The dynamics of the healing of experimentally reproduced bone defects filled with different polyacrylamide gel-based compounds

Time course of healing of standard osseous defects by introduction of polyacrylamide gel (PAG)-based materials was studied in rat experiments. PAG did not prevent the formation of soft-tissue and osseous regenerate in bone defects. Addition of hydroxyapatite, bactericidal agent, and lysozyme to PAG-based composition led in some cases to development of chronic inflammation and giant-cell reaction in osseous wound and to inhibition of the reparative processes.     

Potentialities of life quality evaluation for gastroenterological patients

Quality of life (QL) was studied in 112 patients with gastroenterological diseases: 29 cases of gastric ulcer (GU), 53 cases of duodenal ulcer (DU) and 30 cases of chronic pancreatitis (CP). QL was judged according to the test of the Cardiological Research Center of the RAMS. QL in the above gastroenterological diseases was related to restrictions in the diet, emotional and muscular load, long-term treatment. The integral quantitative indices of QL were worse in CP and GU than in DU, and deteriorated with the disease duration and severity. A close correlation was found between QL and subjective symptoms of the disease, especially pain syndrome. The proposed approach to qualitative and quantitative assessment of gastroenterological patients's quality of life adequately reflects this complex phenomenon and closely correlated with clinical evidence.     

脾切除对小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞数量和功能的影响

目的：研究脾切除对小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞数量和功能活性的影响。方法：术后4周获取腹腔常居巨噬细胞和炎症巨噬细胞,检测其数量、吞噬功能和一氧化氨水平。结果：与正常对照组和假手术组比较,脾切除组小鼠的2种巨噬细胞不仅数量明显减少,而且它们的吞噬功能和一氧化氮水平呈明显下降。结论：提示脾切除造成的单核吞噬细胞继发性炎症反应的捐伤和巨噬细胞功能活性的降低,可能是脾切除后(凶险性)感染的重要因素。     

The methods of traditional medicine in outpatient polyclinic practice

Some 7950 patients have been treated at the traditional medicine department of the Consulting and Diagnostic Center N52, 2/3rds of them came after long and unsuccessful medicamental treatment. Psychotherapy, manual therapy and acupuncture-reflex methods were successful in 86-93% of cases. They are recommended for local clinics provided that the latter are properly equipped and stuffed.     

Visual evoked potentials and the P300 component in different courses of the posttraumatic vegetative state

The late latency components of visual evoked potentials (VEP) and the component P300 AEP were analyzed to evaluate their informative value in the process of mental function restoration in patient after long-term traumatic coma. VEP components with latencies of 70 to 320 msec were studied in 24 patients. Topographical mapping of the power of the study VEP components and components P300 was made by the peak amplitude. Long-term VEP components and component P300 were examined by the method of three-dimensional localization of equivalent dipole sources. In 16 patients with positive tendencies in the condition there was a stable localization of the maximum VEP power in the parietal, sagittal, and occipital regions, component P300 showed its maximum amplitude in the central and parietal regions in the left hemisphere. Eight patients with negative tendencies in the status had the maximum VEP and component P300 in the frontal and temporal regions, predominantly in the right hemisphere. The paper shows it important to evaluate not only time-amplitude parameters and analyzes the tomographic features of its formation in dynamics.     

Treatment of urinary fistulas with allogenic fibroblasts growth culture

15(2.4%) of 601 patients (392 have undergone transvesical adenomectomy, 111 had gunshot wound of the external genitalia and small pelvis organs, 98 had closed pelvic traumas, injuries of the urinary bladder and posterior urethra) were treated for persistent urinary fistulas with human allogenic fibroblasts growth cultures grown in the artificial medium. Before transplantation into the fistula tracts, the fibroblasts were grown in bioreactor on the microcarriers. Application of allogenic fibroblast growth culture has reduced hospital stay to 7.5 days. This method is simple and effective in inpatients. Use of allogenic fibroblasts allows to create bank of cell transplants for application in clinical practice.
