[Topical problems and concepts of development of military otorhinolaryngology].

One of the primary objectives of military otorhinolaryngology is to provide specialized otorhinolaryngological aid to the sick,wounded, and injured servicemen during local armed conflicts and in times of peace. The military forces of the Russian Federation must have up-to-date, mobile, readily available, and many-level otorhinolaryngological service. The concept of further development of this service has been elaborated to ensure its balanced and sustainable functioning.

[The application of computed stabilometry for the diagnostics of vestibular disorders following stapedoplasty and for the estimation of the functional status in man].

The present work was designed to estimate changes in the quality of the equilibrium function (QEF) and dynamic stabilization indices (DSI) of the vertical position of the body in comparison with the traditional stabilometric characteristics (the length and the area of statokinesigram, mean radius of body deviation, average linear centre of foot pressure displacement velocity). The computed stabilometric technique was used to study the equilibrium function in the patients (n=133) presenting with otorhinolaryngological problems and requiring the surgical treatment. It was shown that selected stabilometric characteristics (such as QEF and DSI) may be useful for control of the efficacy of the treatment of surgical patients; moreover, they can be applied to the evaluation of dynamics of the patients' health status during the postoperative period.

[The stabilometric evaluation of resistance to motion sickness in man].

This work was designed to develop a mathematical model based on the results of computed stabilometry in the subjects differing in the degree of resistance to motion sickness. The model is designed for the purpose of instant diagnostics in the course of occupational selection. Stabilometric characteristics of 61 men aged from18 to 24 years were compared with those obtained by the method of continuous cumulation of Coriolis accelerations.

[The role of genetic mutations in the patents with the acquired forms of sensorineural impairment of hearing].

The objective of the present work was to study the role of GST genes in pathogenesis of various neurodegenerative conditions with special reference to sensorineural impairment of hearing. The DNA samples obtained from 200 subjects were available for the investigation; 109 of them were the patients hospitalized in the otorhinolaryngologcal clinic of S.M.

[The pathogenetic approach to the development of tools and methods for the improvement of statokinetic stability in the operators of aerospace systems].

The objective of the present study was to estimate the efficacy of the tools and methods for the optimization of the activity of the central nervous system (CNS) and analyzers involved in the maintenance of the statokinetic (SK) stability in man. To this effect, we evaluated the outcome of bemitil treatment during 10 days with and without A.I.

[Possibilities for the application of the computed videooculographic technique in the clinical practice for the treatment of the patients presenting with vestibular disorders].

The objective of the present study was to carry out clinical examination of the patients presenting with peripheral total cochleovestibular syndrome combined with vertebrobasiliar insufficiency before (in the phase of exacerbation), during, and after the conservative treatment that consisted of a course of traditional drug therapy. A relatively new diagnostic method of computed videooculography was applied. The 316 patients with the aforementioned combined pathology who received conservative pharmacotherapy were available for the dynamic follow-up.

[Concept of development of the provision of otorhinolaryngological care in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation].

Discussed the necessity of development of the Concept of otorhinolaryngology in the Armed Forces in 2020, aims and objectives of the concept, the proposed solutions for implementation of the proposed concepts: standardization and differentiation of specialized otorhinolaryngological care; development of hospital-replace technologies, the introduction of innovative methods, development of monitoring and evaluation of care quality; staffing; optimization of medical supplies; improving of material and technical base; reform of medical records; creation of unified information and communication infrastructure; conduction of preventative works for healthy lifestyles.

[The system of rendering ENT-aid in the troops in the new look of medical service the Russian Armed Forces].

In the system of staged treatments the medical company is the first medical division where the qualified medical aid is delivered. The last one consists of elimination of conditions menacing for life, preventive maintenance of their complications at traumas and wounds ENT-organs, preparation of the wounded man sick to evacuation, treatment of sharp pathology of ENT-organs. There is an expert-otolaryngologist in medical company of a brigade.

[About the terminology of the battle mechanical damages].

The terminology of the battle mechanical damages has a direct connection with determination of frequency and structure of such damages and value of sanitary loss. The entitled figures are necessary for troop basis during the medical treatment. The present article is written because of appearance in large academic and research works of military-medical directionality inadequate and incorrect data of frequency of damages by the similar wounds.

[Prophylactic medical examination of military personnel with ENT-diseases].

One of the most important goals in military otolaryngology is a prevention ENT-diseases of armed forces personnel. Prophylactic medical examination of their staff is the major instrument in it. The article presents detailed project of its realization in accordance with present-day classification of ENT-diseases (International Classification of Diseases by World Health Organization), new structure of medical service and its resources and conditions.

[Damages of ENT-organs inflicted by the weapon of not-lethal (traumatic) action].

There was effectuated a research of killability of traumatic weapon in laboratory as well as during analyzing of clinical observations. There were considered the results of treatment of 8 persons, suffered from traumatic weapon. It was occurred a clinical recovery by 7 wounded persons from 8.

[The role of hypoxic-hypercapnic training in reducing local protective factors of the lung in a chronic inflammatory process in bronchopulmonary tissue under experimental conditions].

The effect of hypoxic-hypercapnic trainings (HHT), conducted before the induction of inflammation or started at next day after foreign body bringing, was shown in experiment on rats with chronic inflammation process in bronchopulmonary tissue. HHT conducted before the induction of inflammation in general had an favourable effect. HHT conducted later had a positive effect together with expressed negative changes, in particular worsening of inflammation process in lung.

[An electrophoretic analysis of human glycoprotein hormones and their subunits].

Stability of heterodimers of human glycoprotein hormones with gonadotropic and thyrotropic activities in sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) under non-reducing conditions at low temperature permits to resolve the native molecules of these hormones in SDS-PAG and to distinguish from their dissociated subunits by electrophoretical mobility. The analysis of dimers and alpha-, beta-subunits in one polyacrylamide gel allows to detect certain human glycoprotein hormones and to study some of their physico-chemical properties. Using two polyclonal antisera against human LH and FSH by the Western blot immunoassay it was shown that heterodimers as well as alpha and beta subunits after SDS-PAGE retain antigenic activity of native hormones.

[Construction and analysis of the tularemia pathogen gene library in Escherichia coli].

The library of tularemia causative agent genes cloned on the pHC79 plasmid and the partial clonotek of these agents genes in Escherichia coli cells have been constructed. The immunochemical analysis has revealed seven clones of Escherichia coli harbouring the recombinant plasmids and expressing francisella antigens. The cloned sequences of francisella DNA as well as the recombinant plasmids containing them and coding for francisella antigens are capable of specific hybridization with the DNA from Francisella tularensis strains and Francisella novicida strain U112.
