This metal has been used in medical practice since ancient times, but statistical data on its effectiveness were obtained only at the end of the 19th century. Since then, it has become widely spread in the form of colloidal solutions, salts, and, in recent decades, nanoparticles. The interest to silver preparations is especially pronounced in connection with the spread of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms. Ions and nanoparticles attach to their cell wall, disrupt its functioning, destroy it, penetrate into the cell, where they bind to phosphorus and sulfur-containing molecules. Possessing such a non-specific mechanism of action, silver nanoparticles have a wide spectrum of antimicrobial and antifungal activity. According to the materials of the Cochrane Library, it can be concluded that silver nanoparticles possess clinically proven efficacy when used in surgery, dentistry, for manufacturing medical products that are used in surgery or transplantology.","PeriodicalId":23571,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik of Vitebsk State Medical University","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83138352","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 carry out a comparative assessment of the results of morphometric study of infectious and inflammatory focus and the density of vessels of the microcirculatory bed at different periods of laser radiation application in the postoperative treatment for experimental periostitis of the jaws. Material and methods. The experiment was performed on 56 rabbits. 54 of them had simulated acute purulent periostitis (APP) of the lower jaw. All the animals were divided into the following series. Series 1 - 12 rabbits which, after the creation of the APP model, were treated with laser therapy on the 1st, the 3rd and the 5th days after surgery. Series 2 - 16 rabbits which underwent laser therapy treatment on the 3rd, the 5th and the 7th days after surgery. Series 3 (control) - 26 rabbits which were not treated after the creation of the APP model. Series 4 - 2 animals whose jaw fragments were taken as a standard. Results. In all series 1 micropreparations, after completing the experiment the changes can be characterized as minimally residual inflammatory ones. Complex treatment of periostitis, including laser treatment, applied from the first day of the postoperative period, is effective for relieving infectious inflammation and creating optimal conditions for tissue regeneration. Conclusions. Despite the similarity of the schemes of complex postoperative treatment for experimental periostitis using the effect of laser on the focus of inflammation in series 1 and 2, it has been found that its positive influence is due to a greater degree of complementarity when used as early as possible after surgery.","PeriodicalId":23571,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik of Vitebsk State Medical University","volume":"82 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82138719","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 solve the problem of assessing the current state of foreign citizens’ trust in the professional activities of Belarusian doctors, it is proposed to use the index of confidence in Belarusian doctors, determined on the basis of the indices of generalized trust in Belarusian doctors (three types), the values of which are calculated based on the values of two indicators: the indicator of generalized trust and the indicator of the measure of personal trust. Objectives.To introduce a new method of assessing the trust in Belarusian doctors among foreign patients. Material and methods. Using the principles of sociology of medicine, an approach has been developed to mathematically assess the level of trust of foreign consumers of medical services in Belarusian doctors, the system was introduced in 2021 into the work of a number of healthcare organizations in Grodno region (healthcare institution «Grodno University Clinic», healthcare institution «Grodno City Clinical Hospital of Emergency Medical Care», healthcare institution «Ostrovets Central District Clinical Hospital»). The sample consisted of 297 English-speaking foreigners: 184 (61.95%) women and 113 (38.05%) men. Every third foreigner - 34.24% of women {27.77; 41.35}% and 30.97% of men {23.19;40.01}% - had already an experience of receiving medical care in countries other than Belarus and the country of their residence. The Microsoft Excel 2010 program, the Statistica 10 software package, serial number AXAR207F394425FA-Q were used to process and present the results. Results. The method includes a sociological survey followed by the calculation of the index of trust in Belarusian doctors, determined on the basis of generalized trust indices (three types). The indices of generalized trust in three characteristics - experience, professionalism, ethics - differ, trust in the professionalism of Belarusian doctors prevails (p<0.01), the general index of trust of foreign citizens in the professional activities of Belarusian doctors makes up 40.4%, which corresponds to the average level of trust. Conclusions. The results indicate a sufficient level of trust in Belarusian doctors on the part of foreign patients. Vectors for increasing trust are represented by the aspects of expanding the experience of doctors working with English-speaking patients and issues of ethics and communication in healthcare.","PeriodicalId":23571,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik of Vitebsk State Medical University","volume":"258 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74534570","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}

