Bibliometric Analysis of the Role of Occludin in the Pathogenesis of Stroke.

Over the past decade, there has been a notable surge in research dedicated to unraveling the intricate role of tight junction proteins in blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage associated with ischemic stroke. This bibliometric analysis explores the expansive landscape of occludin research, a key tight junction protein, during the years 2000-2023, shedding light on the global scientific contributions, collaborations, and emerging trends in this critical area of stroke pathogenesis. China and the United States emerge as significant contributors, underscoring their prominence in advancing our understanding of tight junction proteins.

ANALYSIS OF RISK FACTORS FOR ISCHEMIC STROKE IN RURAL RESIDENTS OF THE AKTOBE REGION.

Stroke continues to be a major global health concern, accounting for the fifth highest death rate and a sizable portion of the world's disability burden. Over 40,000 stroke cases are reported annually in the Republic of Kazakhstan, of which 5,000 people die within the first 10 days and an additional 5,000 within a month after discharge. Even with the establishment of regional stroke centers, a state anti-stroke program, and substantial efforts, rural communities still experience higher rates of stroke-related morbidity and mortality.

KAZAKH ADAPTATION OF THE MONTREAL COGNITIVE ASSESSMENT (MOCA).

The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a brief cognitive evaluation tool that has been developed for screening of patients for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). MCI is a recognized high-risk state for Alzheimer's disease development. The aim of the present study was to create a Kazakh-language adaptation of the original version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (version 7.

Establishing prognostic significance of hypoxia predictors in patients with acute cerebral pathology.

Objectives: This research aims to study the prognostic role of serum S100 as a predictor of mortality in vascular and traumatic brain injuries.

Methods: This prospective cohort study involved 219 patients. In the blood serum, neuron-specific markers (S100, NSE) and glucose, acid-base state and gas composition of arterial blood were obtained at admission, on the 3rd, 5th and 7th days of patients' stay in the intensive care unit.

[DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPY OF PARKONSON'S DISEASE AND ESSENTIAL TREMOR: REVIEW AND CLINICAL CASE].

At present, the problem of differential diagnosis and therapy of Parkinson's disease and essential tremor is one of the topical issues of modern clinical neurology. Despite the nosological independence of these diseases, there is evidence of their pathogenetic relationship. The article presents a review of the results of modern scientific research devoted to the study of criteria for diagnosing Parkinson's disease and essential tremor.
