Predictors of Premature Ventricular Contractions Development in Patients With SARS-CoV-2 Infection.

Background: Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-positive patients often develop atrial fibrillation, premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), and conduction disorders. The manifestation of ventricular cardiac arrhythmias accentuates the risk of sudden cardiac death.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on the cohort of 1,614 patients admitted for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Significance of Hypoalbuminemia in the Development of Thromboembolic Complications in Severe Cases of SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infection.

Background: The course of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with the progression of a wide range of complications, among which thrombosis and thromboembolism are of particular importance. The significance of hypoalbuminemia in the development of thromboembolic complications (TECs) in patients with a severe course of COVID-19 is currently under active discussion. The objective of our study was to evaluate the significance of hypoalbuminemia in the development of TECs in patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection.

Neurophysiology and Psychopathology Underlying PTSD and Recent Insights into the PTSD Therapies-A Comprehensive Review.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a well-known psychiatric disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. Pharmacodynamic and cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBT) have been used to treat patients with PTSD. However, it remains unclear whether there are concurrent changes in psychopathological and neurophysiological factors associated with PTSD patients.

Titanium Nickelide in Midface Fractures Treatment.

Background: The question of reconstruction of human tissues and organs with the use of medical materials is still open, because of the accurate requirements for their biological and physical features. The aim of this study was to prove the efficiency of titanium nickelide constructors in treatment of isolated orbital floor fractures or combination with zygomatico-orbital complex fractures.

Methods: Patients with a fracture of zygomatico-orbital complex and/or low orbital floor (n = 44) carried out different treatments: in the first group, osteosynthesis and endoprosthesis with titanium nickelide structures; in the second group, titan mini-plates osteosynthesis; in the third group ('blow-out'), endoprosthesis with a titanium nickelide mesh; and in the fourth group ('blow-out'), conservative treatment and monitoring (archive data) ( > 0.

[Glioblastomas in patients with medulloblastomas after combined treatment].

Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common brain malignancy in children occurring in the posterior cranial fossa. This tumor is characterized by high risk of metastasis along the CSF pathways. Significant progress in research of this tumor and appropriate treatment is associated with determining the various molecular categories of primary medulloblastomas.
