Design: Open cohort controlled prospective study. Materials and methods. 76 people were examined. Group 1 included 32 patients with COPD exacerbation, 18 of them were re-examined before discharge and completed a survey 3 months after discharge from the hospital. Group 2 consisted of 15 patients with stable COPD. Group 3 included 29 healthy individuals. PIF using various inhalers was studied using the In-Check DIALTM G16 Clement Clarke International Limited (Great Britain), fixing the level without resistance (R0) and 5 levels of resistance (R1–R5). Suboptimal PIF (sPIF) values were considered at R0 < 90, R1–R4 < 60, R5 < 30 l/min. Spirometry was performed on a Flowscreen II spirometer (Jaeger) with a flow-volume curve recording, calculation of generally accepted indicators, and on a PTS-14P-01 pressure-tachospirograph to determine the peak inspiratory rate. Statistical data processing was carried out using the Statistica v. 10. According to the Bonferroni principle, differences were considered significant at p < 0.005. Results. During exacerbation of COPD, a decrease in PIF from 120 to 40 l/min (p < 0.001 compared with the control) and the presence of sPIF in 5–75% of cases, depending on the type of inhalation device, were revealed (no sPIF was noted in the control). Most patients were free to use a nebulizer, a metered-dose aerosol inhaler (MAI), a liquid inhaler (Respimat) and a breathhaler upon admission to the hospital. Patients could not create the necessary inspiratory effort when using the ellipt in 47% of cases, turbuhaler — in 63%, nexthaler — in 75%, handihaler — in 31%. With proven positive clinical and functional dynamics during treatment (increase in FEV1 from 37% (28; 53) to 55% (37; 62), p < 0.004), the identified changes persisted by the time of discharge from the hospital and did not reach the values of PIF and sPIF, determined in stable COPD. Analysis of PIF and sPIF in patients in real clinical practice, depending on the drugs received, showed that by the time they were discharged from the hospital, half of the patients had sPIF, continued to use turbuhaler and handihaler inhalers, and were not able to create an adequate PIF for effective inhalation of drugs. A survey of patients 3 months after discharge from the hospital showed that patients with optimal PIF values, who used drugs with the help of PPI, Respimat and Breezhaler, did not have exacerbations within the indicated periods. Patients with CPIP who continued to use the combination of turbuhaler and handihaler had moderate exacerbations. Conclusion.

GDM is recognized as an independent risk factor for the development of PE, and this risk is the greater the less GDM is compensated. Polycystic ovary syndrome and an increased body mass index as concomitant factors of metabolic disorders also increase the risk of developing PE.

Design: Comparative group retrospective and prospective study. Materials and methods. The study included patients (n = 81) who underwent a planned cesarean section under spinal anesthesia (SA). The control group consisted of 38 maternity hospitals, in which PP was conducted traditionally. In the main group, 43 maternity hospitals were conducted according to the accelerated recovery program: refusal of mechanical intestinal cleansing, glucose-containing drink 2 hours before surgery, antibiotic prophylaxis 1 hour before surgery (cefazolin 2 g intravenously). Blood sampling and examination of the structural and dynamic parameters of the erythrocyte membranes of the patients' blood were carried out at different stages of PP: before CA, after the development of CA, by the end of the operation; umbilical cord blood was also examined. Results. In the control group, the polarity of annular and total lipids, as well as the microviscosity of total lipids, did not significantly change at different stages of Cesarean section. By the end of the operation, the fluidity of annular lipids increased by 24% and the parameter of the efficiency of the transfer of excitation energy from tryptophan residues of erythrocyte membrane proteins by umbilical cord blood to pyrene ((F0–F)/F0) increased by 11%. In the main group, after the development of CA and by the end of the operation, the index (F0–F)/F0 in the membranes of red blood cells decreased by 10%; the fluidity of annular lipids increased to CA and by the end of the operation by 25%, after the development of CA — by 30% relative to the control group to CA. The dissociation constants of 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate with plasma proteins and erythrocyte membranes in the control group up to CA differ significantly: Kd2 is 5.34 times greater than Kd1. The number of binding centers in erythrocytes is 12 times less than in plasma proteins. Conclusion. The concept of PUV, which promotes rapid recovery of the patient, can prevent the intensification of oxidative-inflammatory processes, which allows the development of new therapeutic methods to improve the rheological properties of blood in many clinical conditions.

Design: Prospective study. Materials and methods. The study included a survey of 210 patients of fertile age. Among them were 150 patients with human papillomavirus (HPV) and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, established by histological examination. Patients underwent Pap test, extended colposcopy, determination of HPV type and viral load. Patients with suspected pathology of the cervical zone underwent multifocal biopsy of the cervix. When analyzing changes in the cervix zone, the levels of interferon-γ, interleukin-18, caspase 3 and 9 were evaluated. Results. Among patients with cervical neoplasia of the first degree, the concentration of caspase 3, caspase 9 and interferon-γ at the first stage of the examination was higher (p < 0.05) than the values in the control group (among conditionally healthy women without viral load), while interleukin-18 was significantly lower (p < 0.05). In subgroups I and II, after 3 and 12 months, the concentrations of the studied parameters significantly differed from those in the control group and values before treatment (p < 0.05), while, after 12 months, the values of caspase 3 and caspase 9 in the subgroup where therapy was carried out (subgroup II) were significantly lower than in subgroup I. Also, among the patients, there was a statistical difference in the values of the cytokine series, however, the level of interleukin-18 in subgroup II after 10 days and 12 months was significantly higher than in subgroup I. fluctuations in indicators made it possible to justify the use of immunocorrective therapy for the treatment of a mild neoplastic process of the cervical zone.

Design: Observational study. Materials and methods. The subjects of the research were a pregnant woman at 12-week gestation randomly selected from 5 maternity hospitals in Yerevan. 268 pregnant women were eligible for inclusion in this observational study and created a total group. After birth, mothers were divided into groups of full-term (n = 239) and premature (n = 29) babies. We analysed baseline demographics, health information of the mother, history of pregnancy and delivery, as well as health information of babies. We assessed the presence of depressive symptoms with a Beck Depression Inventory and situational and individual anxiety levels with the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Results. Assessment of the psychological status demonstrated a high level of state anxiety: 26.7 ± 1.4 and 45.8 ± 1.5 points in mothers of full-term and premature babies, respectively; in mothers of premature babies, the value was significantly higher (р < 0.05). Personal anxiety was relatively inert, there were no significant differences between the groups (p > 0.05). Depressive symptoms were also more pronounced in preterm mothers (moderate depression) than in term birth mothers (mild mood disturbance): 22.5 ± 0.8 points vs. 11.4 ± 0.9 points (p < 0.01). The majority of women (68.3%) who had preterm delivery had a high level of state anxiety (р < 0.01 vs. mothers of full-term babies). Women who were ready to breastfeed longer after the baby is born had more marked signs of depression. In mothers full-term and premature babies, the attitude to breastfeeding before delivery demonstrated direct correlation with the level of depression on Beck depression inventory (r = 0.75, p = 0.02 and r = 0.68, p < 0.01, respectively). The degree of state anxiety in mothers of premature babies correlated with hospitalisation duration (r = 0.9, p = 0.008). Conclusions.
