This communication presents the experience of using mobile pressure chambers in patients with the confi rmed novel coronavirus infection in hospital settings. The obtained preliminary results indicate positive antihypoxic effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) applied in the form of increased saturation. After a session of HBO, patients demonstrated an increase in the oxygen saturation of capillary blood hemoglobin at the average level of 3.71 points. Differences between SatO2 levels prior to and following HBO treatment were signifi cant in the CT2, CT3 and CT4 groups (p0.05). As expected, the effi cacy of HBO in terms of the oxygen saturation of capillary blood hemoglobin was the greatest in the patient groups showing pronounced clinical and radiological changes in the lungs.

Introduction:The high level of morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease is largely due toinsufficient influence on the main risk factors that contribute to the development of myocardial infarction.Therefore, a detailed study and assessment of risk factors is among the most important problems of medical and social importance. The aim: To study and evaluate the impact of biological, social and hygienic, social and economic, psychological, natural and climatic risk factors on the development of myocardial infarction. Materials and methods: A sociological survey was conducted in 500 people aged 34 to 85. They were divided into two groups. The main group consisted of 310 patients with myocardial infarction. The control group consisted of 190 practically healthy people, identical by age, gender and other parameters, without diseases of the cardiovascular system. Results: It was defined that 30 factors have a significant impact on the development of myocardial infarction.Data analysis revealed that the leading risk factors for myocardial infarction were biological and socio-hygienic. The main biological factors were: hypertension and hypercholesterolemia. The man socio-hygienic factor was smoking. Conclusions: Identification of risk factors provides new opportunities for the development of more effective approaches for the prevention and treatment of myocardial infarction.

COVID-19 is a highly contagious new infection caused by the single-stranded RNA Sars-CoV-2 virus. For the first time, this infection was recorded in December 2019 in the Chinese province of Wuhan. The virus presumably crossed the interspecies barrier and passed to humans from a bat. Initially, the disease was considered exclusively in the context of damage to the respiratory system, but it quickly became clear that the disease also entails serious consequences from various systems, including the cardiovascular system. Among these consequences are myocarditis, myocardial damage, subsequent heart failure, myocardial infarction, and Takotsubo syndrome. On the other hand, clinical data indicate that the presence of chronic diseases in a patient aggravates the course and outcome of coronavirus infection. In this context, the relationship between COVID-19 and atherosclerosis, a condition preceding cardiovascular disease and other disorders of the heart and blood vessels, is particularly interesting. The renin-angiotensin system is essential for the pathogenesis of both coronavirus disease and atherosclerosis. In particular, it has been shown that ACE2, an angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, plays a key role in Sars-CoV-2 infection due to its receptor activity. It is noteworthy that this enzyme is important for the normal functioning of the cardiovascular system. Disruptions in its production and functioning can lead to various disorders, including atherosclerosis.

Развитие тромботических реакций, приводящих к нежелательным клиническим последствиям у лиц пожилого возраста, известно при многих заболеваниях, включая патологию сердечно-сосудистой системы. Сегодня идет накопление данных о степени выраженности изменений системы гемостаза у пациентов с новой коронавирусной инфекцией (COVID-19) и изучение тромбоцитарного и плазменного звена. Для понимания некоторых механизмов, связанных с патологией тромбоцитов, нами представлен обзор, в котором обобщены сведения о патофизиологических реакциях тромбоцитов в условиях их старения и возможных механизмах их патологической агрегации. Возможно, представленные фундаментальные и клинические данные будут интересны широкой аудитории специалистов для обсуждения ранней антитромбоцитарной терапии и ее обоснования не только у пациентов с сердечно-сосудистыми заболеваниями, но и с COVID-19. The development of thrombotic reactions that lead to undesirable clinical consequences in the elderly is known in many diseases, including pathology of the cardiovascular system. Today, data on the severity of changes in the hemostatic system in patients with a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) and the study of platelet and plasma levels are being accumulated. In order to understand some of the mechanisms associated with platelet pathology, we present a review that summarizes information about the pathophysiological reactions of platelets in the conditions of their aging and possible mechanisms of their pathological aggregation. Perhaps the presented fundamental and clinical data will be of interest to a wide audience of specialists to discuss early antiplatelet therapy and its justification not only in patients with cardiovascular diseases, but also with COVID-19.

