ASTHMA PREDICTIVE INDEX AND NITRIC OXIDE PROGNOSTIC VALUE IN YOUNG CHILDREN WITH RECURRENT WHEEZING.

The study was aiming at investigation of Asthma Predictive Index (API) and predictive value of quantitative changes in nitric/nitrogen oxide (NO) in children with recurrent wheezing of different phenotypes. An observing cross-sectional clinical study where 120 patients 5 to 7 years of ages with wheezing syndrome were involved has been conducted. In the group of patients with multifactorial wheezing, 77%-positive results revealed in 65% of patients indicated to high probability of asthma formation.

[Morphological index for prediction of cervix uteri cancer].

The aim of the research is evaluation of morphological parameters which would allow predicting cervix uteri cancer. The case histories of 505 patients (from 20 to 70 years old) with I-III clinical stages of primary cervical uteri cancer (PUC), which got surgical and combined treatment in oncological center in Batumi from 1970-2005 were evaluated. The factors that influence on the prognosis of PUC are revealed: cancer cell emboli in vessels of tumour stroma, sharpness of the tumour edges, the tumor tissue types, and the depth of invasion.
