Comparison of LigaSure and traditional methods of surgical treatment of III and IV degree hemorrhoids in patients with diabetes mellitusHemorrhoids are submucosal nodules in the anal canal that contain venules, arterioles, and smooth muscle fibers. Hemorrhoidal disease is registered in approximately 5 % of the total population, especially after 40 years. Treatment is indicated only in symptomatic cases. These symptoms include pain, itching, bleeding, thrombosis and hemorrhoidal prolapse.Aim — to compare the clinical results of he­­mor­rhoidectomy using the electrocoagulation he­mostatic device LigaSure and the traditional Milligan—Morgan method in patients with diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods. The study included 65 patients of both genders aged 18—78 years with stage 3 and 4 hemorrhoids, who underwent hemor­rhoidec­tomy: from them, 33 subject were operated with LigaSure (the main group), and 32 patients with traditional Milligan—Morgan method (control group). The following patients’ data were analyzedretrospec­tively:gender, age, pre- and postoperative hemoglobin and hematocritlevels, surgery duration, the presence of thrombosis, the number of removed and residual hemorrhoids, hospitalization duration, early and late postoperative complications, the need for narcotic analgesics, the observationalperiod, and the time to return to normal daily activity. Results. The mean surgery duration was 16 (6—45) min in the study group and 21 (7—43) min in the control group. Narcotic analgesics in the postoperative period were used in 17 (53.1 %) patients in the control group and were not used in the study group. The timerequired for return to the normal daily activity was 6 (2—15) days in the study group and 8 (2—30) days in the control group. Conclusions. It has been shown that LigaSure gave betterresults of hemorrhoidectomy versus traditional methods in patients with diabetes mellitus in terms of surgery duration, hospitalizationperiod, postoperative pain relief needs, risk of postoperative bleeding, and time required to return to normal daily activity.

Aim. Improvement of complex treatment results in patients with diabetic foot syndrome by introducing methods of gravitational surgery and α-lipoic acid. Methods. The results of treatment were analyzed for 558 patients with diabetic foot syndrome treated in Scientific Centre of Surgery named after M.A. Topchubashov (Baku, Azerbaijan) from 1988 to 2015. The age varied from 28 to 83 years. The patients included 416 men and 142 women. The control group included 90 patients who at the perioperative period underwent basic therapy including antibiotics, anticoagulants, antiaggregants, dextrans, angioprotectors, spasmolytics, corticosteroids, narcotic and non-narcotic analgesics. The study group included 468 patients, along with traditional therapy receiving efferent methods (plasmapheresis, ultraviolet blood irradiation, ozone therapy) and α-lipoic acid. 282 patients of the study group received outpatient treatment and 186 - complex inpatient surgical treatment. A comparative evaluation of the results was performed separately in three groups: angiopathy, neuropathy, angioneuropathy. The results were evaluated by clinical and instrumental examinations before and after treatment (6, 12, 60 months and more). Results. In the study group a satisfactory result of treatment was registered in 85.5% of patients, in the control group - in 62.2%, unsatisfactory in 14.5 and 37.8% of patients, respectively (p=0.046). Conclusion. The use of efferent methods and α-lipoic acid provided prompt elimination of numerous pathogenetic disorders observed in diabetes mellitus, decrease of amputation frequency and improvement of complex surgical treatment results in patients with diabetic foot syndrome.

Aim. The study was conducted to improve the results of the surgical treatment of acute calculous cholecystitis occurring against the background of diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods. In course of our study, we analyzed the treatment results of 687 patients with acute calculous cholecystitis. Depending on the presence of diabetes, all patients were divided into two groups. The main group with concomitant diabetes mellitus included 68 (9,9%) patients, whereas the control group without diabetes included 619 (90,1%) patients. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed on 636 (92,6%) patients, and open cholecystectomy was performed on 51 (7,4%) patients. Results. According to the histological study, the greatest number of destructive forms occurs in patients with concomitant diabetes, operated after 24 hours. The least postoperative complications occur in patients of both groups operated from 12 to 24 hours. However, the incidence of complications is 4-5 times higher in patients with diabetes mellitus. Postoperative complications in patients with acute calculous cholecystitis occurring on the background of sugar diabetes were observed after open cholecystectomy in 33,3% of cases and in 6,5% of cases after laparoscopic surgery.Conclusion In patients with acute cholecystitis and concomitant diabetes, surgical treatment should be performed on the first day after the preoperative preparation during the first 12 hours, aimed at compensating for diabetes and improving microcirculation. The preference should be given to laparoscopic cholecystectomy, which reduces the number of postoperative complications by 5 times and mortality by 4.5 times.

