin aggression» and Cani P.D. et al. in 2007, «metabolic endotoxinemia», in our opinion, is one of the most important triggers for the development and progression of a whole spectrum of acute and chronic diseases. Based on the data of recent years, adipose tissue is an active endocrine organ capable of influencing both metabolic processes and the state of innate and acquired immune defense mechanisms. It has now been proven that high-calorie diets lead not only to an increase in overweight, but also to an increase in the level of endotoxin circulating in the blood. An in-depth study of the ability of obesity and endotoxinemia to potentiate the mutual pro-inflammatory effect can help both in understanding the pathogenesis of the main cardiovascular, autoimmune, allergic and infectious (including viral) diseases, and in the development of methods for non-pharmacological and drug correction of these conditions.
