Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of OM-85 in the treatment of uncomplicated acute respiratory infections (ARI) in adults.
Materials And Methods: A double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, randomized trial included 556 patients (18-60 years old) with mild and moderate ARI and negative results of polymerase chain reaction analysis for SARS-CoV-2 RNA and rapid test for influenza A and B viruses. Patients were randomized into two groups: in the first group (278), patients received OM-85 (Broncho-munal) one capsule 7 mg/day for 10 days, while the second group (278) was treated with placebo in the same regimen.
Unlabelled: The specific feature of new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) is high risk of hyperinflammatory response or cytokine storm development, which underly the pathogenesis of several life-threatening conditions and determine the disease outcomes. Pathophysiological features of COVID-19 justify the search of effective drugs capable to control the hyperinflammatory response.
Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Aterixen (1-[2-(1-Мethylimidazol-4-yl)-ethyl]perhydroazin-2,6-dion) for achieving clinical improvement in adult patients hospitalized with moderate and severe COVID-19.

Scaffold-free in vitro organogenesis exploits the innate ability of cells to synthesise and deposit their own extracellular matrix to fabricate tissue-like assemblies. Unfortunately, cell-assembled tissue engineered concepts require prolonged ex vivo culture periods of very high cell numbers for the development of a borderline three-dimensional implantable device, which are associated with phenotypic drift and high manufacturing costs, thus, hindering their clinical translation and commercialisation. Herein, we report the accelerated (10 days) development of a truly three-dimensional (338.

Current knowledge about the association of parasitic infections and cancer formation has revealed several carcinogenic mechanisms, but the severity of the relationship between parasites and cancer formation (except for schistosome, opisthorchis and clonorchis) should be confirmed in future experimental and population studies.