Aim. To evaluate the effectiveness of bioresonance therapy use in complex treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus type 2. Methods. The treatment scheme including bioresonance therapy is offered for patients with diabetes mellitus type 2. All 413 patients were assigned to 3 comparable groups: the study group included 198 patients, control group - 72 patients, placebo group - 143 patients. Duration of diabetes in the study group was 5.47±0.37 years, in control group - 4.03±0.46 years, in placebo group - 4.97±0.39 years. All patients were treated according to the traditional scheme of treatment of type 2 diabetes. The study group in addition to pharmacotherapy received bioresonance therapy. Control group received only drug treatment and placebo group received drug therapy and bioresonance simulation procedures. All patients were checked for glycated hemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose, blood glucose 2 hours after a meal, urine glucose, and body mass index on admission and 3 months after treatment. Results. Results of glycated hemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose, blood glucose 2 hours after a meal, urine glucose, and body mass index revealed that initially studied parameters in all three groups were high. After the bioresonance therapy in complex treatment of patients with diabetes type 2 in the study group all studied parameters were statistically significantly lower compared to control and placebo groups. Conclusion. The obtained results indicate the effectiveness of bioresonance therapy use in complex treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus type 2.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) due to its increasing prevalence and associated morbidity and mortality has become a serious public health problem. In DM, HDL may lose its beneficial features and become proatherogenic due to its altered biological activity thus increasing cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of the presence of diabetes mellitus type 2 and its duration on the distribution of HDL subfractions. Moreover, the effect of statin treatment on HDL subfraction share was analysed in this study. Methods: The study group consisted of 50 patients with newly diagnosed DM and 50 persons with DM for longer than 10 years while the control group consisted of 50 healthy volunteers. HDL subfractions were analysed with the use of Lipoprint. Results: We demonstrated progressive worsening of heart functioning and impairment of its structure in the course of diabetes mellitus. Moreover, we observed that HDL-6 subfraction and intermediate HDL fraction are lowest in the group with advanced DMt2 compared to the group with newly diagnosed DM and a healthy control group. Finally, the results of our study indicated the effect of statin treatment on HDL subfractions that seems not to be advantageous. Conclusion: It seems that in patients with diabetes mellitus compromised antiatherogenic properties of HDL, as a result of oxidative modification and glycation of the HDL protein as well as the transformation of the HDL proteome into a proinflammatory protein, increase cardiovascular risk.

Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a progressive metabolic disorder. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between antioxidant and oxidative stress markers in the saliva of patients with type 2 DM and a healthy control group. Methods: In this study, 20 patients with diabetes and 20 healthy individuals were evaluated. Salivary antioxidants markers consisted of total antioxidant capacity (TAC), uric acid (UA), peroxidase and catalase. Oxidative stress markers included total oxidant status (TOS), malondealdehyde (MDA) and total thiol (SH). Sialochemical analysis was performed with spectrophotometric assay. All the statistical analyses were conducted using STATA software. Results: TAC decreased significantly in patients with diabetes. Although salivary UA and peroxidase were lower in patients with diabetes compared to the control group, the difference was not significant. Salivary catalase in patients with diabetes was significantly lower than that in the control group. MDA and TOS exhibited significantly higher levels in type 2 DM. SH levels were slightly higher in DM. Conclusions: According to the results of the present study, there were some changes in the salivary levels of some antioxidants and oxidative stress markers in patients with type 2 DM and could be measured as an indicator of serum changes..

