Number and dynamics of micronuclei and near-tetraploidy predict prognosis in childhood acute leukaemia.

Objectives: This study aims to identify factors possibly contributing to complications in children with acute leukaemia. Despite diverse etiological causes, similar processes trigger the process of cell malignancy. Genomic instability has received considerable attention in this context.

[SOME CYTOGENETIC PARAMETERS IN CHILDREN WITH ACUTE LEUKEMIA ASSOCIATED WITH COVID-19 INFECTION (CASE REPORTS)].

There are data about 6 cases of acute leukemia in children who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 infection 1-1,5 months before, or at the same time. In 5 patients lymphoblastic and in one monoblastic acute leukemia were diagnosed. The course of leukemia passed without any particular complications.

Biodosimetry of Persons Chronically Exposed to Low and Therapeutic Doses of Ionizing Radiation.

Dynamic changes of the chromosomal aberrations and the DNA damage were analyzed in individuals exposed to low and therapeutic doses of radiation. The investigation included 37 persons living in areas where the radioactive sources were discovered 10-12 years ago. It was established by biodosimetry methods that the examined persons had absorbed dose of 0.

The transfer of social exclusion and inclusion functions through derived stimulus relations.

Previous studies have found that social exclusion can cause distress to those excluded. One method used to study social exclusion is through a virtual ball-toss game known as Cyberball. In this game, participants may be excluded from or included in the ball-toss game and typically report lower feelings of self-esteem, control, belonging, and meaningful existence following exclusion.