Cryoglobulinemic vasculitis (CV) is a difficult and rare diagnosis not only for a physician, but also for a rheumatologist. The disease has polymorphic clinical manifestations and can debut with lesions of various organs and systems. Additional difficulties in the diagnosis of the disease are created by ambiguous laboratory research results. CV is often associated with lymphoproliferative diseases such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma or non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, autoimmune and infectious diseases. Viral hepatitis C is the most common underlying cause of CV and makes up approximately 80% of all cases. In case when the etiological factor is not established, the term «idiopathic» or «essential» CV is used. For the diagnosis of CV, classification criteria are proposed, including the results of the questionnaire, clinical manifestations and laboratory research data. The principles of treating patients with CV are determined by the etiopathogenetic mechanisms and the severity of the clinical manifestations of the disease. When the etiological factor of CV development is established, etiotropic therapy is administered. Patients with severe or life-threatening manifestations require urgent intervention to suppress the formation of immune complexes. This is achieved by means of immunosuppressive therapy including glucocorticosteroids, cytostatics, rituximab, and plasmapheresis.","PeriodicalId":23571,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik of Vitebsk State Medical University","volume":"66 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77163712","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 develop an algorithm for determining the remodelling of the heart in chronic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Material and methods. In 2017-2019, on the basis of the Healthcare Institution «1st City Clinical Hospital» in Minsk, a one-stage (cross-sectional) comparative clinical and instrumental study of a stratified random sample consisting of 175 patients aged 71.0 (64.0; 78.0) years was performed. In 2019-2021, the State Institution «Minsk Scientific-Practical Center of Surgery, Transplantation and Hematology» performed an independent reproductive (examination) clinical and instrumental study of a stratified random sample, which included 129 patients aged 64.5 (58.0; 70.0) years. Criteria for inclusion in the study: sinus rhythm; essential arterial hypertension; chronic ischemic heart disease; HFpEF; the presence of voluntary informed consent of the patient to participate in the study. Exclusion criteria: primary mitral regurgitation, mitral stenosis, mitral valve repair or replacement, congenital heart defects, cardiomyopathies, acute and chronic respiratory diseases. Echocardiography and 2D Speckle Tracking were performed using ultrasound devices Siemens Acuson S1000 (Germany), Vivid E9 (GE Healthcare, USA). Results. An algorithm for determining heart remodelling in HFpEF is based on the concept of a comprehensive, targeted echocardiographic assessment of the leading risk factors, pathofunctional mechanisms of the heart failure development, structural, functional abnormalities, intracardiac and pulmonary hemodynamics, contains scientifically based ultrasound signs characterized by high diagnostic efficiency. The application of the 2D Speckle Tracking echocardiography technology in the algorithm is aimed at determining subthreshold systolic ventricular dysfunction, mechanical dispersion and myocardial dyssynergy.

Material and methods. The study analyzed the articles on the types of assisted reproductive technologies from three Belarusian (BelTA, Onliner.by, Sputnik.by) and three Russian Internet publications (Rambler, Lenta.ru, RBC). Results. For the period from 08.01.2020 to 08.01.2021, a content analysis of 97 news articles on the topic of ART was carried out. Conclusions. The most popular types of technologies mentioned in the articles are in vitro fertilization, surrogacy and cryopreservation. According to statistical data there are more positive publications that reveal ART issues than negative ones. In vitro fertilization (IVF) gets more loyal coverage on news sites compared to surrogacy. This is due to the fact that in surrogacy, a third party (a surrogate mother) is directly involved in the birth of a child, which violates the so-called «intimate» side of family life.","PeriodicalId":23571,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik of Vitebsk State Medical University","volume":"31 16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75859213","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}
