[Protein component in therapeutic effect of electric current].

Literature data and authors' own observation on the role of albumin in realization of curative effect of electric current are summarized in the article. Electric current action on albumin leads to physical and chemical changes (conformational ones, membrane process are also involved, development of free forms of biologically active substances) and biochemical changes (enzymes activity, lipid peroxidation). It furthers the normalization of function of body organs and systems.

[Clinical and experimental aspects of influence of ultrasound on tissue regeneration].

The article summarizes literature and own obtained data on influence of low intensity ultrasound on tissue regeneration. Improvement of tissue regeneration is directly caused by influence of ultrasound on albumin, chondrocytes, intensity of DNA synthesis, immune system function. An important aspect of ultrasound action is its antioxidant effect.

[Clinical and experimental aspects of the treatment effect of laser irradiation].

The article summarizes literature data and results of the authors' studies on clinical experimental aspects of the treatment effect of laser emission. The literature shows that among different therapeutic effects of laser emission, the most studied are neurotropic, methabolic, immunomodulating, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory as well as its ability to stimulate the regeneration of wounds and bones. The authors stressed on biostimulative effect of laser therapy.

[Use of several microvascular flaps in replacement of extensive suppurative-necrotic defects of the supporting surface of the foot: transplantation of a double shin-foot flap].

The scheme of conduction of the microvascular transplantation using double flap of shin and foot combined with musculus serratus anterior is adduced. The double combination consists of the transplant of medial shin surface and medial plantar fragment. The advantages of the proposed method (availability of thin hypodermic base, own sensitive nerve, united blood supply system, and also long vascular pedicle, resistance for the exercise load, possibility of linking up of the third complex, and, perhaps, minimal harm done to donor region) contrary to the transplantation of a piece transplant having large dimensions permit to apply more effectively the double flap for the supporting points of foot substitution.