The objective: to evaluate the effect of high-flow oxygen and non-invasive ventilation on the mortality rate in adults with severe respiratory failure caused by the new coronavirus infection in the intensive care unit (ICU).Subjects and methods. A one-center retrospective study was conducted. Electronic medical files of patients treated in the ICU from April 1 to May 25, 2020, were analyzed. Totally, 101 medical files were selected, further, they were divided into two groups. Group 1 (n = 49) included patients who received oxygen insufflation, and should it fail, they received traditional artificial ventilation. No non-invasive respiratory therapy was used in this group. Group 2 (n = 52) included patients who received high-flow oxygen therapy and non-invasive ventilation. The mortality rate in the groups made a primary endpoint for assessing the impact of high-flow oxygen therapy and non-invasive ventilation. The following parameters were also analyzed: drug therapy, the number of patients in whom non-invasive techniques were used taking into account the frequency of cases when these techniques failed, and the number of patients in whom artificial ventilation was initiated.Results. In Group 2, non-invasive methods of respiratory therapy were used in 31 (60%) cases. High-flow oxygen therapy was used in 19 (36%) of them; in 13 cases this method allowed weaning them from the high flow. Non-invasive ventilation was used in 18 cases, in 12 patients it was used due to progressing severe respiratory failure during humidified oxygen insufflation, in 6 patients – after the failed high-flow oxygen therapy. In Group 1, 25 (51%) patients were intubated and transferred to artificial ventilation, in Group 2, 10 (19.2%) underwent the same. The lethal outcome was registered in 23 (47%) cases in Group 1, and in 10 (19.2%) in Group 2 (p = 0.004). Analysis of drug therapy in the groups revealed the difference in the prescription of pathogenetic therapy. Logistic regression demonstrated the effectiveness of the combination of tocilizumab + a glucocorticoid in reducing the frequency of lethal cases (p = 0.001).Conclusion. The use of non-invasive respiratory support in adults with severe respiratory failure caused by the new coronavirus infection combined with therapy by tocilizumab + a glucocorticoid can reduce the incidence of lethal cases.

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are a serious threaten to the health of modern people. Understanding the mechanism of occurrence and development of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, as well as reasonable prevention and treatment of them, is a huge challenge that we are currently facing. The miR-125 family consists of hsa-miR-125a, hsa-miR-125b-1 and hsa-miR-125b-2. It is a kind of miRNA family that is highly conserved among different species. A large amount of literature shows that the lack of miR-125 can cause abnormal development of the cardiovascular system in the embryonic period. At the same time, the miR-125 family participates in the occurrence and development of a variety of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, including myocardial ischemia, atherosclerosis, ischemia-reperfusion injury, ischemic stroke, and heart failure directly or indirectly. In this article, we summarized the role of the miR-125 family in the development and maturation of cardiovascular system, the occurrence and development of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and its important value in the current fiery stem cell therapy. In addition, we presented this in the form of table and diagrams. We also discussed the difficulties and challenges faced by the miR-125 family in clinical applications.

Гепарин используется в клинической практике преимущественно как антикоагулянт. Однако спектр его эффектов значительно шире: противовоспалительный, антипролиферативный, гиполипидемический (как прямой, так и посредством повышения активности липопротеинлипазы), антикоагулянтный, противоотечный и др. Именно на противовоспалительное действие гепарина сделан акцент при терапии COVID-19. Одним из патогенетически обоснованных методов профилактики и терапии микрососудистого тромбоза в тканях легких может быть использование ингаляций нефракционированного гепарина, что позволяет реализовать как местное, так и системное действие этого препарата. Терапия ингаляциями гепарина не будет значительно увеличивать риск контаминации вирусом SARS-CoV-2 медицинского персонала при неукоснительном соблюдении стандартов и рекомендуемых мер индивидуальной защиты. Heparin is considered traditionally as an anticoagulant although it has anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, hypolipidemic (both direct and by increasing the activity of lipoprotein lipase), anticoagulative, anti-edema effects as well. The anti-inflammatory effect of heparin is in the focus of COVID-19 therapy. Inhaled (nebulized) heparin performs local and systemic effects. This way is pathogenetically justified for the prevention and treatment of microvascular thrombosis in lung tissues. Procedures of heparin inhalation should not significantly increase the risk for medical staff to become infected with SARS-CoV-2 when individual protection is fully observed.
