The aim of this work was to study the dynamics of changes in the NK cell cytolytic activity within three weeks after acute myocardial infarction in connection with the level of circulating immune complexes in the peripheral blood. Material and methods. 16 healthy donors and 35 patients after the development of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) on the 1st, 7th and 21st days was studied for the NK cell cytolytic activity of the mononuclear fraction of peripheral blood, evaluated by the cytolysis of erythroleukemia K-562 cells in vitro and levels of serum circulating immune complexes (CIC) using the method of precipitation with polyethylene glycol-6000. Results and discussion. In the most patients, AMI led to functional anergy of NK cells, but in the smaller part of patients, the increase in their cytotoxicity was observed. The post-infarction period was characterized by an increased content of CIC, the level of which positively correlated with the development of functional anergy of NK cells. Possible mechanisms for the development of both functional anergy and an increase in NK cell activity in the post-infarction period are discussed.

Triage scales are designed to optimize patient waiting times according to the severity of their medical condition in order to treat the most intense symptom as quickly as possible and reduce the negative impact on the prognosis of a long delay before starting treatment. The aim of the study is to analyze the literature data describing the scales for triage in the emergency department, their comparative characteristics, and assessment of their reliability and reliability. Material and methods. An online literature research was conducted in databases such as Pubmed, Web of Science and Scopus, as well as on-line publications in Russian and English languages. The following terms were used to search for relevant literature sources: emergency department, triage, emergency severity index. A total of 813 literary sources were found, 37 of which were selected for further analysis. Inclusion criteria: studies performed in people, published in English, Russian, as well as full versions of articles. Exclusion criteria: summary of reports, newspaper publications, personal messages. Results and discussion. Analysis of the literature data allows us to judge a variety of approaches and systems of medical sorting of patients requiring emergency medical care, especially in cases of mass disasters and injuries. Analysis of existing sorting scales has shown that these scales are fivestep and adapted to the region and the health system, but there is no single universal scale. Conclusion. The introduction of structured triage by specially trained medical personnel in the emergency Department helps to accurately identify patients whose lives are at risk, especially during periods of insufficient treatment effectiveness. Therefore, five-level triage systems are recommended by national and international societies of emergency medicine.

The disease spread dramatically over the world, including Kazakhstan. Between March 13 and September 30, 2020, a total of 107,979 laboratory confirmed cases of COVID-19 were registered in the republic. The aim of the study was to describe the epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 outbreaks in five localities of Beyneu and Karakiya districts of Mangistau region of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Methods. A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in Mangistau region for the period from 31 May 2020 till 06 June 2020 to investigate the epidemiological characteristics of several COVID-19 outbreaks, and to assess the effectiveness of implemented intervention. Results. In the Mangistau region, in the oil production area, five outbreaks of COVID-19 were registered: two in the Beyneu region (Beyneu settlement and Borankul village), one in the Karakiyan region (Senek village) and two at the Kalamkas and Zhetibay oil fields, where there were foci with the number of cases from two to 100 cases. Discussion. The main reason for the spread of the disease was overcrowding and cross-contact between oilfield workers, which influenced the registration of outbreaks among workers in field camps. The active movement of workers between camps, the involvement of medical workers with no experience in using PPE to work at checkpoints and local hospitals, as well as the presence of a confirmed case of COVID-19 at funerals where participants did not use respiratory protection also influenced the spread of infection. Conclusions. This article describes the epidemiologic features of the outbreak series in five settlements located in the oil production zone of Mangistau region of Kazakhstan during May - June of 2020. An exponential increase in numbers of COVID-19 patients in Beyneu district appeared to be caused by exposure among the members of in canteens and dormitories for shift workers in oil-producing areas with the additional community- and hospital-transmission.

Pain is considered chronic if it lasts or recurs for more than 3-6 months. This contributes to disability, depression, sleep disorders, poor quality of life, and what is important in this situation, the cost of treatment. According to statistics, the average prevalence of chronic pain in the adult population is 20%. Practitioners everywhere are in search of new methods of pain relief. Purpose of research. The quality of life of patients with chronic pain syndrome has traditionally remained a topical issue. Given the permanent nature of pain and the completeness of approaches to its relief, the modern Clinician is constantly looking for new treatment methods that meet the principles of evidence-based medicine and safety. Material and methods. This paper presents the results of using Neurouridine® in 30 patients with peripheral neuropathy. 30 patients were randomized for a 3-week treatment period. Average age: 47.5±1.5 years. All patients received standard symptomatic therapy, and an oral combination drug containing b vitamins, folic acid, choline, and Uridine was added to the treatment in the 150 mg mode once a day. Patients made three visits to the outpatient neurological office: visit 1-to evaluate pre-treatment, visit 2-after 10 days of treatment, and visit 3-after 20 days of treatment. Each patient was presented with two performance evaluations at each study visit: pain assessment on the CRS NRS scale, and the fps Face scale. Results and discussion. Analysis of the results of the treatment showed improvement in the form of reduced pain, improved quality of life in 65.90%, rapid recovery of performance in 32.10%, reduced need for analgesics in 59.90% and complete disappearance of symptoms in 25.30% of patients. Pain was assessed using the HI NRG scale, the AZA Face scale, and the frequency of analgesics at the patient's first, second, and third visits. Conclusion. The use of Neurouridine® for analgesic purposes has shown a positive effect on reducing symptoms in patients with peripheral neuropathy.

One of the most serious complications is mineral-bone disorder, which worsen the clinical course and prognosis of patients. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is a new biomarker that regulates phosphate metabolism and plays an important role in the pathogenesis of many complications in CKD. Purpose. To study the physiological role of FGF-23, as well as its potential clinical significance in the progression of CKD and its complications. Material and methods. A 20-year-deep literature search was conducted in the international scientific databases PubMed / Medline, Web of Science and Google Scholar for the following keywords: \"Fibroblast growth factor 23\", \"FGF-23\", \"phosphate homeostasis\", \"chronic kidney disease\", \"Mineral and bone disorders\", \"left ventricular hypertrophy\". Results and discussion. FGF-23 is a protein secreted by bone cells and its primary physiological role is to regulate urinary excretion of phosphate to maintain a stable level in serum. Moreover, FGF-23 decreases calcitriol levels and inhibits parathyroid hormone secretion. In CKD, there is a gradual increase in FGF-23 levels as renal function declines, which can be regarded as physiological compensation to stabilize serum phosphate levels. According to the several studies, FGF-23 might be associated with cardiovascular complications, such as left ventricular hypertrophy and heart failure. Conclusion. Thus, FGF-23 is not only a marker of mineral-bone disorders in CKD, but also a key link in the pathogenesis of the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism and cardiovascular complications. With this in mind, FGF-23 may represent a multifunctional therapeutic target that may improve the prognosis of patients with CKD.
