Introduction. Primary hyperparathyroidism is an endocrine disease resulting from a primary pathology of the parathyroid gland, characterized by increased secretion of parathyroid hormone and increased blood calcium levels. Among the endocrine diseases, primary hyperparathyroidism is the third most common after diabetes mellitus and thyroid disease. In Russia, according to epidemiological studies, primary hyperparathyroidism is found in 1% of the population, women suffer 2-3 times more often than men do, and the average age of diagnosis is 54-59 years. In the absence of a timely diagnosis, primary hyperparathyroidism causes systemic damage to internal organs: renal impairment, nephrolithiasis, esophageal affection, cardiovascular and nervous system involvement, and it leads to a violation of bone tissue integrity. The aim is to demonstrate a clinical case of a patient with primary hyperparathyroidism and to analyze the stages of diagnosis of the disease and treatment. Material and methods. The review of medical literature on the problem of diagnostics and treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism was performed, as well as an analysis of the patient’s medical documentation with this pathology. Results and discussion. A variant of complicated course of primary hyperparathyroidism of bone and visceral form is considered. About 15 years passed from the moment of appearance of the first symptoms of the disease to the development of complications of renal and bone system. Despite the slow development of the disease and availability of screening methods, hyperparathyroidism was detected at the stage of complications. This article provides a detailed analysis of the primary hyperparathyroidism history, as well as analyzes the possibilities of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of this pathology. The efficacy of the therapy has been assessed, and ways of correction have been outlined. The analysis of the reasons that made it difficult to diagnose this pathology at an early stage, before the development of serious complications of internal organs, has been carried out. Conclusions: It can be assumed that the presented clinical case will increase the awareness of physicians, especially therapists, about the primary manifestations of this pathology and the peculiarities of its detection and routing the patient, which will allow avoiding many diagnostic errors.

Background. Primary hyperparathyroidism is an endocrine disease resulting from a primary pathology of the parathyroid gland, characterized by increased secretion of parathyroid hormone and increased blood calcium levels. Among the endocrine diseases, primary hyperparathyroidism is the third most common after diabetes mellitus and thyroid disease. Without timely diagnosis, primary hyperparathyroidism causes systemic damage to internal organs: renal impairment, nephrolithiasis, esophageal affection, cardiovascular and nervous system and affects bones. The aim of the work was to present a clinical case of a patient with primary hyperparathyroidism and to analyze the stages of its diagnosis and treatment. Material and methods. We reviewed the relevant literature and analyzed the patient’s medical records. Results and Discussion. The patient had a complicated course of primary hyperparathyroidism of bone and visceral form. Despite of the slow progression and availability of screening methods, hyperparathyroidism was detected at the stage of complications. The efficacy of the therapy has been assessed. The underlying reasons that made it difficult to diagnose PHPT at an early stage, before the development of serious complications of internal organs were investigated. Conclusions: It can be assumed that our clinical case will increase the awareness of physicians, especially therapists, about the primary manifestations of this pathology and the challenges of its detecting and avoiding diagnostic errors.

Dirofilariasis is the most common transmissible zoonotic nematodosis in Europe, whose clinical manifestations are caused by the migration of immature helminths through human tissues or internal organs. Clinically, it is characterized by slow development and a long-term course, and morphologically — by chronic granulomatous inflammation, often with microabscess.The work presents the description of a clinical case of dirofilariasis of the pleura, the diagnosis of which was performed only at the stage of the histological examination of the surgical material.

Primary hyperparathyroidism (PGPT) is an endocrine disease characterized by excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) in upper — normal or elevated blood calcium levels due to primary parathyroid gland pathology (osch). Primary hyperparathyrosis, depending on the clinical manifestations, can occur in the normocalcemic, mild and manifest form. This article presents a clinical case of the development of the manifest form by the type of visceral disorders. Which appeared in the form of pathology of the gastrointestinal tract. This form of the disease is an indication for surgical treatment and further correction of calcium-phosphorus metabolism.

: Despite advances in the development of cytotoxic and targeted therapies, pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAC) remains a significant cause of cancer mortality worldwide. It is also difficult to detect it at an early stage due to numbers of factors. Most of the patients are present with locally advanced or metastatic disease, which precludes curative resection. In the absence of effective screening methods, considerable efforts have been made to identify better systemic treatments during the past decade. This review describes the recent advances in molecular mechanisms involved in pancreatic cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis. Additionally, the importance of deregulated cellular signalling pathways and various cellular proteins as potential targets for developing novel therapeutic strategies against incurable forms of pancreatic cancer is reported. The emphasis is on the critical functions associated with growth factors and their receptors viz. c-MET/HGF, CTHRC1, TGF-β, JAK-STAT, cyclooxygenase pathway, WNT, CCK, MAPK-RAS-RAF, PI3K-AKT, Notch, src, IGF-1R, CDK2NA and chromatin regulation for the sustained growth, survival, and metastasis of pancreatic cancer cells. It also includes various therapeutic strategies viz. immunotherapy, surgical therapy, radiation therapy and chemotherapy.

Knowledge about clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis has exploded in the last two decades, especially after the discovery of anti-MDA5 Ab. The disease's likely genesis and pathophysiological processes have been studied in a number of scientific and epidemiological studies. Thanks to a slew of new large-scale cohort studies, the clinical characteristics of MDA5+ DM may be better identified. In addition, several prognostic indicators have been discovered, such as respiratory physiology measures and serum biomarkers, which have helped to enhance risk categorization in clinical practice and restrict the design of future clinical studies. Quantitative evaluation of pulmonary HRCT data may be the trend of imaging testing in MDA5+ DM-ILD. The current standard of treatment for MDA5+ DM-ILD is "triple treatment" with JAK inhibitors, which has been proven in recent trials to significantly improve the survival of early-stage patients. Total mortality in this incurable disease, however, is still shockingly high, especially in advanced-stage patients. There is still a pressing need for a more effective and well-evidenced treatment approach for MDA5+ DM-ILD.

Background. COVID-19 infection keeps changing our understanding of its clinical course when associated with various somatic diseases. Objective. To present a clinical case of a patient with non-specific ulcerative colitis (NUC) and COVID-19 infection. Material and methods: medical documentation, general clinical, laboratory and instrumental data as well as histological examination of bioptates stained with hematoxylin and eosin that were obtained during colonoscopy. Results. The article presents a case history of a patient with manifestations of severe total NUC developed in association with the subclinical form of COVID-19 infection, the former being the cause of death in concomitant pathology. Conclusions. This clinical case describes a variant of an unfavorable outcome of NUC, one of the reasons for the manifestation of which was the atypical form of COVID-19 infection, which became a trigger for an autoimmune inflammatory process in the intestine. The accumulation of new knowledge about the features of the pathogenesis and manifestations of both pathologies will make it possible to improve the effectiveness of treatment and predict the course and outcomes of combined pathology.
