The aim of the study – to evaluate the role of expression of specific connective tissue proteins in the formation of the scar on the uterus. Materials and Methods. The study was performed on the basis of the regional perinatal center and KU PB No. 5 during 2017–2019. 426 women with a scar on the uterus were examined, including 115 (27.0 %) with two or more scars. The mean age of the subjects was (33.4±1.1) years. The results of sonographic studies were analyzed. For pathomorphological examination, three cases of intranatal rupture of the uterine wall along the “old” scar after cesarean section from middle-aged women with a gestational age of 33 to 40 weeks are presented. The expression of collagen types 1 and 3 and the protein of the intermediate filaments of the muscle tissue of desmin was determined using a semi-quantitative method with the calculation of H-score. Results and Discussion. Analysis of ultrasound data showed that the average assessment of the degree of insolvency of the scar on the uterus was in the examined women X=(1.3±0.2) points, a high level of insolvency was found in 114 (26.8 %) pregnant women. At the same time, 225 (52.8 %) pregnant women showed no signs of scar failure at all. In 87 (20.4 %) one sign of uterine scar failure was found, in 76 (17.8 %) – two signs, in 20 (4.7 %) – three signs, and in 18 (4.2 %) – four signs. Subsequently, 44 (10.3 %) women were born operatively, the rest gave birth per via naturales. Local myometrial defect after ultrasound delivery was detected in 25 of 182 (13.7 %) women who gave birth independently. Conclusions. A high level of scar failure risk is found in 26.8 % of pregnant women. H-score valuesfor collagen types 1 and 3 averaged (212±24) and (188±22), for desmin – (193±17). Thus, reparative processes at the site of previous surgery on the uterine wall are by incomplete regeneration (substitution) and compensatory hyperplasia of structural tissue elements.

When it comes to zakat obligations, people only know certain types of zakat that are obligated to be issued. There are two types of zakat; zakat fitrah and zakat property. However, zakat’s division may vary according to the state's fatwa. In Selangor, Lembaga Zakat Selangor (LZS) is the body that governs the administration and implementation of Zakat. The breakdown of zakat property is Zakat on Income, Zakat on Business, Zakat on Savings, Zakat on Gold and Silver, Zakat on Investments and Shares, Zakat on KWSP, Zakat on Paddy, Zakat on Agriculture, Zakat on Wealth and Treasure, and the Zakat on Takaful. However, this study will only focus on Zakat Takaful. Under Zakat Takaful, there are several divisions which are Zakat Wang Takaful/Takaful Investment, Zakat on Maturity Policy, Takaful Compensation, Tabarruq Fund, Benefit of Total and Permanent Disability, and Compensation of Conventional Insurance Policy. Each of these sections has its calculation method which will be explained further. This study was conducted to identify the level of knowledge and acceptance of Takaful Muslim consumers on the implementation of Zakat Takaful that has been introduced by LZS. Besides, this study will also look at the knowledge of Takaful agents and their willingness to disseminate information of Zakat Takaful to their customers. This study was conducted by using the sampling method and descriptive data analysis. The study found that on average, respondents' knowledge on Zakat Takaful is low with a mean of 2.32. However, the mean for acceptance is 3.93 which is set at a high level thus showed a good acceptance of the survey respondents. Through this study, it can be concluded that knowledge and acceptance are both very important in achieving the objective of implementing Zakat Takaful. Knowledge by Takaful participants who are also assisted by agents who play the role of conveying knowledge of Zakat Takaful is directly perceived to have a more effective effect in addition to the behavior/attitude that forms the intention of Takaful participnts to accept the implementation and to pay Zakah Takaful. This study is also expected to be the push factor among the zakat agents to play a role in disseminating the right information about Zakat Takaful to their customers, which also can be regarded as one of the da'wah forms.

Cesarean section (CS) is the most widespread operation despite of high frequency of intra and post operational complications as opposed to spontaneous delivery. The aim of investigation (objective) is the analysis of outcomes of CS in every stages during and after CS. Material and methods. There is a retrospective analysis of 675 patients after CS. 60 women after pregnancy; 75 patients with insolvent scar after previous CS during planning of the next pregnancy; 540 scarred pregnant women in term and 24 pregnant women with implantation in the scar. Results. The application of the secondary sutures is indicated in the case of insufficient sutures on the uterine wall. The metroplastic operation is indicated during the next pregnancy. The insufficiency of the previous uterine scar is the indication for CS in more than 70 %. The earliest diagnosis of the localization of the placenta in the scar is desirable. The most cautious method of pregnancy interruption should be used with immediate or postponed metroplastic.

The purpose of this article is to offer contextual linguistic explanations for morphosyntactic deviances (MSDs) in high-level second language (L2) French (30 nonnative speakers vs. 10 native speakers). It is hypothesized that the distribution of formulaic sequences (FSs) and the complexity of information structure will influence the occurrence of MSDs. The study reports that MSDs rarely occur within FSs, and if they do, they occur within sequences containing open slots for creative rule application. The rhematic part of the utterance attracts more MSDs due to the fact that this part is more syntactically complex than the preamble (the thematic part). An additional explanation is the mean length of the rhematic part, which is longer than the preamble and implies a higher processing load. A final explanation of MSD occurrence in the rheme is linked to the distribution of FSs in the information structure. The results are discussed in relation to the ongoing debate on the constructs of complexity, accuracy, and fluency—a promising area of study.

The purpose of this study was to determine the level of nesfatin-1 (NF-1) in the blood serum of healthy volunteers and patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to establish the threshold for normal values of this parameter and to reveal the relationship between the level of NF-1 and clinical manifestations of RA. We examined 170 people, of which 110 patients with RA and 60 donors who made up the comparison group. The mean level of serum nesfatin-1 in healthy subjects was 31.61 ± 3.17 ng/ml (M ± σ). The level of normal values of nesfatin-1 in healthy individuals, defined as M ± 2σ, was from 25.27 to 37.95 ng/ml. These studies showed the relationship between the concentration of NF-1 and the severity of clinical manifestations of RA. We found that a higher serum level of NF-1 was characteristic of patients with a more severe clinical course of the disease. The data obtained indicate that high level of NF-1 positively correlates with higher concentrations of C-reactive protein and ESR. This data indirectly proves the pro-inflammatory effect of NF-1 and confirms the hypothesis about the primary role of systemic inflammation in the pathogenesis of RA.

Circulating platelet aggregates have been observed in various thromboembolic states. It is known that severe preeclamsia is associated with features of intravascular coagulation. To evaluate the role of platelets in this disorder we have determined circulating platelet aggregates in 10 patients with severe preeclampsia, in 30 patients in the third trimester of uncomplicated pregnancies and in 35 healthy nonpregnant volunteers. Platelet aggregate ratio /P.A.R./ was measured by a modification of a method described by Wu and Hoak, The mean P.A.R. of severe preeclamptic patients /0.732 ± 0,063 SEM/ was significantly lower than that of the uncomplicated pregnant women /0,860 ± 0,052 SEM/ and of the nonpregnant volunteers /0.880 ± 0,061 SEM/.The results indicate that severe preeclamptic patients have increased levels of circulating platelet aggregates and platelet activation is a feature of preeclampsia.
