The article demonstrates the importance of the application of new biomedical technologies in the correction of somatoform disorders in athletes. In observation were 86 athletes playing sports. Comprehensive clinical, psychological and instrumental examination showed that 11, 3% of them have some somatic pathology, but the complaint didn’t match up to this pathology, she had overdone character. Moreover, in this group in 36.4% of cases, there are previous histories of acute infectious diseases. The athletes were divided into two equal groups (main and control) by 43 people. In the main group, the athletes were treated orally with shungite in the form of tablets, in the control group - the psycho-pharmacotherapy. The same clinical and instrumental effect was observed in both groups. In the control group the undesirable effect of reducing muscle tone, drowsiness was detected. This allowed the authors to consider that it is expedient to use shungite for the correction of sym-tomatics in athletes with somatoform disorders.

 Objectives: The present aims to assess the level of urinary incontinence in experimental and control group, to assess the effectiveness of vaginal cone therapy on urinary incontinence in experimental group and control group and to associate the post-test level of urinary incontinence with the selected demographic variables among women in the experimental group. Methods: A quantitative quasi-experimental research design was conducted among 60 women with urinary incontinence. Convenience sampling technique was used. Semi-structured interview method was used to collect the demographical data and level of urinary incontinence among women was assessed by urinary incontinence diagnosis questionnaire. Results: Among 60 samples in experimental group 26 women had a moderate level of urinary incontinence, and 4 women had slight urinary incontinence whereas in control group 24 women had moderate level of urinary incontinence and 6 women had slight urinary incontinence. The study results show significant improvement in level of urinary incontinence among experimental group than the control group after the intervention at the level of p<0.05. This reveals that vaginal cone therapy is highly significant in the experimental group because pelvic muscle strength had improved and allows the patient to increase the physiological consciousness and promotes the muscle tone after the use of a vaginal cone. Conclusion: This study proves that vaginal cone therapy is the effective non-pharmacological method, cost-effective method and had no side effects which can be used to treat female urinary incontinence.

Research background. One of the newest children’s cerebral palsy abilitation techniques are special neuro – orthopedic suits, which are used in physiotherapy procedures. “Atlant” suit rehabilitation has been introduced relatively recently, and it has not yet been extensively studied, especially in comparison with other methods. In Lithuania, this treatment method was introduced only a year ago. There is still lack of information about these suits effect on the motor skills of children with cerebral palsy. The aim of the research was to evaluate the effectiveness of physiotherapy using Atlanto suit for children with cerebral palsy. Methods. The research included 20 subjects, 14 boys and 6 girls. Participants were divided into two groups: experimental and control (10 children each). Participants were evaluated twice; at the beginning and at the end of rehabilitation. Points of evaluation included: • lower limb muscle tone (according to the modified Asworth scale); • range of joint motion (goniometry); • balance and gait (according Tinetti scale); • gross motor function (according to the gross motor measure scale – GMFM-88). Results. The study showed that the experimental group, where “Atlant” suit was used figures were statistically significantly higher (p < 0.05) assessing: evaluating the changes of muscle tone; changes of balance and gait and changes of gross motor functions, in comparison with the control group, which did not apply to neuro – orthopedic suit. Evaluated figures changes of joint range of motion for the experimental and control groups it was established that they did not differ statistically significant (p > 0.05). Conclusion. Physiotherapy combined with “Atlant” suit is more effective than conventional methods of physiotherapy treatment, improving children’s, suffering from cerebral palsy, general motor function, balance and gait and also muscle tone reduction.Keywords: children, cerebral palsy, “Atlant” suit.

Introduction. In patients with chronic loco-motor system diseases the pain often persists after arthroplasty and does not respond to symptomatic therapy.Purpose of study: to evaluate the efficacy of perioperative use of Meloxicam in patients after hip arthroplasty. Patients and methods. The follow-up covered 120 patients (mean age 64.4±5.23 years) after hip arthroplasty. In the main group (n=60) Meloxicam was given 7 days prior to and 3 weeks after surgery; after intervention narcotic analgesic was used on the request. In control group (n=60) the patients were only on narcotic analgesic on request after operation. Treatment results were assessed by 100-millimeter visual analog scale (VAS) and D’Aubigné-Postel Score.Results. Seven days before the surgery the pain severity in the main and control groups was comparable: 85±2.3 and 84±2.1, respectively. In 2 days after operation the pain relief was more pronounced in the main group — 69±2.1 mm versus 82±3.4 mm in the control group (p0.05). In 3 months those indices made up 10±2.1 and 35±12.6 mm (p0.001), respectively. In the main group the result was assessed as the excellent and good in 22 patients, in the rest of patients as satisfactory by d’Aubigné-Postel Score. In the control group the good result was recorded in 9, satisfactory — in 47 and poor — in 4 cases.Conclusion. Meloxicam may be considered as an effective perioperative analgesic in large joints arthroplasty.

