To compare the effectiveness of Papanicolaou test, screening for oncogenic human papillomavirus (HPV) strains, and colposcopy in diagnosis of cervical squamous intraepithelial lesions and cervical cancer.Materials and Methods. We conducted a retrospective study which included 101 patients aged 21-65 years (mean age 36.9 ± 8.2 years). All patients underwent cytological examination, screening for 14 high-risk HPV types, and colposcopy. The prognostic value of the methods was calculated using standard formulas for determining the sensitivity, specificity, and prognostic value of positive and negative results. Cervical biopsy was accepted as the gold standard.Results. Among the examined women (n = 101), high-risk HPV types were detected in 78 women (77.2%). According to the results of cytological examination, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) I, CIN II, CIN III, and cancer were detected in 24 (23.8%), 24 (23.8%), 22 (21.7%), and 2 (2%) cases, respectively. Abnormal colposcopy results of the 1st and 2nd degree were found in 33 (32.7%) and 51 (50.5%) women, respectively. The highest sensitivity in the diagnosis of low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion was demonstrated by colposcopy (81.3%), whilst HPV testing and cytological examination had lower sensitivity values (75.0% and 58.3%, respectively). However, HPV testing had the highest sensitivity (85.7%) in diagnosis of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion and cervical cancer, whereas colposcopy and Papanicolaou test were behind (82.9% and 63.6%, respectively).Conclusion. Detection of high-risk HPV types has a high sensitivity in detecting both low- and highgrade squamous intraepithelial lesions and cervical cancer.","PeriodicalId":12493,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Clinical Medicine","volume":"46 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140368436","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}

To identify the epidemiological features of HAIs in all patients admitted for surgery from 2018 to 2022. in a cardiac surgery hospital for the implementation of a risk-based prevention strategy.Materials and Methods. A descriptive retrospective epidemiological study of the HAI epidemic process was performed from 2018 to 2022. in patients of a large cardiac surgery hospital (n = 6179). Stratified indicators were calculated. To display unknown relationships and make a forecast, Fourier spectral analysis was performed, followed by the use of artificial intelligence technology - neural networks. The STATISTICA Automated Neural Networks (SANN) tool was used, as well as the StatTech v. 3.0.5.Results. The average rate of HAIs incidence over a 5-year period was 4.22 per 1000 patient days. We revealed decreasing trend of HAIs. Incidence of HCAI cardiopulmonary bypass surgery (CBS) was 3 times higher than without CBS (4.68 and 1.51 per 1000 patient-days, respectively). Fourier analysis revealed 10, 20, 30 cyclicity due to the dominant Klebsiella pneumoniae without the same time-series for other pathogens. The technology of neural network modeling did not reveal neural networks suitable for describing the forecast. Klebsiella pneumoniae showed properties typical of the hospital population and caused 35.49% of all cases of HAIs, had multidrug resistance to antibiotics in 74.45% of cases, with more than half of the strains having extended resistance, and 10.21% were pan-resistant. Acinetobacter baumanii also showed high epidemic activity, causing almost a fifth of all cases of HAIs, although its antimicrobial resistance characteristics were less pronounced than those of Klebsiella pneumoniae.Conclusion. The epidemiological characteristics of the epidemic process of HCAI is one of the mandatory components of risk identification.

Before laparoscopy, a blood sample was taken from all patients for a molecular-biological study of the expression of 10 microRNAs: miR-183, miR-125b, miR-126, miR-16, miR-15a, miR-200a, miR-20a, miR-21, miR-222 and miR-29b. Identification of the studied and normalizing RNAs (U6 RNA and 103a microRNA) was performed according to the method of Chen et al. The presented values of the expression of the studied microRNAs are given in the form of 2-ΔCt. The expression ratio is given in the form of 2-ΔCt (main)/2-ΔCt (control), if the expression in the group of patients with endometriosis exceeded that in the control group, and in the form of 2-ΔCt (control)/2-ΔCt (main), if vice versa.Results. Comparison of the expression of 10 mi-croRNAs between the two groups revealed statistically significant differences only in miR-183: its expression in patients with EGE was statistically 1.5 times higher than that in women of the control group (p=0.017).We have not detected a difference in the expression of mir-200a, while according to other researchers, representatives of the mir-200 family are among the most frequent whose expression changes with endometriosis. MIR-16 expression also did not differ statistically among the patients we examined, whereas a group of American colleagues revealed its increase in patients with endometriosis and with endometriosis-associated ovarian tumors. We found no difference in mir-21 expression. The results of other researchers are contradictory: some found its increase in endometrioid cysts compared with eutopic endometrium, an increase in the epithelium of the fallopian tubes with their endometriosis compared with unaffected; others did not reveal a difference between the eutopic endometrium of endometriosis patients and healthy women, but showed a decrease in expression in peritoneal foci and foci of deep infiltrative endometriosis compared with eutopic endometrium.The expression of mir-222 was reduced in the patients we examined with endometriosis, which goes against the existing ideas about the pro-oncogenic role of this microRNA. An increase in its expression in cancer of the stomach, bladder, liver, lungs, breast, endometrium, ovaries is described.

