Aim. To compare the effectiveness of osteopathic treatment of infants with psychomotor development disorders with standard treatment in terms of functional status. Methods. The study was conducted at the Yaroslav-the-Wise Novgorod State University and the Institute of Osteopathic Medicine named after V.L. Andrianov, between 2020 and 2021. The study included 49 children with delayed psychomotor development, of which: the main group consisted of 26 children receiving osteopathic treatment; the control group consisted of 23 children treated with standard therapies. Data gathered included the indicators of the functional health state, complaints of parents, assessed neurological, vegetative, and osteopathic statuses, the psychomotor development in the children according to the ZhurbaMastyukova scale, performed neurosonography. The results were processed using descriptive statistics followed by checking for the significance of the difference by using the Student's t-criterion for related samples. Results. A comparison of the effectiveness of osteopathic and standard treatment of infants with a delay in psychomotor development by indicators of the functional status was carried out. The need for an integrated approach to therapeutic and diagnostic procedures was substantiated. The number of subjective complaints about the health of children from parents in the main group decreased, while in the control group, it remained the same. Neurological status in children of both groups improved, but the changes are more pronounced in the main group (p 0.05). The outcomes of the treatments indicate for improving psychomotor development of the children in the main group, in the control group, such an increase was only 13.0% (p 0.001). Conclusion. The results of the study showed that osteopathic treatment of infants with psychomotor development disorders is more effective than standard complex treatment, which is reflected in the improvement of functional health indicators.

Relevance: Modern endonasal surgery allows to remove polyps from all affected paranasal sinuses, following the principles of minimal invasiveness. Minimal traumatic of surgical intervention gives the best results, accompanied by less progression of the disease. Minimal invasiveness of surgical intervention and its obligatory combination with postoperative medical treatment are common practice in many countries. One of the drugs that actively effect the restoration of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses in the early postoperative period is Nazomer, which includes sodium hyaluronate and dexpanthenol in saline solution. The purpose of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of the drug Nazomer in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis after endoscopic polyposynosotomy. Results and discussion: The main group consisted of 30 patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis, who were prescribed Nasomer in addition to standard treatment in the postoperative period. The control group included 30 patients who underwent standard treatment in the postoperative period. As criteria for clinical efficacy, data from endoscopic examination of the nasal cavity and indicators of anterior rhinomatometry, measured by the «Optimus» device, were selected. In the main group, the index of nasal breathing according to rhinomatometry was better than the results of patients in the control group on the 3rd and 5th day of the postoperative period by 26% and 24%, respectively. Conclusion: The use of the drug Nazomer in the postoperative period in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis contributes to more active restoration of respiratory function of the nasal cavity compared with the control group, according to rhinomatometry, up to 26%. Based on the results obtained, the drug Nazomer is an effective anti-inflammatory and regenerative agent in the postoperative period in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis.

Chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) is characterized by tissue inflammation around the tooth tip. Unstable outcomes of current treatments against CAP dictate the need for novel therapeutic techniques and medications. The aim of this study was to analyzed the effects of hirudotherapy on the treatment course in patients with CAP. Forty-one study participants aged 25 to 40 years were divided into the main group (20 patients) and the control group (21 patients). Pain level and the gingival index (GI) were measured in all study participants. During the first visit, pain scores did not differ significantly between the control (5.81 ± 0.65) and the main (5.75 ± 0.92) groups. During the second visit, pain was almost unnoticeable in the main group patients (1.05 ± 0.34), whereas pain scores were higher in the control group (4.10 ± 0.7). Our findings suggest a positive effect of hirudotherapy used in combination with standard treatment regimens.

The purpose of the research is to improve the efficiency of restorative treatment of patients with chronic generalized periodontitis based on the inclusion in therapeutic schemes of innovative mineral bishophytic complexes ― gel "Bishophytic" and rinser "Polymineral." Materials and methods. The study involved 116 patients at the age of 35 to 73 years old suffering from periodontal pathology (mild and moderate chronic generalized periodontitis). They were distributed by simple randomization into 3 groups: the main group included 43 people who received standard treatment in accordance with Russian clinical recommendations for the treatment of periodontitis, 45 minutes later the patients were prescribed some applications with 10% dental gel "Bishophytic" on the gum, in addition, the patients were recommended to use a rinser "Polymineral" for 6 months; the group of comparison included39 people who received standard treatment and gum applications with 10% "Bishophytic" dental gel; the control group) included 38 people who received only standard treatment. Results. Inclusion of mineral bishophytic complexes in treatment programs of patients with CGP contributes to significant reduction of inflammatory activity of periodontal tissues: 61.3% (p 0.01) had the improvement of hygienic and plaque indices in comparison with initial data; 54.6% (р 0,01) had the improvement after additional use of only gum applications with "Bishophytic" gel; the improvement was 52.2% (р 0.01) after basic drug therapy. Thus, the improvement of enzymatic processes was by 30.0% (p 0.01), 26.9% (p 0.01) and 7.8%; reduction of cytokine activity by 62.8% (p0.01), 61.1% (p 0.01) and 40%; the improvement of dental health by 84.0% (p 0.01), 80.7% (p 0.01) and 74.5% (p 0.01) at рkg-ог 0,05 and рkg-ог0,01. Conclusion. Inclusion of innovative mineral bishophytic complexes (gel "Bishophytic" and rinser "Polymineral") in treatment programs of patients with chronic generalized periodontitis contributes to optimization of therapeutic measures: clinical effectiveness in the main group was 93.0%; after usage of dental gel "Bishophytic" (group of comparison) it was 89.7% and after basic therapy (control group) 81.6%.

