USE OF VOLUME-STABLE COLLAGEN MATRIX FOR SOFT TISSUE AUGMENTATION AT TEETH AND DENTAL IMPLANTS SITE.

The aim of this clinical report is to demonstrate the capabilities and the results of a porcine collagen matrix application to increase the soft tissue volume in the area of placed implant at 3.1 site and of implant-supported cantilever prosthesis at 3.2 site.

[Multimodal therapeutic strategies in the treatment of cerebrovascular disease].

The review presents the scientific substantiation of the relationship between age-related cerebrovascular changes and dysregulation of cerebral perfusion, blood-brain barrier (BBB) function and neurovascular units. The ischemic cascade in cerebrovascular disease (CVD) is considered, the main links of which are glutamate excitoxicosis, oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. Endothelial dysfunction and increased BBB permeability play an important role in the development of neuroinflammation.

How the COVID-19 pandemic affects transgender health care - A cross-sectional online survey in 63 upper-middle-income and high-income countries.

Background: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, access to medical care is restricted for nearly all non-acute conditions. Due to their status as a vulnerable social group and the inherent need for transition-related treatments, transgender people are assumed to be affected particularly severely by the restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: As an ad hoc collaboration between researchers, clinicians and 23 community organizations, we developed a web-based survey in German that was translated into 26 languages.

[Review of clinical guidelines for the treatment and prevention of ischemic stroke].

One of the leading causes of death, disability and severe maladaptation of patients is ischemic stroke, which accounts for about 80% of all types of acute cerebrovascular accidents. At the same time, approximately / of the patients show residual effects of cerebral circulation disorders of varying severity. Currently, the problem of ischemic stroke attracts great attention and international and domestic recommendations developed for the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of stroke patients are one of the aspects of work in this area.

[The effect of cholesterol on the electrokinetic properties of erythrocyte membranes in chronic cerebral ischemia].

Aim: To determine the effects of total plasma cholesterol on the electrokinetic properties of erythrocyte membranes of healthy volunteers and patients with chronic cerebral ischemia (CCI).

Material And Methods: Authors studied the erythrocytes from venous blood of 95 patients with CCI and 54 healthy people (controls). To perform an electrophoretic cell analysis of erythrocytes, we used the shorthand method of computer microelectrophoresis.
