Application of an extended complex of diagnostic techniques in ophthalmologic practice in order to expand the possibilities of early diagnosis and prognosis of the disease is urgent. Screening examination of patients with AMD was carried out. The technology of registration of global rhythmic activity of the brain with narrow-band filtering and long summation time was applied with the allocation of mainly long-lasting rhythmic oscillations in the frequency spectrum of 0,1-30 Hz. The peculiarities of the state of autonomic receptors of the eye in AMD have been determined. The prognostically significant signs of changes in the spectrum of the brain activating system at early and late stages of AMD were identified. The information characteristic of the weight of the sign of AMD development was obtained; that allowed to distinguish the ophthalmologic status of patients with AMD. The use of functional-topical diagnostics based on spectral analysis of rhythmic brain activity can be used as an additional non-invasive diagnostic screening test for early development of AMD, which will ensure timely and competently prescribed treatment and allow to achieve better long-term clinical outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":35293,"journal":{"name":"Advances in gerontology = Uspekhi gerontologii / Rossiiskaia akademiia nauk, Gerontologicheskoe obshchestvo","volume":"37 4","pages":"436-441"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142629836","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 aim of the study was to assess the effect of sarcopenic obesity and age-associated pathology of the visual organ on the functional abilities of patients. 132 patients with sarcopenic obesity and 134 patients with sarcopenic obesity and age-related macular degeneration were examined. The detection of sarcopenic obesity was carried out according to the criteria of reduced muscle strength (or grip strength), reduced muscle mass and increased body mass index (EWGSOP2, 2018). Age-related macular degeneration was diagnosed based on clinical recommendations. Instrumental activity in everyday life was determined by the Lawton scale. It was found that sarcopenic obesity and age-related macular degeneration reduce instrumental activity in daily life to a greater extent (M=4,72±0,07 points) than only sarcopenic obesity (M=5,91±0,09 points), p<0,001.

Any cell in the body can become senescent due to damage caused by both internal and external factors. Such cells can appear at the earliest stages of development and persist for many years. Due to the emergence of new highly effective research methods, significant progress has been made in recent years in studying and understanding the molecular mechanisms leading to senescence, as well as the effect of senescence on surrounding healthy cells in vitro and in vivo. The results of scientific studies presented in this review convincingly indicate that modern concepts of the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis cannot be formed without taking into account the role of senescent cells and such a process as inflammaging - progressive chronic sluggish systemic inflammation. In recent years, osteoarthritis has come to be considered as a process combining trauma and inflammation, since the key role of cytokines and immune cells in its pathogenesis has been established. Inflammaging is associated with increased numbers of senescent cells in osteoarthritic cartilage that secrete the aging-associated SASP phenotype. The proinflammatory environment initiated by SASP factors promotes cartilage degeneration and subchondral bone remodeling, ultimately leading to loss of cartilage function, osteoarthritis development, and disease progression.</p>","PeriodicalId":35293,"journal":{"name":"Advances in gerontology = Uspekhi gerontologii / Rossiiskaia akademiia nauk, Gerontologicheskoe obshchestvo","volume":"37 6","pages":"777-786"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143658902","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}
