NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL CHANGES IN PATIENTS WITH A CONSEQUENCE OF TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY

The incidence of cognitive impairment in TBI is high, depending on the severity. At the same time, psychopathological symptoms in the form of asthenia, increased anxiety and depression are encountered among patients with TBI. The work studied the relationship between cognitive and psychopathological symptoms in patients with TBI using neuropsychological testing on scales.

EVALUATION OF TREATMENT EFFICIENCY AND INFORMATIVITY OF MRI STUDIES IN PATIENTS WITH MIGRAINE

Migraine is currently considered a common pathology, which in many cases leads to a decrease in performance. Migraine diagnostics is the most important clinical, biomedical andsocial task. MRI studies are important in the diagnosis of migraine disease. Focal lesions are localized mainly in the white matter, which confirms the clinical nature of the disease. As a drug correction, the drug Sumamigren was proposed, the early intake of which allows avoiding migraine recurrence and transition to chronicity

CLINICAL AND ELECTROMYOGRAPHIC PREDICTION OF FACIAL NERVE NEUROPATHY IN CHILDREN

In modern medical literature, discussions continue about neuropathies of the facial nerve in children,disease factors, clinical and neurological features, the severity of the course, the difficulties of diagnosis and prognosis of the disease. The work is devoted to the analysis of the neuropathy of the facial nerve in children and adolescents, depending on the clinical forms of the disease, using electroneurosympathetic indicators, the latency period, the blinking reflex and thenatureof the lesion of the facial nerve accompanied by pain syndrome

MANAGEMENT OF MULTIPLE TRAUMATIC INTRACRANIAL HEMATOMAS

Multiple traumatic hematomas (MG) account for 0.74% of all traumatic brain injuries. A comprehensive diagnostic approach to multiple traumatic intracranial hematomas allows to establish a diagnosis in the early stages of traumatic brain injury and to determine treatment tactics. A differentiated approach to the choice of surgical treatment of multiple hematomas allows to achieve satisfactory results and treatment outcomes, which accordingly contributes to the early activation of the patient, a reduction in hospital stay, a decrease in mortality and disabilityin patients with traumatic brain injury

CEREBRAL PALSY:A CLINICAL OVERVIEW

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a disorder characterized by abnormal tone, posture and movement. The incidence of CP is 2–4 per 1,000 live births in the world. Prematurityand low birth weight are important risk factors for CP; however, multiple other factors have been associated with an increased risk for CP, including maternal infections and diseases, and abnormal birth process. In most cases of CP the initial injury to the brain occurs during early fetal brain development, later a brain area that is injured cannot function properly in the future. CP is classified clinically based on the predominant motor syndrome—spastic hemiplegia, spastic diplegia, spastic quadriplegia, ataxic and dyskinetic cerebral palsies. The diagnosis of CPis based on a combination of clinical history, use of standardized neuromotor assessment and findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). If there is a suspicionof genetic or inborn metabolic disorders, screening tests should be provided additionally. Because CP is associated with multiple associated and secondary medical conditions, its management requires a multidisciplinary team approach

CLINICAL AND NEUROLOGICAL FEATURES OF TRAUMATIC BRAIN DISEASE DURING THE STAGES OF REHABILITATION

Traumatic brain disease (TBHD) is a pathological process triggered by the damaging effect of mechanical energy on the brain and is characterized — with a variety of clinical forms — by the unity of etiology, pathogenetic and sanogenetic mechanisms of development and outcomes.

EXPERIENCE OF CONSERVATIVE TREATMENT OF INTERVERTEBRAL DISC HERNIAS WITH CARIFLEX GEL AND CREAM IN AMBULATORY CONDITIONS

A complex therapy of patients with degenerative-dystrophic diseases of the spine with herniated intervertebral discs with neurological manifestations was carried out with the addition of phonophoresis Kariflex gel followed by segmental massage with Kariflex cream. The comparative evaluation of the method was carried out in 89 patients. Comparative analysis revealed the reliable efficiency of the method used. Against the background of the proposed therapy, there was a significant decrease in pain and muscle-tonic syndromes, an increase in the range of motion in the spine

AGING PECULIARITIES OF MORPHOLOGY OF NEURONS OF THE EXTRAMURAL UPPER AND LOWER NODES OF THE VAGUS NERVE OF HUMAN

The article presents data on the morphological features of the neurons of the extramural vagus ganglia. The work was performed on 100 preparations of the upper and lower extracranial nodes of the vagus nerve, taken from 100 corpses.In the proximal and distal nodes of the vagus nerve, pseudo-unipolar neurons predominantly morphologically similar to those of the spinal nodes. With age, the total volume of the neurocellular fund changes, it is significantly reduced. The most significant shifts are noted in extremely oldage, which is evidence of a significant narrowing of the adaptive-compensatorycapabilities at this age.

DIFFERENTIATED APPROACH IN IDENTIFICATION OF CAUSES IN PERIVENTRICULAR LEUKOMALATION IN CHILDREN

To study the impact of genetic variants biochemically associated with hemostasis (Leiden factor V, prothrombin G20210A and factor II) on a large number of children born with low birth weight

INDICATORS OF THYROTROPIC HORMONE IN PARKINSON'S DISEASE

The article presents the data of our studies on ТSH in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD): their characteristics, features of clinical manifestations
