The Wound-Healing Effect of a Novel Fibroblasts-Impregnated Hydroxyethylcellulose Gel in a Rat Full-Thickness Burn Model: A Preclinical Study.

The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of a cell-containing wound dressing based on fibroblasts in hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) gel for the local treatment of deep partial-thickness and/or full-thickness skin burns in an animal model. The rats (male Wistar, n = 100) were subjected to a full-thickness thermal burn (16 cm). Radical necrectomy was performed one day after the burn.

[Assessment of the high cost drug program on an example of the interferon treatment of multiple sclerosis].

Currently in Russia, there is a rather complicated situation with the distribution of expensive disease modifying drugs (DMD) purchased by the state for treatment of patients with multiple sclerosis. In this regard, it is necessary to carry out a serious organizational work in the direction of assessment of equivalence of biosimilars and original drugs concerning, first of all, efficacy and safety. Also, there is a problem of the replacement of one biosimilar by another in connection with organizational problems of shipping DMD to country regions.

Observation of a narrow charm-strange meson D(+)(sJ)(2632)-->D(+)(s)eta and D(0)K(+).

We report the first observation of a charm-strange meson D(+)(sJ)(2632) at a mass of 2632.5+/-1.7 MeV/c(2) in data from SELEX, the charm hadro-production experiment E781 at Fermilab.

First observation of the doubly charmed baryon Xi(+)(cc).

We observe a signal for the doubly charmed baryon Xi(+)(cc) in the charged decay mode Xi(+)(cc)-->Lambda(+)(c)K-pi(+) in data from SELEX, the charm hadroproduction experiment at Fermilab. We observe an excess of 15.9 events over an expected background of 6.

Precision measurements of the lambda(+)(c) and D0 lifetimes.

We report new precision measurements of the lifetimes of the Lambda(+)(c) and D0 from SELEX, the charm hadroproduction experiment at Fermilab. Based upon 1630 Lambda(+)(c) and 10 210 D0 decays we observe lifetimes of tau[Lambda(+)(c)] = 198.1+/-7.