An original hypothesis for the detection of suicidal readiness has been proposed: the dissociation between low self-esteem of personal qualitiesand high level of claims in behavior exists in all types of suicides. The main point is that suicide occurs in a situation where environmental conditions are appear to be completely incompatible with a person’s self-esteem; preserving the personality then the protective adaptive response of the personality is accomplished in the most radical way – self-destruction. Therefore, to detect readiness for suicide, you can use the methods of experimental psychological (psychodiagnostic) research. These are methods of self-assessment of a situation, that is, a tests assessing one's own merits and determining the level of claims in behavior. Discrepancies in the performance of these tests will reflect the degree of readiness for suicide. Confirmation has been obtained through clinical and experimental psychological research. On the material of 240 subjects, the modified methods of Dembo – Rubinstein and Hoppe were used. The main group consisted of 160 persons who committed suicidal attempts, of which 98 women and 62 men, average age (41.0 ± 9.7) years, including 86 with depressive disorders, 46 with neurotic disorders and 28 mentally healthy. In the control group there were 80 healthy individuals who did not commit suicidal attempts, with identical gender balance, average age and social status. The modification of the methods was that the results were presented in quantitative terms in points. In the main group, the dissociation indicators between the high level of claims and low self-esteem according to the methods of Dembo – Rubinstein and F. Hoppe were 46.8 ± 4.6, and in the control group – 27.00 ± 5.24 (P < 0,001). The difference between dissociation in the main and control groups is very significant (P < 0,0005), a score of 40–45 points indicates a suicidal risk, and 50–55 and more confidently point to the upcoming suicide attempt. As a result, the hypothesis is confirmed and a valid method of predicting suicide or assessing the degree of its risk arises; the method is suitable for practical use.

Purpose: to compare two types of phacoemulsification parameters (combination ultrasound and torsional US with IP) with estimating the number of postoperative complications caused by intraoperative trauma of corneal endothelial cells.Patients and methods. 72 patients underwent phacoemulsification with IOL implantation. Patients were randomly divided into two groups (main n = 33 and control n = 39). During the aspiration of lens fragments in the main group the combination ultrasound was used, while torsional US with IP was used in the control group. Endothelial cell counting and other examinations were performed 1 day, 1 week and 6 months after the surgery.Results. CDVA in the explored groups 1 week after the surgery was similar: the main group — 0.813 ± 0.228, the control group — 0.765 ± 0.250, There was also no statistically significant difference in the thickness of the cornea between the groups: the main group — 533.48 ± 12.41, the control group — 536.44 ± 10.92. At the same time, a statistically significant difference was found in the density of endothelial cells: the main group: 1871.30 ± 187.41 (after 1 week), 1865 ± 178.9 (after 6 months); control group: 1809.63 ± 225.43 (after 1 week), 1791 ± 230.82 (after 6 months). The percentage of cell loss was, respectively, lower in the main group at all times of observation: 3.90% (after 1 day), 4.54% (after 1 week), 4.9% (after 6 months). In the control group: 7.71% (after 1 day), 9.25% (after 1 week), 10.4% (after 6 months).Conclusions. Data obtained in this study has showed the advantages of combination ultrasound in comparison with torsional US with IP, when performing aspiration of dense lenses. Due to lower consumption of ultrasound energy and higher aspiration rate of the fragments, combination ultrasound can reduce the loss of corneal endothelial cells and decrease the number and severity of postoperative complications associated with it.

The article contains the results of a study of two different methods for calculating the spectral parameters of laser Doppler flowmetry in patients with diabetic microangiopathy caused by type 2 diabetes mellitus (main group) and those with excluded diabetes mellitus (control group). Spectral indices were calculated using either average or maximum amplitudes of the frequency ranges. When comparing the contribution of respiratory and pulse fluxmotions using average amplitudes, there were significant (p < 0.05) differences between the main and control groups. On the contrary, when using the maximum amplitudes, no significant differences were noted (p > 0.05). Also, significant correlations were found between the contributions of respiratory and pulse fluxmotions and the estimated glomerular filtration rate in the main group, using both calculation methods. These studies indicate the feasibility of using a technique based on the analysis of average amplitudes to increase the specificity of laser Doppler flowmetry as a method for diagnosing diabetic microangiopathy.

Background. Аn L-arginine is a conditionally essential amino acid. The daily average requirement is 4.2 mg. The L-arginine exhibits angioprotective properties, regulates proliferation and apoptosis, oxidative processes, blocks platelet aggregation and has a fibrinolytic effect ‒ antithrombotic (prevents the adhesion of circulating platelets and leukocytes) for anti-inflammatory effects. The likelihood of developing thrombotic complications in all patients with COVID-19 is very high, such patients are recommended to double dosage of anticoagulants. Objective. To study the combination of the anticoagulant therapy and the drug Tivortin in patients with coronary artery disease with COVID-19. Materials and methods. 28 patients with the cardiac ischemia of the exertion stenocardia functional class II-III with COVID-19 were examined. The patients were divided into the main and control groups. One of the groups, in addition to the anticoagulant therapy Clexan 2 times 0.6 mg, have taken the drug Tivortin, manufactured by “Yuria-Pharm” (Ukraine), containing L-arginine (4.2 mg). Results. The therapy with the use of the nitrate oxide donors in combination with the anticoagulants in the main group showed an increase in exercise tolerance, in the SpO2 level, i.e., a decrease in hypoxia in the main group compared with the control group. Conclusions. The addition of Tivortin to the therapy of anticoagulants that inhibit the activity of the blood coagulation system may increase the chances of survival of patients hospitalized with COVID-19.
