The incidence of ischemic stroke increases with age and is particularly high in people aged ≥80 years. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of reperfusion therapies (intravenous thrombolysis, endovascular thrombectomy, intravenous thrombolysis+ endovascular thrombectomy) in acute ischemic stroke patients aged over 80 years in one of the largest comprehensive stroke centers in Armenia. The study was based on retrospective analyses of prospectively gathered data from all stroke patients of Astghik medical center benefiting reperfusion therapies from 1 February 2021 to 30 April 2022. The safety was evaluated by assessing in-hospital complications and in-hospital and 3-months mortality rates. The efficacy was defined as neurological improvement at discharge and a modified Rankin scale 0-2 (or a return to at least the pre-stroke modified Rankin scale) at 3 months. A total of 216 patients with acute ischemic stroke were treated with reperfusion therapies. The number of patients aged 80 years or over was 41(18,9%). The study group had a mortality rate of 9,7% in an in-hospital setting and 22% at 3 months. Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage was detected in 3 cases (7.3%). None of the patients developed aspiration pneumonia. 32 patients (78%) had neurological improvement at discharge and 21 patients (51%) were independent or regained pre-stroke activities at 3 months. Based on our results we support the wider application of reperfusion therapies in this age group to reduce disability and improve post-stroke outcomes.","PeriodicalId":353660,"journal":{"name":"THE NEW ARMENIAN MEDICAL JOURNAL","volume":"66 10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130054419","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}

Published studies most researched overweight/obesity and its contributing variables in this population. However, underweight can threat health and wellbeing of the students during academic period. The Objective of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of weight status and to explore associated factors of underweight among the students from Yasuj University of Medical Sciences.\u0000Methods: In a cross-sectional study, a random sample including 455 students were recruited from Yasuj University of Medical Sciences, Iran, during 2018-2019. Academic, socio-demographic and anthropometric characteristics of the students were gathered through a structured questionnaire. Body mass index was determined and classified according to the World Health Organization reference. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize data in numbers and percentages. The relationships of students’ characteristics with their weight status were checked using Chi-square test. Factors associated with underweight occurrence in students were detected by analyzing multiple binary logistic regression model and adjusted odds ratio.\u0000Result: Of the total participated students 87.5% were 19-24 years old and 66.2% were female. The mean ± standard deviation of students’ weight and BMI were 61.42±11.51and 22.14±3.36, respectively. The prevalence of underweight, normal weight and overweight/obesity among students were 15%, 66.15 and 18.9%, respectively. Among the considered variables, age (OR: 0.78 95% CI: 0.63,0.97), gender (OR:2.o8 95% CI: 1.o8, 3.99), number of educational term (OR:1.25, 95% CI: 1.06, 1.47) and father’s occupation (Or:2.13 95% CI:1.14, 3.99) were significantly associated with the underweight occurrence in students.\u0000Conclusion. The prevalence of underweight and overweight/obesity among studied university students were high. The younger students, female students, students at higher number of educational term and students with fathers not an employee were at higher risk of being underweight.

As time passes and our understanding of this novel respiratory virus deepens, it is increasingly clear that its effects extend beyond that of the respiratory system. The link with endocrine disorders was noticed quite early when it was found that patients with diabetes and uncontrolled hyperglycemia were at an increased risk of severe disease as well as mortality from COVID-19. However, the other endocrine manifestations of COVID-19 probably were more subtle and information about them emerged more gradually over a period of time. Thyroid diseases are common endocrine disorders, and accordingly, a lot of attention has gone into the study of how COVID-19 affects the thyroid. Although the majority of mild to moderate COVID-19 patients remain euthyroid, a significant proportion of those with severe disease manifest with abnormalities in thyroid function. These manifestations include low thyroid stimulating hormone and low T3 levels, whereas low T4 levels were observed less commonly. Apart from this, several reports of subacute thyroiditis following COVID-19 have also been published. Similarly, Graves’ disease has been reported to occur in patients who had recovered from COVID-19. We present a case of a 55-year-old woman who presented to the emergency department and her physical examinations and laboratory results were significant for myxedema coma and the patient was given levothyroxine with improvement of symptoms and mild change in thyroid hormone levels during hospitalization.","PeriodicalId":353660,"journal":{"name":"THE NEW ARMENIAN MEDICAL JOURNAL","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133106990","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}

Under physiological conditions, perivascular adipose tissue maintains normal vascular function by releasing anti-atherogenic, anti-inflammatory, and vasodilating biologically active substances. Until recently, adipose tissue was considered a morphological unit with only a thermoregulatory and shock-absorbing function; however, with the development and improvement of modern medical science, we can confidently assert that adipose tissue is a factory for the production of biologically active substances with a broad spectrum of action. The released biologically active substances have both autocrine and paracrine effects, thus playing a pivotal role in maintaining the morphophysiological balance of the whole organism.\u0000Various theories are put forward about the possible key role of perivascular adipose tissue in the pathogenesis of various diseases. It has been shown that perivascular tissue is an independent cardiovascular risk factor, even without visceral obesity. When exposed to specific pathogens, the regulation of adipocytes is disrupted, and a subsequent rearrangement of the adipocyte production profile occurs. The secretion of damaged adipocytes exhibits the following properties: anti-atherogenic, anti-inflammatory, and vasodilating, with subsequent initiation or progression of cardiovascular disease.\u0000Within the framework of this review article, the following are raised and comprehensively discussed: the function of perivascular adipose tissue in health and disease and its contribution to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. This review aims to analyze the data of modern literature, reflecting the photomorphogenesis of changes in the secretory activity of perivascular adipose tissue, along with the molecular mechanisms of cardiovascular system alteration.","PeriodicalId":353660,"journal":{"name":"THE NEW ARMENIAN MEDICAL JOURNAL","volume":"151 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124366238","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}

Angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 plays a key role in contagiousness with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, and its formation is a calcium-calmodulin-dependent process. In our opinion, in order to prevent the penetration and spreading of the virus in the body, this link should be targeted with the usage of drugs that activate the calcium calmodulin system. Calcium blockers used parallel with hypocalcemia, to some extent, reduce the spreading of the virus in the body in the acute phase of the disease, but it is possible that in the future they lead to deeper and long-term complications - cognitive dysfunction.\u0000However, we did not find any study in the literature that aimed to identify calcium-dependent mechanisms in a complex, dynamic study of the same patients. Therefore, this question is still open in science, because without understanding how the amount of calcium-regulating hormones changes during the disease, without understanding how much phosphorus changes in parallel with calcium, it is impossible to get a complete picture of the disease on the role of calcium-dependent mechanisms in development.
