Interaction between age and gender on survival outcomes in extramedullary multiple myeloma over the past two decades.

Background: Extramedullary multiple myeloma (MM) (EMM) is a rare and aggressive subentity of MM that can be present at diagnosis or develop anytime during the disease course. There is a paucity of data on the clinical characteristics and overall epidemiology of EMM. Furthermore, there is a scarcity of data on how the interaction of age and gender influences the survival of EMM.

Synthesis of cinnamoyl and hydroxycinnamoyl amino acid conjugates and evaluation of their antioxidant activity.

Fifteen amides of cinnamic, ferulic and sinapic acids with natural and unnatural C-protected amino acids have been synthesized. The amides (E)-N-(feruloyl)-L-tyrosine methyl ester (10), (E)-N-(feruloyl)-L-phenylalanine t-butyl ester (11), (E)-N-(sinapoyl)-L-tyrosine methyl ester (13) and (E)-N-(sinapoyl)-L-phenylalanine t-butyl ester (15) with a free carboxyl group of amino acids have been found in nature. The rest of the compounds are unknown.

[Hyperbaric oxygenation as a part of the treatment of chronic ulcerohemorrhagic colitis].

34 patients with chronic ulcerohemorrhagic colitis in exacerbation were treated with hyperbaric oxygenation in addition to the routine therapy. Two chambers model "Dräger" 1000 and 1200 were used. The total course of treatment included 10-12 seances with 60-75 min.

[Effect of slaughterhouse capacity on the hygienic production of beef].

Studied was the effect of the capacity of a meat producing enterprise on the hygiene in the production of beef. It was found that beef produced at the small regional slaughterhouses remained 1.29 to 3.

[Chemical composition of poultry livers].

Investigations were carried out on the basic and mineral composition of the liver of slaughtered birds. It was found that the water content of the liver depended on the age and sex, with broilers it being 73.09 g%, with laying hens--72.
