Quantitative morphological analysis of age structural changes in prostate of experimental animals with ethanol poisoning.

Objective: Aim: To find out the age remodeling of the structural components of the prostate gland at alcohol poisoning using quantitative morphological analysis.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The structure of the prostate gland of 4 white male rats groups were morphologically investigated. The 1 group included 30 control intact animals aged 8 months, the 2-nd group - 30 rats aged 24 months, the 3-rd group - 30 8-month-old animals with ethanol intoxication, and the 4-th group included 30 24-month-old rats with the specified simulated pathology.

QUANTITATIVE MORPHOLOGICAL FEATURES OF THE STRUCTURAL REARRANGEMENT OF THE VENOUS BLOOD VESSELS OF THE PROSTATE GLAND IN POST-RESECTION PORTAL HYPERTENSION.

Objective: Aim: Using quantitative morphological methods to study the peculiarities of the structural reconstruction of the venous bad of the prostate at the conditions of post-resection portal hypertension.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: Morphologically, the venous bed of the prostate of 15 intact white rats, 30 animals with post-resection portal hypertension, 17 rats with a combination of post-resection portal hypertension with hepatargia, enteral, cardiac, and renal insufficiency was studied. Rats were slaughtered one month after the start of the experiment by bloodletting under general thiopental anesthesia.

Diagnostic chemoresistant mycobacterium tuberculosis in the ternopil region of Ukraine.

Objective: The aim: To analyze the changes in indicators of tuberculosis mycobacteria sensitivity to anti-mycobacterial drugs over the past nine years in Ternopol region (Ukraine) and to develop recommendations for the use of drug combinations in this region.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The medical examinations were carried out in the Clinical and Diagnostic Laboratory of Ternopil Regional Tuberculosis Hospital during 2007-2017. Sensitivity analysis was carried out on a solid Löwenstein-Jensen medium and in liquid Meedlebrook medium using automatic bacteriological BACTEC 1443 tests with addition to the media of first line anti-TB drugs.

Laboratory Diagnostics of Primary Hyperaldosteronism and its Peculiarities (Literature Review).

The final stage of the diagnostic of primary hyperaldosteronism is to identify the causes of excessive secretion of aldosterone and determination of its variants. Based on the analysis of literature data, the diagnostic value, sensitivity and specificity of the methods of radiation diagnostics for primary hyperaldosteronism were assessed: ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, photon emission tomography, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, scintigraphy with iodine radiopharmaceuticals. The causes of false-positive and false-negative evaluations of changes in adrenal glands in the application of these diagnostics have been analyzed.
