Anesthesia enables the painless performance of complex surgical procedures. However, the effects of anesthesia on the brain may not be limited only by its duration. Also, anesthetic agents may cause long-lasting changes in the brain.

Cardiorespiratory interactions are important, both for understanding the fundamental processes of functioning of the human body and for development of methods for diagnostics of various pathologies. The properties of cardiorespiratory interaction are determined by the processes of autonomic control of blood circulation, which are modulated by the higher nervous activity. We study the directional couplings between the respiration and the process of parasympathetic control of the heart rate in the awake state and different stages of sleep in 96 healthy subjects from different age groups.

Ovarian cancer is known to be the most lethal malignancy among all gynecological cancers affecting a large number of women worldwide. The treatment of ovarian cancer is challenging due to the high recurrence rate of the disease and is further complicated by acquired chemoresistance. Most ovarian cancer deaths are the result of the metastatic spread of drug-resistant cells.

The lymphatic drainage system of the brain (LDSB) is the removal of metabolites and wastes from its tissues. A dysfunction of LDSB is an important sign of aging, brain oncology, the Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. The development of new strategies for diagnosis of LDSB injuries can improve prevention of age-related cerebral amyloid angiopathy, neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular diseases.

The influence of higher nervous activity on the processes of autonomic control of the cardiovascular system and baroreflex regulation is of considerable interest, both for understanding the fundamental laws of the functioning of the human body and for developing methods for diagnostics and treatment of pathologies. The complexity of the analyzed systems limits the possibilities of research in this area and requires the development of new tools. Earlier we propose a method for studying the collective dynamics of the processes of autonomic control of blood circulation in the awake state and in different stages of sleep.
