JUSTIFICATION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM OF PREVENTION OF HYPERTENSION DISEASE IN MEDICAL WORKERS.

In the current conditions of the Covid-19 pandemic, which has largely affected medical personnel, the issue of preserving their health and working capacity has become more relevant than ever. In recent years, the number of medical personnel has decreased significantly (almost by a quarter in 5 years), and the workforce has aged even more (persons of senior age make up more than 20%). Analysis of the structure of morbidity among medical workers indicates its nature caused by stress, especially in relation to hypertension, heart attacks, strokes, neuroses, etc.

[Oxidative stress development in the tissues of salivary glands of rats in conditions of monosodium glutamate-induced obesity].

Pathogenic mechanisms of damage of salivary glands under obesity are an insufficiently studied problem of modem medicine. On experimental model of obesity induced by monosodium glutamate, free-radical processes and antioxidant defense system were studied in the tissues of salivary glands of rats. Under experimental obesity induced by monosodium glutamate there is a significant increase of the content of thio-barbituric acid reactive substances and a significant decrease in the activity of superoxide dismutase and catalase.
