The widespread prevalence of comorbid pathology determines the relevance of this problem. Comorbid pathology due to the interaction of diseases, drug pathomorphism, age characteristics of the patient, significantly changes clinical picture and course of the main nosology, affects severity of complications and their nature, significantly affects quality of life and prognosis of patients. Diagnosis and treatment of many diseases is complicated in the conditions of comorbidity. The article presents a clinical case of a comorbid patient with arterial hypertension from the moment of exposure to risk factors and ending with the formation of many concomitant diseases, as an example of trans-nosological comorbidity.

Описан клинический случай пациент с нефротическим синдромом, стероид резистентный вариант, с артериальной гипертензией, осложненный полисерозитом (гидроторакс, асцит, плеврит). Пациент поступил в клинику в состоянии средней степени тяжести, с массивными отеками, полисерозитом, артериальной гипертензией и выраженным нефротическим синдромом. Диагноз: Гломерулярная болезнь. Нефротический синдром, стероид резистентный вариант. Функция почек снижена (СКФ- 84мл/мин по Шварцу). Двухсторонний экссудативный плеврит. Гидроторакс. Полисерозит (в рамках нефротического синдрома) был установлен на основании выраженного нефротического синдрома. Пациенту была проведена патогенетическая терапия. Отмечено улучшение состояния больного, в виде снижения отеков, нормализаций артериального давления, что в свою очередь поспособствовало сохранению и улучшению качества жизни пациента. A clinical case of a patient with nephrotic syndrome, steroidresistant variant, with arterial hypertension complicated by polyserositis (hydrothorax, ascites, pleurisy) is described. The patient was admitted to the clinic in a state of moderate severity, with massive edema, polyserositis, arterial hypertension, and severe nephrotic syndrome. Diagnosis: Glomerular disease. Nephrotic syndrome, steroidresistant variant. The kidney function is reduced (GFR - 84 ml/min according to Schwartz). Bilateral exudative pleurisy. Hydrothorax. Polyserositis (within the framework of nephrotic syndrome) was established based on the severe nephrotic syndrome. The patient underwent pathogenetic therapy. An improvement in the patient's condition was noted, in the form of a decrease in edema, normalization of blood pressure, which in turn contributed to the preservation and improvement of the patient's quality of life.

This chapter reviews the incidence, risk factors, genetics, recurrence risk, and epidemiology of arthrogryposis. The most common and clinically recognizable type among the congenital contractures is amyoplasia, and treatment options are improving the quality of life for these patients. The distal arthrogryposes are mostly autosomal dominant and caused by an increasing number of genes including variants in PIEZ02 and MYH3 among several others. The lethal contracture syndromes have an expanding number of causes many of which are autosomal recessive. The majority of these conditions are recognized on US. In viable syndromes the early and intensive use of physical therapy is critical and can result in significant joint mobilization. The clinical case presentation features an infant with lethal multiple pterygia syndrome.

Purpose. To study the clinical picture, diagnosis and treatment of epispadias in girls. Material and methods. 22 girls with epispadias of various forms were under supervision for 50 years. During diagnostics the following issues were used: anamnesis, examination, catheterization and uroflowmetry, cystoscopy of the bladder, ultrasound and X-ray examination. Results and discussion. Out of 22 girls with epispadias, clitoral epispadia (partial ) was in 10 patients; sub-symphisal (subtotal) - in 4; symphisal (total) - in 8 girls. In 10 girls with the clitoral form, urological examination was made because of changes in the urine. Girls with sub-symphisal epispadia complained of irritation and itching in the vulva. All had vulvitis, cystitis, chronic pyelonephritis. In 2 patients, renal doubling was diagnosed; in other 2 patients ureterohydronephrosis and kidney dystopia were diagnosed. Uroflowmetry revealed hyperactive bladder in all. 8 girls with the total (symphisial) form of epispadia and urinary incontinence were operated by the Derzhavin technique; after the surgery the function of bladder sphincter was restored and the patients could have a normal quality of life. Conclusion. Epispadia in girls is a rare case . There are clitoral, sub-symphisal and symphisal (total) forms of epispadias. Cluster and sub-symphisial forms do not require surgical treatment. While in the symphisial (total) form, plastic surgery on the bladder neck by the Derzhavin technique is recommended. It is a good option for recovery.

