[A MODERN APPROACH TO THE TREATMENT OF DIABETIC POLYNEUROPATHY].

In this paper, the authors conducted research on the application of a new drug for the treatment of diabetic polyneuropathy in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 and 2. Established an effective influence on the hemodynamic, metabolic, biochemical parameters, improved sensory-motor conduction in nerve fibers. Recommended for widespread use in patients with diabetes mellitus.

[ADIPONECTIN AND A VIOLATION OF METABOLIC CONTROL AT DIFFERENT STAGES OF NONALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE IN PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES].

One of the urgent problems of Endocrinology is the study of the mechanisms of formation and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2. Prognosis depends on the stage of NAFLD in which the changes occur and secretion of adipocytokines in the first place, adiponectin. The aim of the study was to: define adiponectin levels in the circulation of patients with type 2 diabetes at different stages of NAFLD and its impact on the detection of metabolic changes, the establishment of linkages with carbohydrate, lipid, protein metabolism, and liver function.

[Mechanisms of formation and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in type 2 diabetics].

Currently, study of the mechanisms of formation and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a topical problem in endocrinology. Prognosis for the disease depends on NAFLD stage and it determines the necessity to study the origin and mostly the progression in NAFLD course. It will favour the enhancement of efficacy of the treatment for this cohort of patients.

Attitudes toward cost-containment features of managed care: differences among patient subgroups.

Objective: To analyze the extent to which personal characteristics and circumstances affect attitudes toward cost-containment aspects of managed care.

Study Design: A national probability sample component of the 1994 Robert Wood Johnson Foundation National Access to Care Survey.

Methods: Telephone and in-person survey follow-up of 3480 persons who completed the 1993 National Health Interview Survey.
