The research objective is to develop a program to correct psycho-emotional and vascular-autonomic dysfunction with patients suffering from adenomyosis using complex radon, laser and drug treatment. Material and methods. There were 100 women with adenomyosis complicated by psycho-emotional and vascular-autonomic dysfunction from the age of 23 up to 37 years old who underwent treatment at a branch of Pyatigorsk Clinic of North Caucasian Federal Scientific and Clinical Centre of Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia. The patients were divided into 2 groups by a randomized method: the main group received radon, laser and drug therapy with Melaxen, the group of comparison received radon and laser therapy. Results. A comparative analysis showed the expediency of including adaptogens in the complex of sanatorium-and-spa treatment of patients with endometrial disease: the improvement of clinical symptoms in the main group compared to the group of comparison was more frequent by 1.36 times; normalization of vegetative management in the main group occurred with 72% of the patients compared to 52% in the group of comparison; in the main group the decrease in the intensity of anxious disorders was 2.64 times (p 0.01), against 1.46 times in the group of comparison (p 0.05); normalization of concentration of peptide and steroid hormones in blood serum in the main group was with 64% of the patients versus 42% in the group of comparison. Conclusion. Inclusion of Melaxen in the complex of traditional sanatorium-and-spa treatment of patients with adenomyosis (radon and laser therapy) provides significant improvement of neuroendocrine system, psycho-emotional, vegetative-vascular status.

Aim. To assess the effectiveness of the use of the antiviral drug enisamium iodide in the complex treatment of acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) caused by various pathogens in routine clinical practice. Materials and methods. А prospective randomized study included 134 patients who were treated in the epidemic season of influenza and ARVI in 20182019. All patients were examined for the presence of influenza A and B viruses, respiratory syncytial virus, human metapneumovirus, parainfluenza virus, coronaviruses, rhinoviruses, adenoviruses in nasopharyngeal swabs by PCR. Patients of the main group received enisamium iodide along with symptomatic therapy, the control group received only symptomatic therapy. The primary parameter of the effectiveness of therapy was evaluated on the scale of the general severity of the manifestations of ARVI (Total Symptom Score TSS) from the 2nd to the 4th day and by the secondary criteria of effectiveness: assessment of the duration of ARVI, the severity of fever, the proportion of patients with normal body temperature, the duration of the main clinical symptoms of acute respiratory viral infections, the proportion of patients in whom complications requiring antibiotics were noted, the dynamics of interferon status on the 6th day. To conduct a statistical analysis, depending on the efficiency parameter, the ANCOVA method with a fixed group factor and an initial score on the TSS severity scale was used as covariates, a criterion for comparing quantitative indicators in two independent groups. Results. According to the results of the analysis of the primary efficacy parameter, the median (interquartile range) of the average score on the scale of the general severity of ARVI manifestations in the main group was 4.33 (3.675.83), in the comparison group 6.00 (4.677.25; p0.001). The duration of systemic and local manifestations of acute respiratory viral infections was statistically significantly less in the main group (p=0.002 and p=0.019, respectively). Prescription of additional therapy was required in 2 (2.9%) patients of the main group (patients taking enisamium iodide), compared with 8 (11.9%) patients in the control group. Serum levels of interferon  and interferon  on the last day of treatment were statistically significantly higher in patients of the main group compared with the control group (p0.001). Treatment (excellent) was evaluated by 42 (62.7%) patients, while in the control group only 17 (25.8%) patients gave similar ratings. Both patients (p0.001) and doctors (p0.002) rated therapy tolerance better in the study group. Conclusion. The results confirmed the safety and effectiveness of enisamium iodide as a treatment for ARVI and influenza. The antiviral, interferonogenic and anti-inflammatory properties of the drug are involved in the formation of an antiviral response and reduce the risk of complications, which makes it possible to reduce the number of symptomatic agents used.