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of hemophilia B in the global population is approximately 1:60,000. Undifferentiated systemic mesenchymal dysplasia (uSMD) is diagnosed rather frequently, about 1:5, according to Russian authors; no data on uSMD prevalence in other countries are available. The combination of hemophilia and uSMD has grouped under the term hematomesenchymal dysplasia (HMD). This combination significantly worsens the clinical picture, prognosis, and quality of life of the patient. AIM: In this article, we present a rare clinical case of a child with a combination of hemophilia B and HMD. CASE REPORT: A clinical case of a male patient, 5 years old with hemophilia B, severe form combined with HMD, complicated by hemothorax, abscessed pulmonary lobe hematoma has presented. The presence of HMD and the above complications had an unfavorable effect on the severity of the clinical picture and the abnormal response to treatment. The main diagnostic procedures were the assessment of the phenotypic signs of HMD in combination with laboratory and instrumental examination methods such as ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) scan, and echocardiography. Vital treatment is factor IX replacement therapy and supportive one. CONCLUSION: This clinical example highlights the importance of clinical alertness to hereditary coagulopathies, which often lead to life threatening, sometimes disabling complications that significantly reduce the quality of life of children with hemophilia. Consequently, full-scale epidemiological studies of the prevalence of HMD in the population are an urgent task for the near future.

Aim. To assess the prevalence of stress and its association with socio-demographic characteristics, cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in the Siberian population.Material and methods. A cross-sectional study was performed in the framework of the Russian multicenter epidemiological study ESSE-RF in the Kemerovo Region in 2013. The presented study included 1628 individuals aged 25 to 64 years. Information was assessed on the presence of stress, some socio-demographic and economic characteristics, a history of CVD, as well as behavioral habits and quality of life. To eliminate the modifying effect of socio-demographic characteristics, a logistic regression analysis was used. The odds ratio (OR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated.Results. The prevalence of stress was 22,6%; stress was statistically significantly more often recorded in women (28,1%) than in men (11,7%). After adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics, stress was statistically significantly more often recorded in people with secondary and primary education compared with those with higher education (24,9% and 19,1%, p=0,006), as well as in people with middle and high financial affluence compared with low affluence (24,5% and 11,3%, p<0,001). This association is observed only at the expense of women. For unemployed participants, the stress rate is higher only among males — 18,8% versus 11,4% among workers (p=0,015). Stress was also statistically significantly more often recorded in groups with arterial hypertension, lack of sleep, quality of life on the EQ-VAS scale and on the EuroQol scale. Smokers are more likely to have stress (23,8% vs 22,0%) and have a history of stroke (35,3% vs 22,2%). Among all CVDs and their risk factors, an inverse association of stress with obesity was revealed only in men.Conclusion. Study showed that people with stress are under large load of some cardiovascular risk factors. At the same time, ambiguous associations between stress and arterial hypertension and quality of life were obtained. This confirms the need for further study of the association of stress with other factors of cardiovascular risk, taking into account age and gender and socio-economic characteristics of the population.

Today, hypertension is considered by many authors within the framework of the manifestation of the metabolic syndrome. It has been established that in persons with hypertension in 60% of cases, various variants of MS are found. In addition, hypertension is a factor that reduces the quality of life of patients, especially those with comorbid pathology

Background: The patients on hemodialysis have a significantly decreased quality of life. One of many problems which reduce the quality of life and increase the mortality in these patients is osteoporosis and osteoporosis associated fractures. Objectives: To assess the bone density of those on hemodialysis by dual energy X ray absorptiometry and to examine the risk factors of bone density reduction in these patients. Patients and Method: This is a cross-sectional study, including 93 patients on chronic hemodialysis at the department of Hemodialysis at Cho Ray Hospital. Results: Mean bone densities at the region of interest (ROI) neck, trochanter, Ward triangle, intertrochanter and total neck are 0.603 ± 0.105; 0.583 ± 0.121; 0.811 ± 0.166; 0.489 ± 0.146; 0.723 ± 0.138 g/cm2 respectively. The prevalences of osteoporosis at those ROI are 39.8%, 15.1%; 28%; 38.7%; and 26.9% respectively. The prevalences of osteopenia at those ROI are 54.8%; 46.3%; 60.2%; 45.2% and 62.7% respectively. The prevalence of osteopososis in at least one ROI is 52.7% and the prevalence of osteopenia in at least one ROI is 47.3%. There are relations between the bone density at the neck and the gender of the patient and the albuminemia. Bone density at the trochanter is influenced by gender, albuminemia, calcemia and phosphoremia. Bone density at the intertrochanter is affected by the gender. Bone density at the Ward triangle is influenced by age and albuminemia. Total neck bone density is influenced by gender, albuminemia and phosphoremia. Conclusion: Osteoporosis in patients on chronic hemodialysis is an issue that requires our attention. There are many interventionable risk factors of bone density decrease in these patients. Key words: Osteoporosis, DEXA, chronic renal failure, chronic hemodialysis