Introduction. Many key questions regarding the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and treatment of chronic gastritis remain open. So, despite the success of chronic gastritis pharmacotherapy, much attention is paid to non-drug methods of therapy, in particular, osteopathy. However, evidences of the osteopathic methods effectiveness for the chronic gastritis treatment, obtained by objective instrumental methods, are insufficiently presented in the modern literature.The goal of research — to study the results of osteopathic correction inclusion in the complex therapy of patients with chronic gastritis.Materials and methods. The study involved 50 patients with chronic gastritis, divided by simple randomization into a control group (25 people) and a main group (25 people). The participants in the control group received standard eradication therapy according to a three-component scheme. The participants of the main group additionally received osteopathic correction. In both groups, at the beginning and at the end of the study, there were performed fibroesophagogastroduodenoscopy with targeted biopsy to assess the gastric mucosa state, Helicobacter pylori identification, and intragastric pH-metry to assess gastric juice acidity.Results. According to the study results, a statistically significant (p<0,05) decrease in edema and hyperemia of gastric mucosa was found in the control and main groups. There was a statistically significant (p<0,001) decrease in gastric aciditywith osteopathic accompaniment, compared with unaccompanied drug treatment. In both groups, there was a statistically significant (p<0,05) decrease in the incidence of Helicobacter pylori carriage. Conclusion. Based on the obtained results, it can be assumed that an integrated approach using osteopathic correction in the treatment of chronic gastritis may be more effective than the standard course of treatment.

The objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment of women with various dysbiotic vaginal conditions with Limenda. Materials and methods. 58 women of reproductive age with BV and mixed nonspecific vaginitis participated in the study. The main group included 30 women, whose treatment was carried out with Limenda drug. The control group consisted of 28 women, whose treatment was performed according to the standard scheme using a combination of drugs. Results. Based on the results of control tests, complete elimination of pathogens occurred in 29 (96.67%) patients of the main group and in 26 (92.86%) patients of the control group. Five days after the treatment, all 30 (100%) women in the main group noted complete disappearance of symptoms on the control visit, and 2 (7.14%) of the control group complained of minor discomfort in the vagina, which required continued treatment. The conclusion. For the treatment of nonspecific vaginitis and bacterial vaginosis, especially chronic and often recurrent forms, it is better to use combined local remedies. The results of this study reliably testify to the high effectiveness of the combined drug Limenda compared with standard treatment regimens. Key words: vaginitis, bacterial vaginosis, vaginal biocenosis, conditional resistance, metronidazole, miconazole, Limenda.

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.

Introduction. Despite the constant improvement of treatment methods, chronic lower limb vein disease (CLLVD) remains an urgent and not completely solved problem. Therefore the search for new methods of this disease treatment is actual. The effectiveness of osteopathic treatment of patients with CLLVD has been shown in recent years. But despite this the use of osteopathic treatment in this area has not been widely used today because further research, generalization of results and creation of an evidence base are required.The goal of research — is to substantiate the possibility of osteopathic treatment for patients with CLLVD C1–C3 (according to the international classification system CEAP).Materials and methods. The study involved 20 patients suffering from C1–C3 CLLVD. The main group (10 people) receiving osteopathic treatment and the control group (10 people) receiving standard treatment were formed by simple randomization. At the beginning and the end of the study there were evaluated osteopathic status of study participants, changes in pain intensity by visual analogue scale (VAS), changes in quality of life according to the questionnaire CIVIQ (Chronic Venous Insufficiency Quality of Life Questionnaire), and changes in the diameter of the saphenous veins of the lower extremities.Results. Osteopathic examination of patients with CLLVD C1–C3 (according to the CEAP classification system) prior to the treatment allowed to establish the presence of somatic dysfunctions of the regional (lumbar and pelvic regions, structural and visceral), and local (diaphragm, sigmoid and caecum) level. The use of osteopathic correction in the main group compared with medical treatment in the control group leads to a statistically significant (p<0,05) decrease in the number of regional biomechanical dysfunctions of the lumbar and pelvic region, visceral components, and local somatic dysfunction of the diaphragm. The use of osteopathic correction in the main group leads to a statistically significant (p<0,01) more expressed reduction in pain intensity and improved quality of life compared to the control group receiving medication. Both osteopathic correction and standard medical treatment are accompanied by a significant (p<0,05) decrease in the diameter of the small saphenous vein of the affected limb, as well as the diameter of the large saphenous vein (only in the group that received osteopathic correction). There were no cases of adverse treatment outcome.Conclusion. The infl uence of the somatic dysfunctions osteopathic correction on the development of chronic lower limb venous disease (classes C1–C3 according to the CEAP classification system) was studied. It was shown that this infl uence is not inferior to the standard medical method of treatment. The patients′ life quality improves, the experienced pain level decreases, and the subcutaneous veins diameter decreases. In comparison with the control group using the drug method of treatment, there is a statistically significant more expressed decrease in the number of somatic dysfunctions. The obtained results suggest the possibility of osteopathic correction using for C1–C3 class CLLVD according to the international classification system CEAP.