Purpose. Im proving the results of treatment of patients with ureteral stones and reducing the dam aging effects of contact lithotripsy.Materials and methods. In this study, 48 patients were examined aged 20 to 63 years. All patients admitted to the urology department with diagnoses: urolithiasis, calculus of the ureter. In all cases contact ureterolithotripsy with stenting of the upper urinary tract were performed. The patients were divided into two groups: main and control. 25 patients (52 .1%) were included into the main group, which in the postoperative period, we used low-level laser therapy (L-therapy). 23 patients were included in a control group (47.9%) who did not receive low-laser therapy. Laboratory tests and ultrasound with Doppler renal blood vessels scan were performed on admission, on the first day after the operation and on the 5-th day of hospitalization. Low-intensity laser therapy was performed within 5 days after contact ureterolithotripsy on projection of placement of stone and kidney projection by series for 5 minutes.Results. All patients admitted to the hospital, were spared from ureteral stones. In the main group during the treatment with L-therapy a decrease in the level of beta-2 microglobulin to normal was observed. (4.8 ± 0.1 mg/l on the first day. On the 5th day 2 .3 + 0.1 mg/l). In the control group during the treatment without the use of L-therapy, the average level of beta-2 microglobulin decreased but did not reach normal levels. (5.5 ± 0.1 mg/l on the first day. On the 5th day 3,2 ±0, l mg/l).Resistance index in the study group decreased compared to the control. In the control group, cases of acute pyelonephritis were observed. The average hospital stay for patients of the main group (6 days) was less than in the control group (6 .5 + days).Conclusion. The use of laser therapy in the treatment of patients who did undergo ureterolithotripsy can reduce the length of stay of the patient in the hospital and reduce the risk of acute pyelonephritis in the postoperative period. Also it can reduce the damaging effect of lithotripsy on the renal tissues.

 The study of the influence of the autonomic nervous system on the course of pregnancy, childbirth and fetal state remains relevant. Changes in the parameters of electroencephalography may be detected long before the onset of clinical symptoms in the complicated course of pregnancy.  The objective of the research was to evaluate electroencephalography in women with placental dysfunction and gestational complications taking into account the type of psychological component of gestation dominant.  Materials and methods. Electroencephalography was performed in 60 pregnant women at the age of 19 to 45 years with gestational hypertension and fetal distress during pregnancy. The main group included 40 patients, who were stratified according to the type of psychological component of gestation dominant: 10 patients with euphoric type, 20 pregnant women with anxious and depressive type, 10 patients with hypogestognostic type. The comparison group comprised 20 patients with optimal type of psychological component of gestation dominant and normal course of the first half of pregnancy. The assessment of psychological component of gestation dominant was carried out according to the method proposed by Dobriakov I.V. - "Pregnant woman attitude test". Registrations, spectral and coherent analysis of electroencephalography were performed using BrainTest-24 hardware and software complex.  \textbf{Results and discussion. }Electroencephalography of the patients of the comparison group was in line with current concepts regarding the physiological norm. In the main group, there were the following changes in electroencephalography: non-sinusoidal forms of alpha-oscillations (77.5%), high index of fast rhythms, flashes of spike waves under load, disturbances of the frontal occipital gradient with the focus on the anterior sections of the hemispheres.  Conclusions. The use of electroencephalography in women with different types of psychological component of gestation dominant in case of progressive placental dysfunction and preeclampsia on its background allows identifying characteristic changes, modifying the program of therapeutic measures, differentiating obstetric tactics and terms of delivery.

Introduction: Treatment of Helicobacter pylori has various side effects like antibiotic resistance. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of cinnamon extract on complications of treatment and eradication of H. pylori in infected people. Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, a total of 98 eligible healthy and H. pylori-infected patients approved by esophageal endoscopy were selected. The cinnamon group received multi-drug treatment including clarithromycin, amoxicillin and pantoprazole as well as a cinnamon extract capsule. The control group received multi-drug treatment and a 40 mg starch capsule. In order to analyze the cinnamon extract efficacy, the urea breath test (UBT) was performed 3 months after the start of treatment. Clinical symptoms were evaluated by a questionnaire at the beginning (day of 0), 7 days and 14 days after starting treatment. Results: The clinical symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, blurred vision, headache, metallic flavor, epigastric pain, burp, and appetite were significantly reduced in the cinnamon group (P < 0.05). The odds ratio exhibited a higher eradication rate of H. pylori in the cinnamon group (73.47% in the cinnamon group compared to 53.06% in the control group) (P = 0.036). Conclusion: Cinnamon as assisted therapy is able to alleviate the disease and reduce the complications of H. pylori treatment.

