According to WHO, about 21 million children are born annually in the world with low body weight. Currently, the problems of etiology, diagnosis and treatment of fetal growth retardation (FGR) are very relevant for obstetrics and perinatology. Purpose to study the level of collagen (COL1) collagenase activity (MMP1), and content of proline, ornithine in the maternal blood serum, amniotic fluid, placenta and cord blood of patients with placental insufficiency, and to identify their role in the formation of fetal growth restriction (FGR) during early pregnancy. Methods. 150 women were examined, which made up 2 groups control (with uncomplicated pregnancy, n = 105) and main (with IUGR, n = 45). All measurements were performed in maternal blood serum, amniotic fluid, placenta and cord blood of women of both groups. Collagen content and collagenase activity are determined by ELISA kits, USA. Determination of amino acids (proline, ornithine) was carried out by capillary electrophoresis on the device Capel-105 (St. Petersburg). Results. As a result of the correlation analysis in the study of all biofluids by the Spearman method with the calculation of the rank correlation coefficient (r) in the group of women with FGR, significant correlations between collagen production and collagenase activity were revealed. The most pronounced interdependence (r = 0.85; p 0.05) was found in the maternal blood serum. Conclusions. A relationship was found between the studied parameters (collagen, collagenase, proline, ornithine) in blood serum, amniotic fluid, cord blood and placenta of women with placental insufficiency and their role in the formation of fetal growth retardation was established.","PeriodicalId":178392,"journal":{"name":"Annals of the Russian academy of medical sciences","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126416427","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}

The development of new laser devices for use in the treatment of complex dental pathology and microsurgery of the oral cavity with unique parameters with the ability to generate nanosecond pulsed radiation in a quasi-monochromatic radiation band is necessary. The high peak output power per pulse allows laser light to penetrate deeper into biological media without significant heating. The possibility of excitation of singlet oxygen without the use of endogenous photosensitizers is an indisputable advantage of such laser generators. \u0000Aims study of singlet oxygen generation in human oral fluid in vitro depending on the parameters of nanosecond pulsed laser radiation with a wavelength of ~1265 nm. \u0000Methods. We used a laser device with a main infrared (IR) emitter with a wavelength approximately corresponding to the oxygen absorption maximum (~1265 nm) with the generation of nanosecond pulsed radiation. A study was carried out to study the generation of singlet oxygen in the human oral fluid and the washing out of the oral fluid by the fading of the trap in solutions under the action of laser radiation before irradiation, after 30 and 60 min. The laser radiation parameters were set as follows: power 1 W, nanosecond pulsed radiation with a pulse duration of 400 ns and a frequency of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 MHz in comparison with the continuous radiation mode. \u0000Results. It has been established that nanosecond laser radiation leads to the oxidation of a chemical singlet oxygen trap solubilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate (0.05 M SDS) detergent in the oral fluid and saliva flushing from the oral cavity. In pulsed nanosecond modes, laser radiation is more efficient than in continuous mode. With an increase in the repetition frequency, an increase in the effect by an average of 10% compared to a lower frequency was observed and the effect with a maximum frequency of 2.0 MHz was almost 50% higher than when using continuous radiation in all studies. A decrease in optical density at 414 nm was reliably observed in samples with oral fluid washing, the effect was 0.07 0.01 for 60 min of exposure. In the oral fluid, the effect with the same parameters was slightly lower and amounted to 0.05 0.03. \u0000Conclusions. The rate of fading of the trap in the saliva wash turned out to be 1.3 times faster than in water with detergent, which may indicate the activation of photoacceptors and their oversaturation with oxygen when using aqueous dilution of the oral fluid. The maximum effect was observed when using laser radiation with a pulse repetition rate of 2.0 MHz.","PeriodicalId":178392,"journal":{"name":"Annals of the Russian academy of medical sciences","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125438269","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}

At the moment, the possibilities of radiation diagnostics make it possible to identify and evaluate the nature of the blood supply to the neoplasm, its prevalence, cellularity, and in the case of MRI studies with hepatospecific contrast agents, also evaluate the functional activity of liver cells. Nevertheless, the steady development of methods for treating cancer patients, in particular, chemotherapy, and a personalized approach to the choice of patient management tactics require a detailed assessment of the morphological types of certain neoplasms. The need for dynamic monitoring of the results of treatment, monitoring of accidentally detected, potentially malignant neoplasms, and the development of screening programs determine the steady increase in the number of CT and MR examinations performed annually in the world and in our country.

Changes of iron metabolism in patients with tuberculosis combined with HIV infection is an important task of phthisiology, since, on the one hand, iron deficiency can have a negative effect on the course of the tuberculous process. On the other hand, compensation for iron deficiency may be creating an iron overload situation, promoting replication of M. tuberculosis. Aims to study in a comparative aspect, changes in iron metabolism markers in patients with tuberculosis combined with HIV infection and without it. Methods. The study included 284 tuberculosis patients who were divided into 2 groups. The first group included 141 patients with tuberculosis combined with HIV (TB/HIV group). The comparison group consisted of 143 tuberculosis patients without HIV (TB group). The assessment of the bodys iron supply was carried out in terms of the concentration of serum iron, transferrin (TF), and ferritin (FT). The study was conducted separately in men and women, since the indicators of iron metabolism in healthy men and women differ significantly. Results. It was found that in men with TB/HIV patients, the decrease in serum iron less than the lower limit of the norm took place in 47.6%, and in the TB group in 27.3% of cases (p 0.01). The concentration of TF in the blood serum in the group of TB/HIV patients in men decreased in 69.9%, and in the group of TB patients in 31.2% of cases (p 0.01). The level of FT in the TB/HIV group increased in 19.4%, and in the TB group in 8.3% of cases (p 0.05). In women, a decrease in iron levels in the group of TB/HIV patients was observed in 39.5%, and in the TB group only in 2.2% of cases (p 0.01), a decrease in the level of TF was observed in 55.2% and 24.3% (p 0.01). A decrease in ferritin levels below 15 ng/ml was observed in 15.7% of women with TB/HIV and in 10.6% of TB patients. A negative relationship was found between iron content and CRP levels. Conclusion. The results of studied made it possible to conclude that in all cases the decrease in iron was caused not by a true deficiency of iron, but by its redistribution in the body.