Morphological diagnostics of pathological processes occurring under the action of pharmacologically active substances is the most important component of preclinical research of compounds with an alleged antitumor effect. It is advisable to use information about the possible cytotoxic effect of candidates for antitumor drugs using an immunohistochemical method for studying organs and systems of experimental animals at different stages of the development of the tumor process by indirect markers of tumor progression activity. Morphological examination of parenchymal organs and tumor tissue in the dynamics of the development of malignant neoplasm is more informative and evidence-based than biochemical research. The aim of the study is to conduct a comparative analysis of markers of tumor process activity for more effective use of morphological and immunohistochemical research methods in the preclinical study of compounds with suspected antitumor activity to assess the prospects for their use with the detection of tumor process activity. The literature search was carried out using the Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed and eLIBRARY databases. The paper presents an overview of current molecular biological markers for assessing the activity of the malignant process in the experiment: Transforming Growth Factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), Ki-67, Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), p53, Poly-ADP-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and Anti-8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), beta III Tubulin, p120 Catenin, Beta Actin. The listed markers are indirect and can be used in a single mode only for screening studies of antitumor and antimetastatic activity in which a large number of compounds are sorted according to the principle of effectiveness. When conducting an in-depth study of the pharmacological activity of the leader compounds it is necessary to perform a comprehensive immunohistochemical study. Our analysis of the literature data confirms the importance of selecting optimal, sensitive, economically feasible and affordable markers, which in turn leads to the improvement of diagnostic panels and their standardization to simplify their transition into clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":12493,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Clinical Medicine","volume":"63 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139452483","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}

A solution to this problem can be the use of intraoperative biodegradable anti-adhesion membranes that have their own antibacterial activity.Aim. Development of polymer anti-adhesion membranes with their own anti-inflammatory and antibacterial activity, assessment of their biocompatibility and biodegradation in in vivo experimentsMaterials and Methods. The membranes are made by electrospinning from a composition of biodegradable polymers: polylactide-co-glycolide copolymer (50:50) and polylactide-co-glycolide (85:15). To impart antibacterial properties to the membrane, the antibiotic Tigacil was added to the polymer solution in various dosages - 0.125; 0.25 and 0.5 mg/ml polymer solution. The antibacterial activity of the membranes in vivo was assessed. The physical and mechanical properties were studied and the surface structure of the membranes was assessed using a scanning electron microscope. Biocompatibility and dynamics of biodegradation were assessed in vivo by implantation into laboratory animals (rats) for periods of 14 days, 1, 2 and 3 months, followed by histological examination of explanted samples.Results. Polymer membranes made by electrospinning, without the inclusion of Tigacil, consist of threads whose thickness was 1.63 microns (1.422.85 microns); when Tigacil is included in the fiber composition, the fiber thickness decreases to 1.2 microns (0.977 - 1.89 pm), while the threads are more densely and orderly located. The strength and elasticity modulus of membranes with Tigacil are almost 2 times higher than those of samples without the inclusion of the drug. The maximum antibacterial effect was achieved at a Tigacil dosage of 0.5 mg/ml - the zone of inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus at a Tigacil concentration of 0.125 mg/ ml was 146%, 0.25 mg/ml - 152% and at a concentration of 0.5 mg/ml - 11 .5 mm 177%. The inclusion of Tigacil led to a decrease in the rate of biodegradation of samples in vivo. The samples underwent biodegradation without signs of acute and chronic inflammation.Conclusion. The inclusion of Tigacil in the membrane gives it antibacterial properties, and the optimal concentration of Tigacil was 0.5 mg/ml of the polymer solution. The inclusion of Tigacil in the polymer composition affects the morphology of the membranes, increases the strength and elastic modulus, which led to a decrease in the rate of degradation when implanted subcutaneously in rats. The absence of signs of inflammation confirms the biocompatibility of the developed membranes.","PeriodicalId":12493,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Clinical Medicine","volume":"3 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139453203","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}

