The paper considers various variants of nervous system injury in alcoholic disease. It discusses the epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and clinical manifestations of central and peripheral nervous system lesions in the presence of acute and chronic alcohol intoxication. Attention is paid to the issues of etiotropic, pathogenetic, and symptomatic treatment for neurological manifestations of alcoholic disease and to the role of neurotropic B vitamins in the treatment of alcohol-induced deficiency and non-deficiency states.

The consideration is given to problems of alcoholic disease-pathology, which has recently become so widespread in many countries, and is ranked number three in the causes of death and disability after cardiovascular and oncological diseases. The article highlights the main issues of pathogenesis and diagnostics of the most common affection of internal organs resulted from alcoholic etiology. Special attention is paid to laboratory methods for diagnosing the acute and chronic alcohol intoxication.

The authors consider alcohol disease (AD) as an independent disease, the pathogenesis of which passes 3 stages: episodic alcohol intoxication, drunkenness and alcoholism. In the last 2 stages, severe changes in organs and tissues develop. In this case, Mallory bodies appear in the liver, which is considered to be a marker of chronic alcohol intoxication (CAI). They are observed in most patients with alcoholism and very rarely in those suffering from alcoholism. The authors believe that the alcoholic hyaline Mallory bodies, appearing in the liver and other organs in CAI, is an autoantigen to which the body responds with an autoimmune inflammatory response that is not curable. Therefore, drunkenness, in which there are no Mallory bodies, is curable when alcohol is consumed within the basal metabolism of the liver and treated by therapists, and the treatment of alcoholism is futile. Therefore, the problem of CAI can be solved only with the active treatment of the stage of drunkenness by therapists with the participation of psychiatrists.

A range of neurological manifestations associated with COVID-19 have been reported in the literature, but the pathogenesis of these have yet to be fully explained. The majority of cases of peripheral nervous system disease published thus far have shown a symmetrical pattern. In contrast, we describe the case of a patient with asymmetrical predominantly upper-limb sensorimotor polyneuropathy following COVID-19 infection, likely due to a multifactorial pathological process involving critical illness neuropathy, mechanical injury and inflammatory disease. His presentation, management and recovery contribute to the understanding of this complex condition and informs rehabilitation approaches.

In a chronopharmacological experiment, the effect of two drugs with psychotropic action in combinations on the behavior of laboratory animals subjected to chronic alcohol intoxication was examined. Against the background of a deprimating agent, a decrease in the threshold of sensitivity to electrical irritation and the duration of an aggressive reaction was revealed; an increase in these indicators was established with a combination of a deprimating drug with an antioxidant. It has been shown that the antioxidant has a desynchronizing effect on the behavioral reactions of laboratory animals for two days, which indicates a pronounced adaptive effect. In the case of using combinations of a deprimating agent with an antioxidant, a decrease in the destruction of the histological structure of the myocardium against the background of chronic alcoholization was established.
