FABP content considerably decreases by the end of at 24-h period due to excretion with urine, remaining elevated for subsequent 24 h. High clinical sensitivity and relatively high organ specificity are typical of FABP for 12 h after ACS. Within the early period of MI clinical specificity of FABP prevails over troponin in terms of concentration. Troponins display higher clinical sensitivity and diagnostic specificity during a 12-h period after ACS, prevailing for several days after MI. Simultaneous measuring of FABP and troponins (Tr) within the first 12 h increases the sensitivity of biochemical diagnostics by 30%. At later periods, simultaneous determination of FABP and Tr becomes unnecessary: FABP is excreted with urine and Tr level acquires predominant diagnostic significance. No relationship has been revealed between blood content of FABP and reperfusion according to electrocardiography data, probably due to rare measurements of this highly dynamic parameter. FABP test cannot be used in patients with circulatory disorders since its results are not adequate. The best option for differential diagnostics of ACS within the first 24 h would be a combined express immunochromatographic test which allows to measure blood FABP and Tr levels pending objective evaluation.</p>","PeriodicalId":17856,"journal":{"name":"Klinicheskaia meditsina","volume":"95 3","pages":"207-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36613712","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}

This includes the enhancement of availability ofphysical education and adapted sports programs. One of the best practices for the improvement ofphysical activity among the population is the \"Ready for labour and defense\" training system (GTO). However, it is not adapted for those with physical challenges and disabilities. To involve this special fraction of the population in physical activity and participation in the GTO system, disability groups eligible for this activity need to be identified. They can include individuals with visual (VI), intellectual (II), hearing (HI), and locomotor problems as well as those with transplanted organs (TO). Also, minimum disability criteria (MDC) for the participants from each group which would make them eligible to practice an adapted GTO system should be defined. The development of MDC for individuals with VI, II, HI, and TO is relatively easy as they are common for most adapted sports. However, it remains a challenge for persons with locomotor problems since they make up a very diverse group bearing in mind that the rules of the International Paralympic Committee envisage different MDC for different adapted sports. There are two possible solutions: (1) to develop specialized MDC for each sport discipline included in the GTO system, (2) to develop universal MDC for all disciplines. The next step in promoting the GTO system among individuals with physical challenges and disabilities will be the development of the para- GTO program that would be unique and adapted for all categories of the disabled individuals.","PeriodicalId":17856,"journal":{"name":"Klinicheskaia meditsina","volume":"9 1","pages":"23-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82493125","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}

Materials and methods 130 patients with stage 5 CKD1 were included in the study. Serum PTH, calcium and phosphorus were measured. ELISA was used to determine serum soluble alpha Klotho. Blood pressure including brachial and central (aortic) pressure was measured in all patients together with pulse wave velocity (using a «Sfigmokor» device); in addition, echocardiography (EchoCG), and X-ray examination of the abdominal aorta by Kauppila method were performed. Results The dynamic study of serum Klotho level showed that it changes with decreasing glomerular filtration rate faster than a rise in phosphate and PTH levels starting from stage 3A of CKD. The two later variables increased at stages 4-5.According to the ROC analysis, the values of serum Klotho below 387 pg /ml suggested enhanced risk of myocardial calcification with 80% sensitivity and 76% specificity. In addition, the highest Klotho serum levels were observed in patients whose target BP values were achieved with angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) compared to those who used other drugs [р<0,01] or failed to reached target BP levels [p=0,008]. Conclusion The study showed the possibility of practical use of Klotho protein as an early diagnostic marker of cardiovascular risk. Reduced serum Klotho was less pronounced in patients who used ARB for correction of high blood pressure. Normal Klotho protein levels in serum have been associated with a lower frequency of heart and vessels calcification in CKD patients.","PeriodicalId":17856,"journal":{"name":"Klinicheskaia meditsina","volume":"11 1","pages":"272-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81885938","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}
