RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SARCOPENIA AND OSTEOPOROSIS IN NON-ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE.

The article analyzes the scientific literature on the mechanisms of interaction of bones, muscles and adipose tissue in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Modern views on the mechanisms of sarcopenia, osteopenia and osteoporosis are highlighted. Interactions between muscles and bones involve the interaction of osteokines released from bones, muscle myokines, and cytokines, which trigger common signaling pathways leading to fibrosis, inflammation, or protein synthesis or degradation.

The authors suggest a new method for treating acute pancreatitis, which is based on the principles of an "opened abdomen" but combines practically all its advantages. The operation is called "dynamic omentopancreatostomy". This method was used in 1986-87 for the treatment of 13 patients, 7 of them had destructive pancreatitis with total and subtotal necrosis of the pancreas.
