Relevance. Cold injury is defined as a complex of pathophysiological and pathomorphological changes arising as a result of local or general cooling of the human body. Endothelial dysfunction provokes a powerful cascade of cellular interactions with expressed excretory activity, which ultimately leads to a pronounced remodeling of microcirculation and a protracted process of inflammation in the focus of alterations. Aim of the study. To establish the dynamics of the level of myeloperoxidase and calprotectin in the serum of patients with local cold injury. Materials and methods. The study included 80 patients with III–IV degree lesions in the late reactive period and the period of granulation and epithelialization. The average age of patients was 38 ± 8 years. The myeloperoxidase level was measured on the 5th and 30th days from the moment of cryopreservation using multiplex analysis of blood serum. Results. The level of myeloperoxidase and serum calprotectin increases. In late reactive period (day 5), MPO level in patients with frostbite is 7.25 times higher in comparison with control values, in the period of granulation and epithelialization (day 30), it remains elevated, but only 3.63 times higher than in the control group. In the late reactive period, the level of calprotectin in the blood serum of patients with local cold injury was 4.6 times higher in comparison with control values, and on the 30th day of cryopreservation, the value of calprotectin was 4.5 times higher than in the control group. Changes in the level of myeloperoxidase and serum calprotectin reflect the flow of destructive and reparative mechanisms in tissues during local cold trauma and can be used in predicting an unfavorable prolonged course of the wound process.

The relevance of cold injury is due to its high specific weight in the structure of injuries, complexities of complex therapy, and unsatisfactory results of treatment. It is known that in the pathogenesis of local cold injury, the leading role belongs to endothelial dysfunction, which secretes a huge amount of biologically active substances, including matrix metalloproteinases.Aim: to determine the dynamics of the content of matrix metalloproteinases of the second subfamily (MMP-2, MMP-9) in the serum of patients with local cold injury.Materials and methods. The study included 80 patients (60 men, 20 women) with frostbite of the III–IV degree of the foot to the level of the lower third of the leg in the late reactive period and the period of granulation and epithelization.Results. In the late reactive period in patients with cryopreservation, the level of MMP-2 was 3.4 times higher relative to the control (p = 0.011), on day 30 MMP-2 values did not differ from the control parameters (p = 0.103). The level of collagenase B (MMP-9) in patients with local cold injury on day 5 was 14.5 times higher than the control parameters (p = 0.002), on day 30 – 12.5 times higher compared to the control group (p = 0.000094).Conclusion. During the analysis of the data obtained, we can think about the dual nature of collagenases during the processes of inflammation. In a situation of distress, collagenases prevent endothelial dysfunction by eliminating the cellular structures of the endothelium to ensure adequate metabolism in tissues. Their importance as markers of failure of adequate flow of reparative processes is not excluded.

Актуальность. В структуре общего травматизма местная холодовая травма имеет большой удельный вес. Выявление новых маркеров криоповреждения способствует более ранней диагностике глубины поражений тканей при обморожении, созданию новых подходов к хирургическому лечению и ускоренной реабилитации пострадавших. Цель исследования - изучение в динамике содержания оксида азота, асимметричного диметиларгинина и циркулирующих эндотелиальных клеток в сыворотке крови у пациентов с местной холодовой травмой. Методика. В исследование включено 80 пациентов с обморожениями нижних конечностей III-IV степени в позднем реактивном периоде и периоде гранулирования и эпителизации. Использован мультиплексный анализ сыворотки крови набором реагентов фирмы Biomedical (США), методом Hladovec (1978) и методом П.П. Голикова (2004) соответвенно. Результаты. У пациентов с криотравмой во всех исследуемых группах установлено снижение уровня оксида азота относительно контроля. У пострадавших с местной холодовой травмой на 5-е сут отмечено значительное снижение в крови уровня асимметричного диметиларгинина. на 30-е сут с момента криоповреждения уровень асимметричного диметиларгинина не отличался от показателей контрольной группы. При обморожении дистальных сегментов стоп концентрация асимметричного диметиларгинина в крови не менялась относительно контроля. У пациентов с тяжелыми обморожениями нижних конечностей уровень асимметричного диметиларгинина в крови снижался в 3,6 раза. У пациентов с местной холодовой травмой на 5-е сут установлено увеличение в крови уровня циркулирующих эндотелиальных клеток в 5,2 раза, на 30-е сут с момента криоповреждения уровень циркулирующих эндотелиальных клеток снижался, но, по-прежнему, превышал контрольные значения. У пострадавших с обморожением дистальных сегментов стоп содержание в крови циркулирующих эндотелиальных клеток увеличилось в 2,7 раза, с поражением проксимальных сегментов нижних конечностей - в 6,7 раза относительно здоровых добровольцев. У пациентов с наиболее тяжелыми обморожениями нижних конечностей уровень циркулирующих эндотелиальных клеток в крови повышался в 9 раз. The relevance of local cold injury remains high. In the structure of general injury prevalence, proportion of freeze burns is great. Identification of new markers of cold injury will help earlier determination of tissue lesion depth, development of new approaches in the surgical treatment of deep freeze burns of extremities, and promote rehabilitation of patients. The aim of this study was to elucidate the dynamics of the serum content of nitric oxide (NO), asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), and circulating endothelial cells (CEC) in patients with local cold injury. Methods. The study included 80 patients with III-IV degree frostbite of the lower extremities in the late reactive period and the period of granulation and epithelization. Multiplex analyses of blood serum were performed with Biomedical (USA) reagent kits, according to methods by Hladovec (1978) and Golikov (2004). Results. In all groups of patients with frostbite, NO level was decreased compared to the control. Patients with local cold trauma displayed significant decreases in blood levels of ADMA on day 5; on day 30 after the cold trauma, the ADMA level did not differ from the control group. In patients with frostbite of the distal foot segments, the blood concentration of ADMA did not change from the control level. In patients with the most severe frostbite of the lower extremities, serum ADMA decreased 3.6 times. Patients with local cold trauma had a 5.2-fold increase in the blood level of CEC on day 5. On day 30 after the freeze burn, the amount of CEC was decreased but still remained above the control value. In patients with frostbite of the distal foot segments, the content of CEC increased 2.7 times compared to the control. In patients with lesions of more proximal segments of the lower extremities, the CEC index was increased 6.7 times compared to healthy volunteers. In patients with the most severe frostbite of the lower extremities, the blood content of CEC was 9 times increased.