To study of serum magnesium in women with a history of adverse pregnancy outcomes.Materials and Methods. 74 women of child-bearing age, subject to voluntary informed consent, participated in a prospective cohort study. The main group (n = 31) included non-pregnant women who had a history of unfavorable gestation outcomes: premature birth, spontaneous miscarriage, habitual miscarriage, undeveloped pregnancy. The comparison group (n = 43) consisted of non-pregnant women with a history of two or more urgent deliveries. In all women, in preparation for pregnancy, the content of serum magnesium was determined by colorimetric method with xylidine blue.Results. 77.6% of women with a burdened obstetric history of miscarriage (the main group) had various menstrual cycle disorders (FIGO, 2018). When analyzing the levels of magnesium in the blood serum of the examined women, it turned out that the obtained indicators in women of both groups corresponded to the established reference range of normal values of serum magnesium levels. At the same time, in the women of the main group, the average magnesium content in the blood serum was significantly lower and was closer to the lower limit of the range of normal values, and in the comparison group – in the middle of the range of normal values: 0.719 (0.672-0.767) mmol/l and 0.844 (0.778-0.922) mmol/l, respectively, p<0.001.The optimal threshold value of the serum magnesium index in the study was 0.796 mmol/l with the sensitivity and specificity of the proposed prognostic model of 80.6% and 81.4%, respectively.Conclusion. Determination of the level of magnesium in the blood serum of women at the stage of pre-pregnancy counseling is of particular importance.

In accordance with the clinical question, using the PECO formula, papers were selected in which the authors investigated the role of various risk factors in groups with and without AD. The study was carried out in accordance with the international guidelines for writing systematic reviews and meta-analyses \"PRISMA\". Study quality was analyzed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale for cohort and case-control studies. The degree of heterogeneity was assessed using the chi-square test and the I2 coefficient. Publication bias was analyzed using a funnel plot. We used the software Review Manager 5.3 and Microsoft Office Excel 2010.Results. Initially, 3197 articles were retrieved from the databases; After screening and eligibility analysis, 17 studies were included in the me-ta-analysis (11 case-control studies and 6 cohort studies). Totally, these publications included data from 134,732 people with a confirmed diagnosis of AD and 1,058,143 respondents without AD (control group). According to the results of the meta-analysis, significant risk factors were: heredity (odds ratio (OR) 1.82; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.66-1.99), arterial hypertension (OR 1.65; 95% CI 1.29-2.13), hypercholesterolemia (OR 1.25; 95% CI 1.13-1.38), obesity (OR 1.13; 95% CI 1.09-1.17), presence of diabetes mellitus 2 type (OR 1.36; 95%; CI 1.15-1.62), low level of education (OR 1.61; 95% CI 1.18-2.18), depression (OR 1.35; 95% CI 1.03-1.76).

Assessment of the content of trans-fatty acids in foods consumed by the population of the Omsk region and the values of their actual consumption.Materials and Methods. The results of laboratory studies of food products from the following groups were analyzed: fast food (hamburgers, french fries, chips); confectionery; oils, fats; meat products; dairy products (n=438). In product samples, the mass fraction of trans-fatty acid isomers was determined by gas chromatography. An assessment was made of the actual nutrition and consumption of trans fats by the inhabitants of the region using the method of analyzing the frequency of food consumption (n=441).Results. The median content of trans fats in the main food groups was 0.67% of total fat, which does not exceed the values recommended by WHO. There was a decrease in the content of trans-isomers in food products from 2.7% in the period 2016−2017. up to 1.0% in the period 2020−2021 However, there remains a significant health risk associated with the consumption of trans-fatty acids, due to the high proportion of samples exceeding the recommended levels (24.5±2.1%), to a greater extent the risk was determined by the consumption of confectionery. The median consumption of TFAs in the study population was 1.16 g, which is in line with the recommended norms. The proportion of people with excess recommended consumption was 10.2%.Conclusion. The results indicate an improvement in the situation related to the consumption of trans fats in 2016-2021 due to stricter requirements for their content in food products. It is necessary to conduct further research related to the assessment of the content of trans-isomers of fatty acids in the diet of various population groups to identify risk groups and priority food products - sources of trans fats.","PeriodicalId":12493,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Clinical Medicine","volume":"14 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139452834","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}
