[Treatment of acute venous thromboses in patients with varicose disease of lower extremity veins].

The work was devoted to surgical methods of treatment of acute venous thromboses of main lower extremity veins for prevention of thromboembolic complications in patients with varicose disease of lower extremities. Possibilities of surgical correction of the venous blood flow are discussed at different variants of the course of acute venous thrombosis. An analysis of treatment of 92 patients with thrombotic lesions of the main lower extremity veins and high danger of thromboembolic complications has shown that more than 40% of patients with venous thromboembolism need treatment with surgical and medicodiagnostic endovascular interventions.

[The electromagnetic fields of the base stations of mobile radio communication and ecology. The estimation of danger of the base station EMF for population and for bioecosystems].

The estimation of the danger for the population and for the bioecosistems of the electromagnetic conditions around of the base stations was given. The insufficiency of the scientific knowledge does not allow to guarantee the safety of the population and of the bioecosystems in the conditions of a round-the-clock long-term influence of EMF RF. WHO recommends to use "Precautionary principle".

Current views on mechanisms responsible for sensitivity of the body to weather conditions are presented. Two types of meteorological reactions are recognized: to weather as a whole and to separate meteorological factors. Clinico-meteorological follow-up of 356 patients and healthy subjects aged 7-25 years provided grounds for dividing meteorological reactions into kerosotropic and meteorotropic.