Aim. To determine the individual risk of caries debut and specific features of the primary caries in patients infected with herpes simplex virus. Methods. 51 patients with primary caries (112 teeth), ICD-10 diagnosis K02.0 (Caries limited to enamel) aged 18 to 49 (female - 42) were examined, all patients were divided into two groups: patients infected with herpes simplex virus and with clinical symptoms of herpes simplex infection (main group, 33 patients), patients infected with herpes simplex virus and without any clinical symptoms of herpes simplex infection (comparison group, 18 patients). Clinical, biochemical, immunological, laser (laser fluorescence spectroscopy) diagnostic techniques were applied. Results. High titers of blood immunoglobulin G to herpes simplex virus were found in 98% of patients examined with initial caries (K02.0). The medium risk was defined in 45% of patients of the main group and in 44% of the comparison group. The navy blue indicator color was the sign of the high risk in 49% in the control group and in 50% of the comparison group. Among the patients with high risk of caries debut the mean local enamel demineralization value according to DIAGNOdent pen was 11.5±1.6 (main group) versus 7.2±1.2 (comparison group). Conclusions. The risk of further caries progression in patients with clinical manifestations of herpes simplex infection is higher compared to patients with persistent infection without signs of active virus reproduction. Biochemical rapid test Clinpro Cario L-Pop (3M ESPE) helps to obtain objective data on oral microflora activity. The use of KaVo «DIAGNOdent pen» device is necessary for the further monitoring of caries progression.

: While Behavioral Therapy (BT) should be recommended as the first step in the treatment of OCD as well as TS, medication can be added for augmentation and in certain situations (e.g. family preference, BT not available or feasible) the priority may even reverse. This narrative review is given on the complexity of drug treatment in patients comorbid with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Tourette syndrome (TS) and other tic problems. OCD with TS is a co-occurring combination of the two generally delimitable, but in detail, also overlapping disorders which wax and wane with time but have different courses as well as necessities and options of treatment. Distinct subtypes like “tic-related OCD” are questionable. Obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS) and tics are frequently associated (OCS in TS up to 90%, tics in OCD up to 37%). Sensory-motor phenomena like urges and just-right feelings reflect some behavioral overlap. The main additional psychopathologies are attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), mood problems and anxiety. Also, hair pulling disorder and skin picking disorder are related to OCD with TS. Hence, the assessment and drug treatment of its many psychopathological problems need high clinical experience, careful planning, and ongoing evaluation/adaptation. Drugs are able to reduce clinical symptoms but cannot cure the disorders, which should be treated in parallel in their own right; i.e. for OCD serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) and for TS (tics), certain antipsychotics can be successfully prescribed. In cases of OCD with tics, when OCS responds only partially, an augmentation with antipsychotics (recommended: risperidone and aripiprazole) may improve OCS as well as tics. Also, the benzamide sulpiride, an atypical antipsychotics, may be beneficial in treating the combination of OCS, tics and anxious-depressive problems. : Probably, any additional psychopathologies of OCD might attenuate the effectiveness of SSRI on OCS; on the other hand, in cases of OCD with tics, SSRI may reduce not only OCS but also stress sensitivity and emotional problems and thus leading to better selfregulatory abilities, useful to improve tic suppression. : In sum, some clinical guidance can be given, but there remain many uncertainties because of a scarce database for psychopharmacotherapy in OCD with TS.