The authors studied the state of lipid peroxidation systems and antioxidant protection in of the extremities in different periods. It was revealed that in patients with frostbite of the radical oxidation and the level of antioxidant protection depended on periods of cold 20 people were in the control group, 30 patients with local cold trauma in the early reactive late reactive period (LRP) there were 40 people, and in the granulation and epithelization period (GEP) there were 15 people. There was a persistent increase in the concentration of the early, late reactive periods and the period of granulation and epithelization. In red blood cells, the content of intermediate intermediates of free radical lipid oxidation increases. The catalase activity in erythrocytes of victims with frostbite of the extremities decreases, but does not change in the blood serum. The dynamics of the serum in patients at different times of local cold injury in comparison with healthy people is not observed.

The article studies the correlation of the content of peripheral blood and red bone marrow eosinophils with the level of secretion of fibroblast growth factor (FGF-21), insulin-like factor (IGF-1) and vasculoendothelial growth factor (VEGF-C) in blood serum during the formation of dermal collagen after local cold damage. Animals of the experimental group after the onset of narcotic sleep on the depilated skin of the back were simulated contact frostbite of the 3rd degree. On the 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st day of the experiment, the concentrations of growth factors, % dermal collagen content, and also the content of eosinophils in peripheral blood and red bone marrow were determined in the blood serum. The research results showed that the development of eosinopenia after a local cold injury occurs due to the sequestration of eosinophils in the affected area. The presence of reactive changes after a local cold injury not only in peripheral blood, but also in the red bone marrow may indicate the participation of eosinophils in tissue repair processes after a local cold injury.

 Aim. The study of the prevalence and clinical peculiarities of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis in patients with different pathogenic forms of bronchial asthma (BA) taking into account ethnicity of a patient. Subjects and Methods. The research covered 239 subjects – both the Europeoids and the Mongoloids in the city of Krasnoyarsk and the town of Kyzyl, all of them being BA patients of different stages, including acute stage and practically healthy. We had determined antigens Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Mycoplasma hominis, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Chlamydophila psittaci and Chlamydia trachomatis in smears of mucosa of pharynx and antibodies to these antigens in peripheral blood serum. Results.  We found high frequency of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis in the inhabitants of Eastern Siberia, BA patients with different pathogenic forms as compared to control group. We had determined ethnic peculiarities of specific immune response: IgM to М. pneumoniae was revealed in the Europoids more frequently than in the Mongoloids, but IgM to С. pneumoniae and to C. trachomatis, C. trachomatis antigens had been revealed more often in the Mongoloids than in the Europoids. We accepted as clinical equivalents of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis diagnostics the following signs: temperature around 37C (subfebrile temperature), non-intensive but stable coughing with scanty mucous and muco-purulent sputum, dyspnea of mixed character. Conclusions. Mycoplasma and Chlamydia are meaningful etiologic factors of bronchial asthma. We have found the peculiarities of immune response depending on ethnicity of a patient (ethnic belonging). Clinical markers of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis should be taken into account in bronchial asthma in order to provide diagnostics timely as well as eradication of infection agents. Because of insufficient knowledge of problem of bronchial asthma related to contamination with Мycoplasma and Chlamydia we put the goal to study the frequency of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis occurrence in bronchial asthma patients and determine the characteristics clinical course of diseases. We defined antigens Мycoplasma pneumoniae, Мycoplasma hominis, Chlamydophila pneumoniaе, Chlamydophila psittaci, Chlamydia trachomatis in smears of oropharynx mucosa and antibodies to them in blood serum.

