The Role of Hydrogen Sulfide in Regulation of Cell Death following Neurotrauma and Related Neurodegenerative and Psychiatric Diseases.

Injuries of the central (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) are a serious problem of the modern healthcare system. The situation is complicated by the lack of clinically effective neuroprotective drugs that can protect damaged neurons and glial cells from death. In addition, people who have undergone neurotrauma often develop mental disorders and neurodegenerative diseases that worsen the quality of life up to severe disability and death.

The Role of Gasotransmitter-Dependent Signaling Mechanisms in Apoptotic Cell Death in Cardiovascular, Rheumatic, Kidney, and Neurodegenerative Diseases and Mental Disorders.

Cardiovascular, rheumatic, kidney, and neurodegenerative diseases and mental disorders are a common cause of deterioration in the quality of life up to severe disability and death worldwide. Many pathological conditions, including this group of diseases, are based on increased cell death through apoptosis. It is known that this process is associated with signaling pathways controlled by a group of gaseous signaling molecules called gasotransmitters.

Thermal Processes in Bile Ducts During Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy with Monopolar Instruments. Experimental Study Using Real-Time Intraluminal and Surface Thermography.

A significant rate of complications during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) occurs due to thermal injury caused by monopolar electrosurgery (MES) equipment. Most of them manifest weeks and months after surgery with the common bile duct (CBD) and large duodenal papilla strictures, some in the early postoperative period with bile leaks. To study thermal processes occurring in the lumen and on the surface of the bile ducts during monopolar coagulation in a porcine model of LC.
