The chronic recurrent abdominal syndrome (CRAS) in the right lower fossa in children is believed not to be independent nosological unit and is diagnosed as an exception. We carried out comparative studies of the clinical picture, results of morphological and immunohistochemical studies of remote appendicitis in 55 CRAS children and 35 children with acute destructive appendicitis. The low prognostic significance of appendicular scales for the determination of indications to the surgical treatment of CRAS was established. Morphological examination in most cases revealed signs of chronic inflammation with fibrosis of the mucosa and submucosa of the appendix in CRAS children. Immunohistochemical studies revealed the pronounced expression of protein VEGF, MMP-9 and VCAM-1 predominantly in the submucosal and the muscular layer, moderate expression for Collagen-III-alpha-1. The low number of positively stained cells for the VIP protein located both in the mucosa and in the submucosa. The number of MMP-9-positive cells was the largest, there was seen a moderate amount of VEGF, VIP and Collagen-III-alpha-1-positive cells. The disappearance of the abdominal syndrome after appendectomy was noted in 6% of CRAS patients. Recurrence of pain was observed in girls of pubertal age with the irregular menstrual cycle. The established changes in remote appendicitis, other than acute inflammation, make it possible to consider reasonable appendectomy as a way of treating CRAS in children.

Aim: To describe the case of rare benign lymphoproliferative disorder — pulmonary nodular lymphoid hyperplasia in the patient with previous pulmonary tuberculosis. Materials and Methods: In the case of pulmonary nodular lymphoid hyperplasia clinical, laboratory, instrumental and morphological examination was performed. Results: 44-year-old woman in 7 years after successfully treated infiltrative drug-susceptible tuberculosis of the right lung, was hospitalized with a suspected tumor of the left lung root. The patient underwent left-sided pneumonectomy with lymph nodes dissection. The results of histopathological and immunohistochemical studies evidenced on nodular lymphoid hyperplasia of the left lung. Conclusion: Pulmonary nodular lymphoid hyperplasia is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder of the lung with favorable prognosis. For the purpose of differential diagnosis, it is necessary to apply immunohistochemistry.

Relevance of research: аdrenalectomy remains the only method of potentially radical treatment of adrenocortical carcinoma (AСС), and the complete resection is considered one of the leading factors in the prognosis of disease. The question of the possibility and feasibility of using video- endoscopic technologies in the treatment of patients with ACC is still being discussed. Objective: the purpose of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness of laparoscopic adrenalectomy in the treatment of ACC patients. Material and methods: the study is based on the analysis of the results of diagnostics and surgical treatment of 12 patients who underwent laparoscopic adrenalectomy and verified ACC during histological and immunohistochemical studies. Results: stage I were verified (according to the ENSAT) in 4 cases, in 4 - II stage, and in 4 - III stage. The median of tumor size was 4.9 cm. Intraoperative and postoperative complications did not occur. In all cases, the R0-resection was confirmed by morphological examination. The median patient follow-up was 71 months (1; 141), during this period 11 patients were alive, 1 patient, who had surgery in stage III died of disease progression (distant metastases) 49 months after surgery. During the follow-up period tumor recurrence did not occur. Overall 5-year survival was 75% (95% CI; 30-95%). Conclusion: despite the small number of patients included in this study, satisfactory immediate results (absence of complications, R0-resection) and long-term results allow us to consider video- endoscopic surgery as an effective treatment for patients with ACC.

A 12-year-old male was referred for surgery with the diagnosis of right atrial aneurysm. Resection of the right atrial aneurysm was performed under total cardiopulmonary bypass. Besides a very thin muscular layer, histopathological evaluation of the aneurysm specimen revealed extensive eosinophilic infiltration at the epicardial side which, from place to place showed penetrations into the muscular layer. The screening tests performed for determination of the etiology of eosinophilia were indeterminate supporting the diagnosis of idiopathic right atrial aneurysm. In conclusion, although the reason for the eosinophilia could not be detected, it may have a part in the development of right atrial aneurysm that merits further investigation.

SummaryRecently, the most significant studies in the field of angiogenesis are related to trials concerning the evaluation of the prognostic significance of endothelial markers. By using an estimation of the expression of endothelial cell markers, immunohistochemical studies can assess for the continuity of the vascular intima, as well as allow for the distinction of early, late and mature forms of endothelial cells. The determination of the endothelial cell phenotype using markers such as CD34, CD31, CD133, e-NOS and von Willebrand factor may provide a valuable tool for the monitoring of both normal physiology as well as neoplastic diseases.

This article presents the experience of surgical treatment of rare pathology of the upper limb – pseudoarthrosis of the middle third of the diaphysis of the radius, defect pseudoarthrosis of the upper and middle third of the ulnar diaphysis. The definition and compilation of an accurate model and treatment tactics are critical to restoring the anatomy and function of the injured upper limb. The rarity of this case was the size of the ulna defect, which was up to 4.0 cm, the scarring and cicatricial changes in the soft tissues and muscles of the right forearm, due to the severity of the injury and the multitude of surgical interventions on the right forearm. The chosen treatment tactics consisted of several successive stages: resection of the zone of false joint of the right radial bone, combined transosseous osteosynthesis of the right radius bone, resection of the false elbow joint of the right ulna with replacement of the defect with autograft from the lower third of the fibula, combined strained osteosynthesis and transosseous osteosynthesis by external fixation apparatus with rod configuration of the right ulna. The results of surgical treatment of false joints depend on the determination of the correct indications for a certain type of surgical intervention and the competent implementation of the planned treatment plan. The chosen treatment tactics allowed us to successfully restore the anatomy and function of the damaged segment, thus rehabilitating the patient.