Abstract Background Telemonitoring and web-based interventions are increasingly used in primary-care practices in many countries for more effective management of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). A new approach in treating patients with diabetes mellitus in family practices, based on ICT use and nurse practitioners, has been introduced and evaluated in this study. Method Fifteen Slovene family practices enrolled 120 DM patients treated only with a diet regime and/or tablets into the study. 58 of them were included into the interventional group, and the other 62 DM patients into the control group, within one-year-long interventional, randomised controlled trial. Patients in the control group had conventional care for DM according to Slovenian professional guidelines, while the patients in the interventional group were using also the eDiabetes application. Patients were randomised through a balanced randomisation process. Results Significant reductions of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) values were found after 6 and 12 months among patients using this eDiabetes application (p<0.05). Among these patients, a significant correlation was also found between self-monitored blood pressure and the final HbA1c values. Diabetic patients’ involvement in web-based intervention had only transient impact on their functional health status. Conclusion This eDiabetes application was confirmed to be an innovative approach for better self-management of DM type 2 patients not using insulin. Both a significant reduction of HbA1c values and a significant correlation between the average self-measured blood pressure and the final HbA1c values in the interventional group were found. Nurse practitioners – as diabetes care coordinators – could contribute to better adherence in diabetes e-care.

Purpose – to improve the results of surgical treatment of patients with intra-abdominal infiltrates and abscesses through the introduction of the latest imaging methods and surgical technologies. Materials and methods. In the clinic of the Department of Surgical Diseases No 1, on the basis of the Surgery Center of the Kyiv City Clinical Hospital No. 1 from 2006 to 2019 218 patients with primary and secondary intra-abdominal infiltrates, abscesses and fluid formations were treated. The patients’ age ranged from 16 to 85 years. There were 107 (49.08%) male patients, 111 (50.92%) female patients. Depending on the time of hospitalization (by years), the patients were divided into two groups: the control group (CG) (2006–2012) 117 (53.67%) patients and the study group (SG) (2013–2019) 101 (46.33%) patients. The SG used the latest imaging technologies and improved methods of surgical treatment. Results. The patients were divided into two groups: primary in 191 (87.61%) and secondary postoperative infiltrates and abscesses in 27 (12.39%). The causes of primary infiltrates and abscesses were: complicated forms of appendicitis in 74 (33.94%), perforated stomach and duodenal ulcer in 48 (22.02%), complicated forms of cholecystitis in 69 (31.65%). Postoperative infiltrates and abscesses were observed in 27 (12.39%) patients who underwent urgent surgery: adgeolysis of adhesive ileus in 14 (6.42%) and complicated hernias of various localization in 13 (5.97%). Postoperative complications were diagnosed in 43 (19.72%) patients, of whom 34 (15.59%) from the surgical wound and 29 (15.18%) of the abdominal cavity, who required relaparotomy or laparoscopy, with destructive appendicitis in 10 (13.51%), perforated gastric ulcer and 12 duodenal ulcer in 6 (12.5%), destructive cholecystitis in 9 (13.04%), adhesive intestinal obstruction in 13 (19.12%) and with strangulated and complicated hernias in 14 (17.28%) of the examined patients. During relaparotomy, incompetence of the intestinal wall and intestinal sutures was established in 11 out of 32 patients, an ileostomy was imposed in 7, and cecostomy in 1 patient. Actually, in the control group, 8 (6.84%) patients died on the background of ongoing peritonitis, thrombosis of mesenteric vessels and multiple organ failure and concomitant ailments and in the study group 4 (3.96%) patients died. Conclusions. Surgical treatment is individualized depending on the disease, so with destructive appendicitis from 74 (38.74%) laparotomic in 42 (21.99%), laparoscopic in 32 (16.75%), and in 12 (6.28%) with conversion; perforated gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer in 48 (25.13%) open laparotomy; with cholecystitis of 69 (36.13%) patients, 48 (25.13%) had laparotomy and 21 (11.00%) had laparoscopic examination. The use of the latest imaging and treatment technologies: Doppler ultrasonography, hydrojet scalpel and laparoscopy in 64 (33.51%), allowed to have better near and long-term results and to reduce postoperative mortality from 6.84% to 3.96%, with an average of 5.5%. The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki declaration. The study protocol was approved by the Local Ethics Committee of these Institutes. The informed consent of the patient was obtained for conducting the studies. The authors declare no conflicts of interests. Key words: destructive appendicitis, cholecystitis, perforated gastric ulcer and 12-duodenal ulcer, adhesive leakage, strangulated hernias, diagnosis and treatment.
