Study Design: prospective cohort study. Materials and Methods. The study included 20 patients aged 18 to 75 years with an established diagnosis of chronic migraine medical overuse of symptomatic analgesics. We’re planning to apply a headache diary, several scales about various characteristics of headaches, the psychological state of patients, scales on lifestyle and quality of life, somatic pathology. Study Results. All patients were recommended to cancel the “guilty” analgesic and limit the use of the drug with analgesic action from another group. For prophylaxis, metoprolol was used in 6 (30%) cases, topiramate — in 2 (10%) cases, amitriptyline — in 30%, venlafaxine in 30%. After 3 months from the start of therapy, patients noted the greatest reduction in the frequency and intensity of headache when taking amitriptyline at a dose of up to 50 mg, venlafaxine at a dose of up to 150 mg. At the time of withdrawal, “rebound” symptoms and withdrawal syndrome developed in 14 (70%) people. Detoxification therapy (dexamethasone 4–8 mg per 200 ml of saline and magnesia 10% 25 ml N10) was carried out in 12 (60%) patients. Over 3 months of follow-up, the occurrence of a headache attack decreased by 2 points on the intensity scale, duration — by an average of 6 hours, the number of days with a headache increased by an average of 3.4 days, the number of days with the use of pathogens per month — by 12.6 days. Conclusion. It is necessary to raise the awareness of therapists, neurologists about the causes, patterns, methods of treatment of МОН, as well as about the risk factors for its recurrence. Patient compliance can be improved by telephone interviews, face-to-face consultations 1–3 months after the start of preventive therapy.

Study Design: Perspective study. Materials and Methods. We examined 126 women of reproductive age. The study included two groups: controls (40 relatively healthy fertile women without any cervical pathologies and HPV) and a group of 86 women with HPV-associated CIN II. All subjects underwent an examination; and their cytokine response and apoptotic marker level were assessed. All patients in CIN II group had the affect area excised. 43 post-excision women were followed up (sub-group A); other 43 subjects had surgery and an antiviral (sub-group B). The antiviral was administered subcutaneously once daily, 3 injections before and 3 injections after the excision. The primary efficacy criteria were absence of HPV or reduction in the viral load below significant values, and absence of pathology relapses after 6 and 12 months of the study. Study Results. In subjects with CIN II, pre-therapy caspase 3 and 9 levels were significantly higher vs controls; INF-γ was 1.8 times higher than in controls, and mean IL-18 concentration was considerably lower (p < 0.05 in both cases). In sub-groups A and B, caspase 3 and 9 concentration in 3 and 6 months after therapy also differed significantly from controls, and in 6 months, caspase 3 and 9 concentration in sub-group В was considerably lower than in sub-group А. Women in sub-groups А and В demonstrated statistically significant difference in cytokine profile: in both sub-groups, INF-γ concentration in 10 days increased, while in 12 months it almost reached its baseline value.

Key Points. Human papilloma virus (HPV) is a key causative factor of cervical cancer. However, there are a lot of data collected over the last two decades demonstrating that EBV has a role to play in this process; still, its contribution to development of cervical cancer has been studied poorly. This review describes the real-time published data on EBV and HPV co-infection in the genesis of cervical cancer, and the potential role of EBV in gynaecological cancer progression. Conclusion. EBV has an important role in the genesis and progression of some human malignancies including lymphoid tumours (both В- and Т-cell cancer) and carcinoma (nasopharyngeal and gastric cancer). The available data are indicative of potential cause-effect relations between EBV and cervical cancer pathogenesis. A frequent EBV and HPV co-infection in cervical cancer witnesses possible cancer-causing interaction between the two viruses. Thus, more in-depth studies are needed to find out the mechanisms underlying the EBV and HPV synergism and its clinical effects. Taking into account successful cervical cancer prevention with HPV vaccine and possible future EBV vaccination, the carcinogenesis mechanisms should be studied more thoroughly in order to improve the prevention of oncological diseases.

Key points. Refractory GERD is diagnosed when there is insufficient response to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) twice daily for 8 weeks with the presence of pathological gastroesophageal reflux. Possible mechanisms underlying PPI-refractory symptoms characteristic of GERD include persistence of pathological reflux, esophageal hypersensitivity to reflux, association of symptoms with other diseases, and functional nature of symptoms. To diagnose refractory GERD, a thorough analysis of symptoms, esophagogastroscopy with morphological examination, pH-impedancemetry and esophageal manometry are performed. Treatment includes dietary and lifestyle modifications to reduce body weight in obese patients, optimization of PPI prescribing, use of other drugs, and, if indicated, surgery. Conclusion. Diagnosing the reasons for the decrease in the effectiveness of PPIs in patients with GERD is a complex process that requires the use of modern endoscopic methods with the performance of a morphological study of the esophagus, pH-impedance testing and highresolution manometry to determine the nature of reflux, the relationship of reflux with symptoms of GERD and the differential diagnosis of various GERD syndromes.
