[The integral evaluation of oxidative anti-oxidative status in patients of neuroreanimation department].

The article presents comparative evaluation of serum total oxidizing and total anti-oxidizing activity in reanimation patients with severe cranio-cerebral injury and ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. Due to irregularity of experimental groups in a number of demographic and clinical indicators the new estimated indicator was proposed. The normalized coefficient of oxidation made it possible to apply comparative evaluation of expression of oxidative anti-oxidative imbalance in these groups.

[Coronary calcinosis. State-of-the-art].

Atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease are the main causes of disablement and mortality in most developed countries. Clinical studies showed the relationship between coronary calcinosis and atherosclerotic lesions, the calcinosis area accounting for roughly 1/5 of the atherosclerotic plaque area. Calcinosis is quantitatively characterized by the calcium score determined by multispiral and electron-beam computed tomography.