Introduction. Psoriasis in women of reproductive age is one of the most pressing medical and social problems. The consequence of psoriasis disease is a significant decrease in the quality of life, disability of patients, difficulties in creating a family and deterioration of family relations, significant psychological discomfort. Objective of the study: to increase the effectiveness of treatment of women with psoriasis with menstrual irregularities by means of pathogenetically substantiated therapy based on the study of hormonal changes. Materials and research methods. The study included 130 women who were divided into three groups: the main group – 75 women with psoriasis with menstrual irregularities, who were randomized into 3 subgroups: 1a – 25 patients who will receive standard psoriasis therapy; 1b – 25 patients, in addition to the standard treatment of psoriasis, will receive gestagens for 3 months; 1c – 25 patients, in addition to the standard treatment of psoriasis, will receive a preparation of an dry extract of herb of creeping anchors for 3 months. The comparison group consisted of 25 women with psoriasis without hormonal disorders, comparable in age and social status with the study group. The control group – 30 apparently healthy women, comparable in age and social status with the study group. Research results. In patients of the main group who received standard psoriasis therapy (1a); who received progestogens for 3 months in addition to standard psoriasis treatment (1b) and, in addition to the standard treatment of psoriasis, who received the preparation of an dry extract of herb of anchors creeping for 3 months (1c), before the start of the treatment, the ratio of LH / FSH – luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) was below normal, which indicates a certain deficit in LH production relative to FSH values. In parallel, in these cohorts, the production of prolactin was increased, which suppresses the formation of FSH and LH in the pituitary gland. Changes in the production of gonadotropic hormones are a reaction to the existing deficiency or excess of sex hormones. In the main 1a, 1b and 1c in groups, estradiol values ​​were within the normal range with progesterone deficiency in the luteal phase. The testosterone value in all study groups did not deviate from the standard values. Conclusions. The obtained results of the survey indicate the need to increase the effectiveness of treatment of women with psoriasis with menstrual irregularities by involving measures aimed at correcting hormonal status in complex therapy.

Objective. Studying of impact of a human placenta hydrolysate on regeneration of intestinal anastomosis and prophylaxis of their sutures insufficiency. Materials and methods. Experimental investigations were conducted on two groups of rabbits. In every group a simulation model of an acute strangulation ileus was created. In a one day a relaparotomy, resection of necrotized intestinal segments with anastomosing in a “side-to-side” fashion were done in rabbits of both groups. After the operation the control group rabbits have obtained a standard treatment, while in the main group the rabbits together with a standard treatment have obtained a human placenta hydrolysate preparation «Laennec». On the days 3, 5, 7 and 15th the according intestinal segments were probed for morpho-histochemical investigations. Clinical investigations were conducted in 122 patients, consisting of resection of intestinal segments with formation of anastomoses. The control group consisted of 60 patients, and the main one – in 62. The data of the control group were studied retrospectively. In the main group the patients, together with a standard treatment, a human placenta hydrolysate in a form of preparation “Laennec” was applied for prophylaxis of insufficiency of the intestinal anastomoses sutures. Results. Basing on experimental results it may be stressed, that application of preparation «Laennec» strengthens regeneration and angiogenesis in zone of anastomosis, because in animals of the main group, comparing with a control one, high mitotic index, good angiogenesis and the motor-evacuation function integrity were noted. In clinical practice the anastomotic sutures insufficiency in the control group have occurred in 13.3% of observations, and in the main group – in 1.6% of observations. Conclusion. Application of the human placenta hydrolysate for prophylaxis of the sutures insufficiency in intestinal anastomoses is affordable due to successive clinical and experimental data obtained.