To evaluate possibilities of aspirin-induced gastroduodenopathy treatment in the patients with chronic ischemic heart disease by means of applying the internal endogenous prostaglandins stimulant.  Material and methods. 340 patients suffering from chronic coronary heart disease and receiving a long-term acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) therapy were examined on the base of the cardiovascular care unit of The Nizhny Novgorod Regional Clinical Hospital named after N.A. Semaschko. There were evaluated frequency, nature and severity of the aspirin-induced gastroduodenopathy. The patients with coronary heart disease and aspirin-induced gastroduodenopathy were divided in two groups. In the first group of patients there was applied rebamipide therapy (in a single daily dose 300 mg) in combination with the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) — pantoprazole. In the second group there was applied only pantoprazole therapy. For the purpose of specification of AIG pathogenetic mechanisms development, all the examined chronic coronary heart disease cases were tested on the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) level in blood serum before the therapy beginning and after the treatment. The control group was formed of chronic coronary heart disease patients showing no AIG evidence. Statistical processing of the received data was fulfilled with the program «Statistika 10.0». Results. AIG was registered in 15% out of 340 chronic coronary heart disease patients. According to the endoscopic examination erosive disease of the body and antrum prevailed among the patients. The PGE2 level in the blood serum was significantly lower (р = 0,00087) in these patients in comparison with the control group. In association with PPI and rebamipide mixed therapy, esophagogastroduodenoscopy results showed no pathological findings in gastrointestinal mucosa and statistically significant (р = 0,00067) blood serum PGE2 level growing in all the treated patients. As a result of exclusive PPI therapy there was marked positive dynamics in endoscopic view in 19 out of 25 patients and a tendency to normalization of PGE2 level in the blood serum. However, PGE2 level growing was insignificant. Conclusion. The presented research demonstrates the possibility of AIG treatment with the use of internal endogenous prostaglandins stimulant — rebamipide in complex with proton pump inhibitor PPI therapy.

Introduction. The overwhelming number of publications contains only data on the content of individual antioxidants, but not on the overall antioxidant activity of the blood in patients with vibration disease.The aim of the study was to determine the total antioxidant activity of blood serum in patients with vibration disease.Materials and methods. Th e main group consisted of 30 people diagnosed with “Vibration disease” of 1 degree (n=21) and 2 degrees (n=9). Th e control group consisted of 30 clinically healthy men, comparable in age with the main group (p=0.66). Th e total activity of antioxidant systems of blood plasma was evaluated photometrically using the test system “Total antioxidant status-Novo” (“Vector-best”, Russia).Results. The indicator of the total antioxidant status (TAS) was 1,038±0.232 mmol/l in the examined main group, against 1,456±0.225 mmol/l in the examined control group (p<0.000001). Th e coefficient of variation (CV) in patients with vibration disease was 22.35%, 1.45 times higher than in the control group (15.45%). In the main group there was a positive correlation between age and TAS (R=0.525), in the control group there was no such relationship (R=0.095). Th e degree of decrease depended on the severity of vibration disease.Conclusions. 1. The development of vibration disease is accompanied by a decrease in the antioxidant status of blood serum. 2. Th e degree of decrease in the antioxidant status of blood serum correlates with the severity of vibration disease. 3. Reduction of TAS can serve as a pathogenetic justification of the need to include drugs and/or biologically active additives with antioxidant activity in therapy


The article is devoted to the solution of an urgent problem- influence of different lighting modes on the dairy productivity of cows. 2 groups of cows with 20 heads each were formed. In control group, light in the cowshed was 50-75 Lux for a light period of 7.5 h in January to 16.5 h in June, and in experimental group - 150-200 Lux and 16 h, respectively. It was found that the intensity and duration of illumination affects physiological state, reproductive ability and milk productivity of cows. In the experimental group of cows, compared with the control group, hemoglobin content in blood increased by 4.6% (P < 0.01), red blood cells - by 20.6% (P < 0.05), total protein - by 11.2% (P < 0.001), glucose - by 39.1% (P < 0.05). There was a tendency to increase the total calcium and inorganic phosphorus in blood serum of cows of the experimental group. The level of alkaline phosphatase in blood serum of cows in the control group was 71.5% (P < 0.01) higher than that of cows in the experimental group. Milk yield per 1 cow in the experimental cowshed was 433 kg more than in the control. The cost of 1 kg of milk in the experimental group was 0.94 rubles lower, and the profitability of milk production and sales is 9.42% higher than in the control group. To increase the milk productivity of cows, it is recommended to increase light level in barns for tethered keeping to 150-200 Lux, with the duration of lighting in the winter and transition periods of year up to 16 hours per day.
