Disorders of the musculoskeletal system in school-age children occupy 1-2 places in the structure of functional abnormalities. Cognitive impairment without organic damage to the central nervous system is detected in 30-56% of healthy school children. Along with the increase in the incidence rate, the demand for rehabilitation systems, which allow patients to return to normal life as soon as possible and maintain the motivation for the rehabilitation process, is also growing. Adaptation of rehabilitation techniques, ease of equipment management, availability of specially trained personnel and availability of technical support for complexes becomes important.

Objective: to analyze the neurodynamic indicators of the sensorimotor response of primary school age children with orthophoria and heterotropia. Material and methods. 51 children (102 eyes) aged 6-11 were examined. 2 groups that could be compared in terms of age and sex were formed. The first group consisted of 20 patients (40 eyes) with orthophoria associated with moderate hypertropia of Hm 3.5 (2.3; 5.3) diopters, the second group included children with concomitant convergent strabismus associated with moderate hypertropia of Hm 4.25 (2.0; 6.5) diopters - 31 patients (62 eyes). To study the properties of the nervous system (NS), the computer appliance «NS-Psychotest» (LLC «Neurosoft», Ivanovo, http://neurosoft. com/ru) was used. The neurodynamic indicators of the sensorimotor response were identified with the techniques «Simple Visual Motor Response» (SVMR), «Discrimination reaction» (DR), «Moving Object Response» (MOR), «Critical Flicker-Fusion Frequency» (CFF). Results. Concomitant strabismus in the children of the second group reliably leads to an increase in the time of SVMR, DR by 65.5 ms and 42.4 ms, respectively (p < 0.05), in comparison with the group of the children with orthophoria. The difference between the indices of DR and SVMR in the children of group 1 - 51.5 ms, of group 2 - 28.4 ms, verifies a decrease of the rate of the neurodynamic processes of the NS in the children with heretotropia. In the study with the MOR technique, the time of response in the first group was - -31 (-127; 50) ms, in the second group - 22 (-29; 94) ms (р = 0.000008), a positive value of the indicator of the response time in the children of the second group is a consequence of the prevalence of inhibition processes in the central nervous system in most the examined patients. Conclusion . The obtained results show that the presence of heterotropia in the children of the second group reliably leads to decreased mobility of nervous processes and predominance of inhibition processes in the central nervous system. The combination of the low velocity of the response and expressed inertness of nervous processes in the children of the second group are indicative of a lack of coordination of the interrelations between the centers of the visual and motor analyzers.

Obesity is one of the main challenges of public health in the 21st century. Obesity can induce a series of chronic metabolic diseases, such as diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension and nonalcoholic fatty liver, which seriously affect human health. Gut-brain axis, the two-direction pathway formed between enteric nervous system and central nervous system, plays a vital role in the occurrence and development of obesity. Gastrointestinal signals are projected through the gut-brain axis to nervous system, and respond to various gastrointestinal stimulation. The central nervous system regulates visceral activity through the gut-brain axis. Brain-gut peptides have important regulatory roles in the gut-brain axis. The brain-gut peptides of the gastrointestinal system and the nervous system regulate the gastrointestinal movement, feeling, secretion, absorption and other complex functions through endocrine, neurosecretion and paracrine to secrete peptides. Both neuropeptide Y and peptide YY belong to the pancreatic polypeptide family and are important brain-gut peptides. Neuropeptide Y and peptide YY have functions that are closely related to appetite regulation and obesity formation. This review describes the role of the gutbrain axis in regulating appetite and maintaining energy balance, and the functions of brain-gut peptides neuropeptide Y and peptide YY in obesity. The relationship between NPY and PYY and the interaction between the NPY-PYY signaling with the gut microbiota are also described in this review.

Background & Objective: The large conductance calcium-activated potassium (BK) channel, extensively distributed in the central nervous system (CNS), is considered as a vital player in the pathogenesis of epilepsy, with evidence implicating derangement of K+ as well as regulating action potential shape and duration. However, unlike other channels implicated in epilepsy whose function in neurons could clearly be labeled “excitatory” or “inhibitory”, the unique physiological behavior of the BK channel allows it to both augment and decrease the excitability of neurons. Thus, the role of BK in epilepsy is controversial so far, and a growing area of intense investigation. Conclusion: Here, this review aims to highlight recent discoveries on the dichotomous role of BK channels in epilepsy, focusing on relevant BK-dependent pro- as well as antiepileptic pathways, and discuss the potential of BK specific modulators for the treatment of epilepsy.