Введение. Поджелудочная железа (ПЖ) плода играет роль в регуляции гликемии как у плода, так и у матери. Гипергликемия матери, независимо от типа сахарного диабета (CД) сопровождается гипергликемией у плода. Напряжение функции ПЖ плода обусловливает компенсаторное увеличение eё размеров, формирование фетальной гиперинсулинемии и развитие в первые часы жизни неонатальной гипогликемии. Клинические симптомы гипогликемии присутствуют в 25-33% случаев, частота лабораторной гипогликемии - в 21-60%. Цель - оценка прогностического значения увеличения размеров ПЖ плода накануне родов в качестве предиктора неонатальной гипогликемии при CД у матери. Методика. Проведена ультразвуковая морфометрия ПЖ у 241 беременной c CД (основная группа) и у 427 здоровых беременных (контрольная группа). В основной группе у 141 (58,5%) беременной родились дети c признаками диабетической фетопатии (ДФ). Оценивались размеры ПЖ плода. У новорождённых оценивалась гликемия в динамике в 1-e и 3-и сут жизни. Проведён ретроспективный корреляционный анализ размеров поджелудочной железы плода и характер гликемии новорожденных в 1-e и 3-и cут жизни. Результаты. Выявлена отрицательная корреляция толщины ПЖ и гипогликемии новорождённого в 1-e сут жизни c линейным коэффициентом корреляции (R) минус 0,66. В 1-e сут жизни у 87,5 % этих детей возникает гипогликемия, более выраженная у недоношенных, у 50% из них, сохраняющаяся к 3-м сут жизни. Заключение. Толщина ПЖ плода более информативный и воспроизводимый показатель, чем её длина, статистически значимый как в группе ДФ, так и без неё. Неудовлетворительный контроль за течением CД у матерей увеличивает риск гипогликемии новорождённого до 100%. Более выраженная гипогликемия выявляется у недоношенных детей, у половины которых гипогликемия сохраняется к 3-м сут жизни. Background. The fetal pancreas is involved in regulation of glucose levels in both fetal and maternal plasma. Maternal hyperglycemia, regardless of the type of diabetes mellitus (DM), is accompanied by fetal hyperglycemia. This stress of the fetal pancreatic function causes a compensatory increase in the pancreas size, the development of fetal hyperinsulinemia and of neonatal hypoglycemia in the first hours of life. The frequency of laboratory hypoglycemia varies 21-60%, while its clinical symptoms are present in 25-33% of cases. Aim. To assess the prognostic value of the increase in fetal pancreas size on the eve of delivery as a predictor of neonatal hypoglycemia in maternal DM. Methods. Ultrasound of the fetal pancreas was performed in 241 pregnant women with DM (main group) and in 427 healthy pregnant women (control group). In the main group, 141 (58.5%) pregnant women had children with signs of diabetic fetopathy (DF). The size of the fetal pancreas was estimated. In newborns, glycemia was measured on the 1st and 3rd days of life. A retrospective correlation analysis of the fetal pancreas size and the neonatal glycemia was performed on the 1st and the 3rd days of life. Results. A negative linear correlation was found between the pancreas thickness and neonatal hypoglycemia on the 1st day of life (linear correlation coefficient, R, -0.66). On the 1st day of life in 87.5-100% of these newborns, hypoglycemia is observed, which is more pronounced in premature infants and which remains through the 3rd day of life in 50% of them. Conclusion. The thickness of the fetal pancreas is a more informative and reproducible indicator than its length, which was statistically significant in groups both with and without DF. Poor glycemic control in mothers increases the risk of neonatal hypoglycemia up to 100%. More pronounced hypoglycemia is observed in premature infants and persists through the 3rd day of life in half of them.

Background. Osteopathic methods are used in practical medicine, but there is little scientific research in this area, especially in the treatment of somatic diseases. The purpose of the research is to evaluate the effectiveness of osteopathy in the complex therapy of patients with chronic stone-free cholecystitis from the point of view of evidence-based medicine. Methods. The study involved 114 patients who were divided into two groups, the control group and the main group, in which osteopathic procedures were applied. The functions of the gallbladder, bile and blood biochemistry, and cholecystokinin secretion were analyzed. Results. It was found that osteopathic methods significantly increased the effectiveness of standard therapy both in terms of regression of clinical symptoms of the disease and in the functioning of the gallbladder. It is proved that the main group of patients significantly increases the secretion of cholecystokinin, which correlates with an improvement in the biochemistry of bile and its allocation. It was found that the effectiveness of osteopathic treatment methods does not depend on the gender of patients. Conclusion. The results of the study indicate a fairly pronounced therapeutic effect of osteopathic procedures in the complex therapy of patients with chronic stone-free cholecystitis. The increase in the secretion of cholecystokinin is difficult to explain from the point of view of correction of functional blocks, and this problem remains the subject of further research.
