ABSTRACT

Purpose: To explore functional connectivity in patients with asymptomatic internal carotid arteries stenosis of more than 60% when using hirudotherapy.

Materials and methods: The analysis of the results of the examination of 15 patients aged 60 to 82 years with asymptomatic stenosis of the carotid arteries in the range of 60‒75 % was carried out. The patients underwent a course of hirudotherapy, consisting of 10 sessions. All patients underwent structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging with analysis of statistical data at rest, complaints and neurological status were assessed ‒ before and after the course of hirudotherapy.

Results: When using a course of hirudotherapy in patients with asymptomatic internal carotid arteries tenosis, when analyzing the neurological status and complaints, a significant improvement in well-being was noted. During functional magnetic resonance imaging, differences in functional connectivity between the medial prefrontal cortex and other areas of the brain were determined. Activation was noted in the main structures of the network of managerial control and identification of significance. Connectivity between the leading regions of the brain increased, which is a sign of improved brain activity.

Conclusion: Connectivity research can be used to study the functioning of brain networks and to determine the effectiveness of therapy. The course of hirudotherapy significantly changed the functional connectivity of the brain regions, the changes correlated with a decrease in the number of complaints. This work is a pilot and will be continued for the further development of treatment-and-prophylactic strategies with the inclusion of hirudotherapy in patients with a high risk of vascular accidents in a treatment.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: To develop the method of chemical element (ChE) content measurement in samples of breast tissue (BT) using the activation by neutrons of nuclear reactor combined with the high-resolution spectrometry of gamma-radiation of short-lived radionuclides (INAA-SLR), and to investigate ChE contents in normal human mammary gland. 

Material and methods: In the samples of BT taken from female with intact mammary glands (mostly died from trauma, n = 38) the contents of calcium (Ca), chlorine (Cl), iodine (I), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), sodium (Na), and strontium (Sr) were measured. To determine these element contents, the method of INAA-SLR was developed.

Results: The accuracy of the developed method and the reliability of the results obtained in the study were confirmed by the measurements of international certified reference material IAEA H-4 Animal Muscles and the good agreement with data of its certificate. The main statistic parameters, including, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, standard error of mean, minimum and maximum values, median, percentiles with 0.025 and 0.975 levels was calculated for ChE contents in the normal BT. It was shown, for example, that means of mass fractions ± standard errors of means  (M±SEM, mg/kg dry tissue) in normal human mammary gland were: Ca 128±14, Cl 1014±146,
I 0,82±0,11, K 196±20, Mg 80,0±9,4, Mn 0,27±0,04, Na 665±71 и Sr 5,20±0,75. It was found that the Ca, Cl, I, K, Mg, Mn, Na и Sr contents in human mammary gland very differ from the normal level of these elements in whole blood, muscle and adipose tissue, particularly in contents of I and Sr. 

Conclusion: The method of INAA-SLR allow to obtain the representative data on Ca, Cl, I, K, Mg, Mn, Na и Sr contents in human BT specimen. It was shown, that such trace elements as I and Sr may be directly involved in the mammary gland function.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: Description of a clinical case of surgical treatment of nontraumatic rupture of the renal calyx fornix, with extravasation of contrast agent into the perirenal tissue.

Material and methods: Provided surgical treatment to a patient with spontaneous rupture of the calyx fornix on the background of ureteral obstruction caused by a stone.

Results: Considering the concomitant pathology in the form of obstructive pyelonephritis, it was decided to drain the upper urinary tract with an external stent. After 7 days, the patient underwent replacement of the external stent with the internal one. The patient underwent antibacterial, anti-inflammatory therapy, with a positive clinical, laboratory effect. Retrograde pyelography was performed 7 days later. Violations of the integrity of the cavity system of the left kidney were not revealed. The external stent was replaced with an internal one. After 2 months, ureterolitho-extraction was performed on the left.

Conclusion: From the data of the world literature and our own experience, we can conclude that spontaneous, non-traumatic rupture of the fornix is an extremely rare, urgent urological disease. We assume that the development of this process is similar to the Burhave syndrome, since smooth muscle fibers are present in the esophagus as well as in the esophagus. In order to provide immediate assistance to such patients, it is necessary to urgently drain the upper urinary tract. Timely diagnosis of this condition requires rapid tactics in the form of immediate ultrasound, radiological diagnostic methods, as well as computed tomography. The operational manual on the removal of stones in this case should be postponed for 2–3 weeks.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: Defining the regularities in X-ray radiation attenuation, which characterize composite coatings based on barium sulfate and the aqueous alkaline sodium silicate solution, depending on the thickness of the layer of such coatings deposition.

Material and methods: The experiment consisted in the manufacture of experimental samples of composite coatings based on barium sulfate and the aqueous alkaline solution of sodium silicate and testing of the manufactured experimental samples. Tests of the manufactured experimental samples of composite coatings were carried out using UPR-AT300 calibration X-ray unit, DKS-AT5350 precision dosimeter in combination with a TM23361 ionization chamber (PTW Freiburg), attorney at Mendeleev All-Russian Research Institute of Metrology (Russia) on the state standards of the Russian Federation.

Results: It has been established that by increasing from 0.5 mm to 2.0 mm of the thickness of the deposition layer of these coatings, it is possible to ensure an increase of 2.0‒3.5 times of X-ray attenuation ratio values in the range of average energies 30.0‒60,0 keV.

Conclusion: The obtained results are recommended for use in solving problems related to the shielding of premises (X-ray rooms) or areas of premises (inspection zones at airports) in which X-ray sources are located.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: To study the therapeutic efficacy of the combined use of surgical excision of radiation ulcers and transplantation of syngeneic cells of the stromal-vascular fraction (SVF) of adipose tissue in the treatment of severe local radiation lesions.

Material and methods: Experiments were conducted on rats males of the inbred line Wista‒Kyoto weighing 230‒250 g. Animals were irradiated on an X-ray unit locally in the iliac-lumbar region of the back at a dose of 110 Gy (voltage on the tube 30 kV, current strength
6.1 mA, filter 0.1 mm Al), at a dose rate of 20,0 Gy/min. Irradiation field area 8.2 cm2. Radiation exposure made it possible to obtain severe skin lesions in rats with long-term non-healing ulcers, and without critical radiation exposure to the underlying tissues. Morphological study showed that the area of skin necrosis (with a maximum in the center of the irradiation zone) was formed by 21‒23 days after irradiation and was characterized by the presence of pronounced changes in all layers of the skin. Surgical excision of radiation ulcers was performed
on 22 days after exposure to radiation. The affected tissue was removed to the entire depth of the skin up to the fascia of skeletal muscles. Excision of the skin was carried out, retreating 6‒8 mm from the outer border of the radiation ulcer. Cell transplantation was carried out twice 5 and 12 days after excision of the ulcer. SVF cells were obtained from intact animals from subcutaneous adipose tissue treated with trypsin. A suspension of SVF cells of adipose tissue in 1 ml of a sterile Solution of Henks was injected under the skin at 5 points around the excision zone, retreating 5‒7 mm from the edge of the focus. The number of injected cells in one transplant was 2.5×106.

Results: The area of radiation ulcers in rats of the control group in the period from 27 to 105 days after irradiation slowly decreased from 2.8±0.2 cm2 to 1.2 ± 0.2 cm2. Excision of radiation ulcers led to rapid complete visible healing of the wound defect (already by 70 days after irradiation) with the formation of atrophic scars. Transplantation of SVF syngeneic cells increased the rate of healing of the surgical wound. 

Conclusion: The results show that surgical excision of radiation ulcers in combination with cell therapy may be an effective way to treat severe local radiation lesions.
