Neutrophil Oxidized-Modified Proteins and Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Patients with Community-Acquired Pneumonia.

Materials And Methods: 51 patients with CAP were divided into 2 groups depending on the severity of the pathological process. The first group (I) consisted of 32 patients with moderate severity of pneumonia. The second group (II) consisted of 19 patients with severe pneumonia.

Characteristic of oxidative metabolism in patients with chronic kidney disease depending on etiological nosology.

Development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is accompanied by change in the oxidative metabolism. The aim of the study was to assess the parameters of oxidative stress in erythrocytes and plasma of patients with CKD 1 and 2 stages depending on the etiological nosology. Two groups were formed.

[Physical and chemical markers of chronic obstructive lung disease development in industrial workers].

The article demonstrates that patients with chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD) of both mixed and bronchitis forms with medium severity grade appeared to have 2 types of changes in morphologic types of serum faces. Patients with various clinical forms of severe COLD presented unidirectional change in morphologic types of serum faces. Patients with various forms of moderate COLD had one variant of morphologic types of serum faces was close to that in the patients with more severe clinical course--so that face can be considered as a "transitional form" between moderate and severe COLD.