Choice of profession is a social phenomenon that every person has to face in life. Numerous studies convince us that not only the well-being of a person depends on the chosen work, but also his attitude to himself and life in general, therefore, the right and timely professional choice is very important. Research about factors of career self-determination of students of higher education institutions in Ukraine shows that self-determination is an important factor in the socialization of young person, and the factors that determine students' career choices become an actual problem of nowadays. The present study involved full-time and part-time students of Institute of Philology and Mass Communications of Open International University of Human Development "Ukraine" in order to examine the factors of career self-determination of students of higher education institutions (N=189). Diagnostic factors of career self-determination of students studying in the third and fourth year were carried out using the author's questionnaire. Processing of obtained data was carried out using the Excel 2010 program; factorial and comparative analysis were applied. Results of the study showed that initial stage of career self-determination falls down on the third and fourth studying year at the university, when an image of future career and career orientations begin to form. At the same time, the content of career self-determination in this period is contradictory and uncertain, therefore, the implementation of pedagogical support of this process among students is effective.

ABSTRAKPutusan Nomor 2-3/PUU-V/2007 selain menjadi dasar konstitusionalitas pidana mati, juga memberikan jalan tengah (moderasi) terhadap perdebatan antara kelompok yang ingin mempertahankan (retensionis) dan yang ingin menghapus (abolisionis) pidana mati. Permasalahan dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana kebijakan moderasi pidana mati dalam putusan a quo dikaitkan dengan teori pemidanaan dan hak asasi manusia dan bagaimana kebijakan moderasi pidana mati dalam RKUHP tahun 2015 dikaitkan dengan putusan a quo. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian doktrinal, dengan menggunakan bahan hukum primer dan sekunder, berupa peraturan perundang-undangan, literatur, dan hasil-hasil penelitian yang relevan dengan objek penelitian. Penelitian menyimpulkan, pertama, putusan a quo yang memuat kebijakan moderasi pidana mati telah sesuai dengan teori pemidanaan khususnya teori integratif dan teori hak asasi manusia di Indonesia di mana hak hidup tetap dibatasi oleh kewajiban asasi yang diatur dengan undang-undang. Kedua, model kebijakan moderasi pidana mati dalam RKUHP tahun 2015 beberapa di antaranya telah mengakomodasi amanat putusan a quo, seperti penentuan pidana mati di luar pidana pokok, penundaan pidana mati, kemungkinan pengubahan pidana mati menjadi pidana seumur hidup atau penjara paling lama 20 tahun. Selain itu masih menimbulkan persoalan berkaitan dengan lembaga yang memberikan pengubahan pidana mati, persoalan grasi, lamanya penundaan pelaksanaan pidana mati, dan jenis pidana apa saja yang dapat diancamkan pidana mati.Kata kunci: kebijakan, KUHP, moderasi, pidana mati. ABSTRACTConstitutional Court’s Decision Number 2-3/PUU-V/2007, in addition to being the basis of the constitutionality of capital punishment, also provides a moderate way of arguing between retentionist groups and those wishing to abolish the death penalty (abolitionist). The problem in this research is how the moderation policy of capital punishment in aquo decision is associated with the theory of punishment and human rights and how the moderation policy of capital punishment in the draft Criminal Code of 2015 (RKUHP) is related with the a quo decision. This study is doctrinal, using primary and secondary legal materials, in the form of legislation, literature and research results that are relevant to the object of analysis. This study concludes, firstly, the aquo decision containing the moderation policy of capital punishment has been in accordance with the theory of punishment, specificallyy the integrative theory and the theory of human rights in Indonesia, in which the right to life remains limited by the fundamental obligations set forth in the law. Secondly, some of the modes of moderation model of capital punishment in RKUHP of 2015 have accommodated the mandate of aquo decision, such as the determination of capital punishment outside the main punishment, postponement of capital punishment, the possibility of converting capital punishment to life imprisonment or imprisonment of 20 years. In addition, it still raises issues regarding the institutions that provide for conversion of capital punishment, pardon matters, length of delay in the execution of capital punishment, and any types of crime punishable by capital punishment. Keywords: policy, criminal code, moderation, capital punishment.

Introduction. Proper nutrition is crucial for child and adolescent athletes to maintain growth and development and to achieveoptimal results in sports. It is very important to balance the energy expenditure with the energy intake in order to prevent the energy deficit or excess.Materials and methods. Subjects involved in two different sports participated in the study: 13 gymnasts (age 13.8 ± 4.1 years, height 153.4 ± 11.3 cm, weight 47.1 ± 10.5 kg) and 15 basketball players (age 15.5 ± 1.1 years, height 176.7 ± 7.9 cm, weight 65.2 ± 10.7 kg). Determination of total energy expenditure was made by prediction equations. The subjects maintained a food records for 5 consecutive days, which were processed in the ASA24 system of the NCI. Results and discussion. Energy intake in both groups is sufficient to meet the daily needs, development of young athletes andprovide the energy needed in training. The intake of three minerals (calcium, magnesium and potassium) and three vitamins (D, E and A) was lower than recommended values in both groups.Conclusion. As a result of the busy schedule of adolescent athletes, their main meals are out of home, and the proportion of highly processed foods containing small amounts of important vitamins and minerals is high. The main recommendations include dairy products, fruits, vegetables and whole grains. The idea behind the changes is to give young athletes the right diet and the right eating habits.
