Rupture of a deep femoral artery aneurysm with pulsating hematoma: a case report.

True deep femoral artery aneurysms are a rare abnormality of the human vascular system and account for approximately 0.13% of all peripheral arterial aneurysms. We report a 66-year-old man with a ruptured deep femoral artery aneurysm and a pulsating hematoma.

ASTHMA IN A PATIENT WITH COVID-19: DOES IT PROTECT OR INCREASE THE RISKS?

Objective: The aim: To investigate theimpact of asthma co-morbidity on the susceptibility and clinical course of COVID-19 in asthma patients.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: Electronic databases of Pubmed and Google Scholar were searched using keyword searches.

Conclusion: Conclusions: Despite previous concerns about the increased risk of Covid-19 among asthmatics, most studies have not shown an increase in Covid-19 incidence among asthmatics compared to the general population.

[Surgical treatment of a post-traumatic giant pseudoaneurysm of the axillary artery: a case report].

A false aneurysm of the axillary artery is an extremely rare complication of a lesion of this vessel. As few as several dozens of similar cases have been described in the available literature. We herein report a clinical case concerning surgical treatment of a 41-year-old patient who after a knife-inflicted injury had developed a 66x67 mm pseudoaneurysm of the axillary artery.

Mechanisms of insomnia formation with gastroesophageal reflux disease, taking into account the psychosomatic status in young people.

Objective: The aim: The work is aimed to study the formation mechanisms of sleep disturbances with GERD based on the determination of melatonin and serotonin indicators in the blood, psychosomatic status and quality of sleep, motor-secretory function of the esophagus and stomach in young people.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: All 63 patients were with non-erosive GERD and insomnia. Among them, 32 with inhibitory personality type and 31 with excitable personality type.

The Role of Endothelial Dysfunction in the Mechanism of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Development in Patients with Ischemic Heart Disease.

Ischemic heart disease (IHD) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are among the most common diseases worldwide, which in a considerable percentage of cases occur together, thus complicating symptoms, posing problems for timely diagnosis and hindering development of a comprehensive treatment regimen for both diseases. Research has shown that endothelial dysfunction is one of the major pathophysiological mechanisms in the development of IHD. Endothelial dysfunction also affects regional perfusion of the esophagus, thus compromising esophageal tissue defense mechanisms.
