Aggressiveness and age of manifestation of medullary thyroid cancer depend on the risk level of germline RET mutations. For high-risk mutations, preventive thyroidectomy is recommended at young age. In recent years, endoscopic operations for thyroid cancer were introduced in clinical practice.

Background: Selpercatinib, a highly selective, potent RET inhibitor, has shown efficacy in advanced -mutant medullary thyroid cancer in a phase 1-2 trial, but its efficacy as compared with approved multikinase inhibitors is unclear.

Methods: We conducted a phase 3, randomized trial comparing selpercatinib as first-line therapy with the physician's choice of cabozantinib or vandetanib (control group). Eligible patients had progressive disease documented within 14 months before enrollment.

There was performed a comparative analysis of the indicators of immediate and long-term results of chemoradiotherapy in 342 patients with squamous cell oropharyngeal carcinoma depending on hemoglobin level before and after treatment. In patients with normal level of hemoglobin a rate of response to treatment was almost two times higher than that of patients with anemia (75,3% vs. 23,5%) and complete regression of tumors was detected by more than three times often (65,4% vs.

The paper analyzes the effectiveness of external beam radiation therapy of medullary thyroid cancer in 38 patients. The radiation therapy of the first phase combined therapy was performed in 9 (24 %) patients: after treatment, 5 patients had a partial response, 4--stabilization. The radiation therapy of the second phase combined therapy was performed in 27 (71%) patients: after treatment, 2 patients had a complete response (booster method), 5--partial response, 4--stabilization.

The analysis of the effectiveness of treatment was carried out in 257 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the mucous membranes of the oral cavity and oropharynx. Two methods of irradiation were used in combination with concurrent polychemotherapy: standard radiotherapy (2 Gy 5 times a week) and radiotherapy in non-traditional modes of fractionation with uneven breaking of the daily dose into two fractions (1 Gy + 1.5 Gy or 1 Gy + 2 Gy with 4-hour intervals) to a focal dose of 60 Gy.

The role of RET and GFRA1 germline polymorphisms in predisposition to sporadic medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) and polymorphisms' modulation effect on clinical features of inherited and sporadic MTC were investigated. Blood samples from 67 MTC patients (22 hereditary and 45 sporadic), 3 asymptomatic mutant RET gene carriers and 178 ethnically matched healthy control individuals were tested. Screening of RET exons and portion of introns 1, 8, 10, 13, 14, 15, 16 and GFRA1 5'-UTR was performed by means of direct sequencing and PCR-RFLP.

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of cervical lymph nodes was carried out in 22 patients with suspected metastatic involvement with medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTS). It was followed by cytopathological examination of aspirates and assay of of thyrocalcitonin (TCT) in fine-needle washings. TCT determinations proved highly informative as well as significantly high in all seven cases of MTS involvement (26-8,484.

A model study of the motion of Na+ ions in the cavity of membrane gramicidin channels was performed by the methods of quantum mechanics. An approximation of the distribution of the electrostatic potential along the channel axis, determined by charges on the atoms of the gramicidin A molecule, was obtained. The energy distribution and the wave functions for the stationary states of the ions were determined.

The orientation interaction of a molecule of a local anesthetic with a biomembrane and cell-like liquid was studied, based on the model of adsorption of the anesthetic from a cell-like solution on the surface of a biomembrane for compounds of the trimecaine series. A statistically significant correlation equation was obtained, which relates the minimum blocking concentration to the projection of the dipole moment of the anesthetic on the plane X(1)0X2 of the principal axes of inertia. A model is prosed according to which the "anesthetic-biomembrane" interaction is most effective the molecule of the anesthetic rotates around the axis of the maximum moment of inertia.

Theoretical analysis and mathematical modelling of conductor anesthesia has been performed. It has been established that mathematical models explicity taking into account the form and the size of molecules (through molar volumes) and the energy of intermolecular interaction with biomembrane surface of a nerve fiber (through normal boiling temperatures) are the most close to electrophysiology data obtained by measuring of minimal blocking concentrations of anesthetics in inter- or intracell solutions, causing complete isolation of a pain spike in the fiber. Computation based on an improved additive systematics produced physical-chemical descriptors for construction of mathematical models.

The study was made of the effect which interleukin receptor antagonist protein (IRAP) and bovine serum have on interleukin-1 alpha (IL1a) activity in cartilage culture of young bulls. It was established that IL1a leads to cartilage degradation as shown by an increase of sulphated glycosaminoglycans (sGAG) in culture medium and their decrease in tissue, inhibition of proteoglycan (PG) synthesis by chondrocytes. This effect of IL1a is suppressed by IRAP.
