[Application of narrow-band optical radiation with a wavelength of 650 nm in complex treatment of children with developmental speech delay].

Objective: To substantiate the use of photochromotherapy (narrow-band optical radiation with an average wavelength of 650 nm) in the complex treatment of children with developmental speech delay on the type of general speech underdevelopment (GSU) of I and II degree.

Material And Methods: A number of children equal 70 aged from 4 to 6 years with developmental speech delay were examined. All patients were randomized into 2 clinically comparable groups: the 1st (study) group included 35 patients who received medical treatment in accordance with clinical recommendations in combination with the use of narrow-band optical radiation with an average wavelength of 650nm for 10 days; the 2nd (comparison) group consisted of 35 subjects who received standard drug therapy according to the established clinical recommendations.

A New Technology for Recovery of Locomotion in Patients after a Stroke.

Neural networks in the spinal cord can generate the walking pattern and control posture in the absence of supraspinal influences. A technology using transcutaneous electrical spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) was created. During walking, tSCS activated spinal locomotor networks, as well as leg flexor/extensor motor pools in the swing/stance phases, respectively.

Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation Attenuates Blood Pressure Drops in Orthostasis.

Orthostatic hypotension is a complex medical problem with various underlying pathogenic mechanisms and limited modalities for its correction. Since transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (t-SCS) leads to immediate blood pressure (BP) elevation in a supine position, we suggested that t-SCS may attenuate blood pressure drops in orthostasis. We aimed to evaluate the hemodynamic effects of t-SCS during tilt testing in a feasibility study in three patients with documented orthostatic hypotension.

[Terahertz modulated infrared radiation in the complex treatment of patients in the acute period of ischemic stroke].

Unlabelled: Ischemic stroke (IS) is a serious medical and social problem due to the widespread prevalence, profound and long-term disability of patients. The effectiveness of pharmaceutical neuroprotection in IS remains low which necessitates the investigation of new therapeutic methods in post-stroke patients.

Objective: The rationale for the use of infrared (IR) radiation with terahertz (THz) modulation in the complex treatment of patients in the acute period of IS.

Internal doses in experimental mice and rats following exposure to neutron-activated MnO powder: results of an international, multicenter study.

The experiment was performed in support of a Japanese initiative to investigate the biological effects of irradiation from residual neutron-activated radioactivity that resulted from the A-bombing. Radionuclide Mn (T = 2.58 h) is one of the main neutron-activated emitters during the first hours after neutron activation of soil dust particles.
