Allergy is a disease of the 20th century. 30% - 40% of the world's population is allergic to various irritants. "Dangerous" agents invading the human body: bacteria, viruses, airborne dust, animal fur, foreign proteins, etc. cause various allergic diseases and can often lead to serious complications (including lethal outcome). This article discusses the causes and characteristic symptoms of allergies, modern methods of diagnosis and treatment with effective and safe antihistamines - Polesin, Lotegra, Loranex, Erius, Eslotin, Telfast, Allerfast, Nixar, Loratadine, Claritine, Cetek, Alertek , Zetrin, Parlazin, Kestin, Zirtek, Terrix, etc. Immunotherapy - or specific hyposensitization - is also characterized as a modern and effective method of treatment, the principle of which lies in the production of specific tolerance (indiscretion) towards the causative allergen.

Glioblastoma (GB) is one of the most common types of lethal brain tumors. Although several treatment options are available including surgery, along with adjuvant chemo and radiotherapy, the disease has a poor prognosis and patients generally die within 14 months of diagnosis. GB is chemo and radio resistant. Thus, there is a critical need for new insights into GB treatment to increase the chance of therapeutic success. This is why microRNA (miRNA) is being potentially considered in the diagnosis and treatment of glioblastoma. The objective of our review is to provide a holistic picture of GB up-regulated and down-regulated miRNA, in relationship with the expression of other genes, cell signaling pathways, and their role in GB diagnosis and treatment. MiRNA treatment is being considered to be used against GB together with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Moreover, the use of miRNA as a diagnostic tool has also begun. Knowing that miRNAs are isolated in almost all human body fluids and that there are more than 3000 miRNAs in the human genome, plus the fact that each miRNA controls hundreds of different mRNAs, there is still much study needed to explore how miRNAs relate to GB for its proliferation, progression, and inhibition.

This book attempts to present a complicated subject in a simple manner to help parents of allergic children in their understanding and care of allergic diseases. It encounters the major problems of all medical books written for the layman in trying to outline diagnosis and treatment in such a way as not to clash with the opinions and directions of the patient's physician and to avoid emphasis because of the author's bias. From the reader's standpoint, it is largely successful in both respects.

In the previous issue of the magazine, we talked about how the lack of pituitary hormones manifests itself and what modern methods of diagnosis and treatment of these conditions exist. Today we continue the story about the disease of the hypothalamic-pituitary system and dwell on the symptoms of excessive secretion of pituitary hormones.

Abstract: Filtering respiratory protection devices are widely used in industry and now in healthcare. The tests that these products undergo assess only the technical characteristics, without considering how the personal protective equipment affects the physiological processes of the user. The purpose of this study was to study modern methods of physiological assessment of the negative impact of the use of filtering respiratory protection devices on the human body. Analyzed domestic and foreign publications. The absence of a unified set of physiological methods for assessing the impact of filtering means of personal respiratory protection on the employee's body was established. This may be due to insufficient actualization of this problem both in Russia and in foreign countries.
