Background: There is enough evidence of the negative impact of excess weight on the formation and progression of res piratory pathology. Given the continuing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, it is relevant to determine the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and the clinical features of the novel coronavirus infection (NCI).
Aim: To study the effect of BMI on the course of the acute SARS-COV-2 infection and the post-covid period.
Intravitreal drug administration is a procedure that has become widespread in modern ophthalmology. However, there is no global consensus on certain aspects of this manipulation, and practitioners feel the need for guidelines. In the Russian Federation, until now, such a document was not available.

Material And Methods: The study included 46 patients (46 eyes) with tumors of the choroid: 19 men and 26 women aged 22 to 89 years, average age 53.2±17.
Aim To study the antianginal and heart rate slowing effects in patients with stable angina (SA) who failed to achieve the heart rate (HR) goal and were switched from the beta-blocker (BB) metoprolol tartrate to a combination of metoprolol tartrate and ivabradine.Materials and methods The study included 54 patients with SA not higher than functional class (FC) III (35 (64.8 %) men and 19 (35.

Materials And Methods: The study involved 47 patients who underwent selective coronary angiography (SCA) for detection of IHD. The patients were divided into two groups based on the SCA results: group 1 included 28 patients with hemodynamically significant RCA stenosis; group 2 consisted of 19 patients with hemodynamically non-significant RCA stenosis.
Aim: the study of comorbid status and characteristics of clinical course of ischemic heart disease (IHD) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of case histories of 958 IHD patients aged 32 to 93 years (mean age of 60.8±10.
We present a new technique for large-scale fabrication of colloidal crystals with controllable quality and thickness. The method is based on vertical deposition in the presence of a DC electric field normal to the conducting substrate. The crystal structure and quality are quantitatively characterized by microradian X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and optical reflectometry.

Through adaptation of Wilson's theory for X-ray diffraction, we show that certain types of line defects that are often observed in scanning electron microscopy images of the surface of these crystals are actually planar defects at 70.

Changes of electrokinetic properties of cell nuclei and the quantity of granules of heterochromatin located near the nuclear envelope in nuclei of human buccal epithelium cells were studied under the influence of electromagnetic fields in vitro. Irradiation of cells was realized by means of a semiconductor generator of millimeter radiation (wavelength 7.1 mm, frequency 42.
