Tongue cancer at a young age demonstrates an increase in incidence, aggressiveness, and poor response to therapy. Classic etiological factors for head and neck tumors such as tobacco, alcohol, and human papillomavirus are not related to early-onset tongue cancer. Mechanisms of development and progression of this cancer remain unclear.

To identify genetic alterations associated with tongue cancer recurrence in young adults, whole exome sequencing of the primary tumor, recurrence, and whole blood samples from young patients with tongue cancer was performed. A frameshift mutation in the TP53 gene was detected in the primary tumor and recurrence tumor tissue. A mutation in the EPHB6 gene was detected in the recurrence and was absent in the primary tumor.

The objective of the review is to summarize available literary data on the role and prognostic value of molecular biological markers p53, UBE2C, CD147, STAT3, VEGF in the carcinogenesis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). To date, researches have been studying HNSCC molecular and genetic characteristics and obtaining information about new molecular biological markers that have different functional significance in tumor progression. This review presents current data on protein molecules involved in the HNSCC development, as well as in the formation of drug resistance mechanisms in tumors.

In this work, the micro-arc oxidation method is used to fabricate surface-modified complex-structured titanium implant coatings to improve biocompatibility. Depending on the utilized electrolyte solution and micro-arc oxidation process parameters, three different types of coatings (one of them-oxide, another two-calcium phosphates) were obtained, differing in their coating thickness, crystallite phase composition and, thus, with a significantly different biocompatibility. An analytical approach based on X-ray computed tomography utilizing software-aided coating recognition is employed in this work to reveal their structural uniformity.

The Aim: Of this study was to validate the Acoustic Voice Quality Index (AVQI) in Russian language and determine threshold values to differentiate normal and dysphonic voices in russophone population.

Materials And Methods: 41 recordings of patients with laryngeal hemiplegia and hemiparesis appeared after thyroid carcinomas' surgical treatment and laryngeal cancer from the Tomsk Cancer Research Institute were used, as well as 10 new recordings of normophonic people, composing a control group. Voice samples included the first quatrain of the poem «Sail» written by M.
