Key Points. The consequences of a sex hormones deficiency in women with POI are not only short-term clinical manifestations similar to menopause, but also long-term negative outcomes for general health and life. HRT has therapeutic and prophylactic potential for all clinical aspects of the disease. However, the currently developed standard therapeutic strategies do not always allow to completely stop the symptoms of POI and ensure reliable prevention of complications in the future. Conclusion. The choice of adequate doses and composition of HRT, along with an interdisciplinary approach to the treatment of this pathology, will make it possible to level the associated risks and ensure a high quality of life for patients.

Design: Comparative randomised clinical study. Materials and methods. This study enrolled 67 patients with primary ischemic stroke which occurred during past 6 months, complicated with hemiparesis or lower limb monoparesis. Patients included 47 men and 20 women aged 44 to 75 years old. Patients were divided into two groups: in the study group (n = 36), the primary rehabilitation was supplemented with multimodal stimulation exercises on a training virtual reality set; controls (n = 31) had only primary therapy. Rehabilitation efficiency was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Medical Research Council Scale (MRCS), Tinetti Test, Rivermead Mobility Index. Results. In the study group, a course of rehabilitation resulted in marked improvement in motor functions and functional independence. NIHSS symptoms intensity decreased from 5.5 [4.0; 7.0] to 4.0 [3.0; 5.0] points in the study group and from 6.0 [5.0; 7.0] to 5.0 [4.5; 6.0] points in the control group (p = 0.019). Rivermead Mobility Index increased from 7.0 [6.0; 10.0] to 10.0 [8.0; 12.0] points in the study group and from 7.0 [5.0; 7.5] to 8.0 [6.5; 10.5] points in the control group (p = 0.049). When multimodal stimulation was added, also a more prominent increase in the MRCS muscle strength of the lower limb was observed: an increase was 0.7 [0.3; 0.9] points in the study group and 0.4 [0.2; 0.7] points in controls (p = 0.046).

Key points. LBP is a common (affecting 7.5 % of the world population) and socially significant condition (one of the leading causes of disability worldwide). The efficiency of drug pain management in chronic LBP is approximately 40 %, therefore, non-drug treatment options are required. The neuropathic component of chronic LBP is associated with reorganization in cortex brain structures Hence, neural stimulation is a most promising approach to chronic LBP management, while transcranial direct current electrotherapy stimulation (TEdC) and rhythmic transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) are the most efficient and safest neural stimulation methods. rTMS is an efficient and safe approach to the management both of nociceptive and neuropathic pain, which is a common component of chronic conditions, in particular of LBP. The main area of exposure is motor cortex areas (М1). As compared to TEdC, rTMS is better tolerated by patients and demonstrates better pain management results. Conclusion. Pain syndrome is a significant limitation to rehabilitation in patients with LBP, and drug pain management is inefficient. We suggest that anaesthetic neuromodulation be included into a complex therapy of such patients. The most widely used and efficient neuromodulation techniques are TEdC and rTMS.

Key Points. Cervical cancer (CC) is a multi-stage process that is often preceded by human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated intraepithelial lesions. The establishment of causal interactions between the virus and malignancy, as well as the study of epidemiological data, leads to the formation of models of cervical carcinogenesis: infection, persistence, progression to the precancerous stage, and finally, cervical cancer. Despite the clear and obvious path of malignancy, as well as the availability of generally available diagnostic methods in the arsenal of a practicing obstetrician-gynecologist, the assessment and prediction of the further development of cervical pathologies in patients of active reproductive age remains difficult. In general, cervical cancer can be considered an excellent model for understanding the staging of malignancy processes, which will be primarily associated with the impact of human papillomavirus infection and changes in the immunological aspects of endo-and exo-cervix. Conclusion. An analysis of sources published in the Cochrane Librare, Google Scolare and PubMed systems was carried out. In recent years, the understanding of human papillomavirus-associated tumor interaction with the host immune system has improved, so the development of new approaches targeting immune checkpoints has sparked interest in the use of immunotherapy in cervical cancer. CC is curable if detected at an early stage. However, reliable diagnostic and prognostic markers related to the physiological and pathological regulation of cervical cancer are currently not available. Therefore, the approach to the treatment of cervical cancer has remained unchanged for several decades, and new diagnostic strategies are currently required, due to the interaction of the immune system and the virus.

A survey of patients was conducted, including information about the symptoms, severity of the course and ongoing therapy for COVID-19. Results.
