Surgical Treatment of Primary Cardiac Tumors in Children Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

This systematic review sought to investigate the current evidence regarding surgical management of primary cardiac tumors in children. Twenty-four studies were deemed eligible, reporting on 713 pediatric patients. Cumulative 30-day mortality rate was 5.

Non-invasive evaluation of the kinematic activity of the intact left ventricle of the heart.

Vector analysis of the movement of the epicardium has been used to calculate the energy efficiency of different parts of the left cardiac ventricle. The protocol based on the results of these calculations would allow the calculation of the potential power of myocardial contraction.

[META-ANALYSIS OF CLINICAL STUDIES ON THE USE OF STATINS FOR PREVENTION OF ATRIAL FIBRILLATION SOON AFTER CORONARY BYPASS SURGERY].

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) develops in the early postoperative period in each third patient undergoing coronary bypass surgery (CBPS). Multifactorial pathogenesis of postoperative AF is unclear. The concept of postoperative inflammation as a potential basic mechanism of this condition has been implied in many studies.

Experimental Study of Kinematic Activity of Left Ventricular Myocardium.

A method of invasive and non-invasive examination of epicardial motion was tested on domestic pigs (n=15). The invasive study employed a contact kinematic sensor of the epicardial wall motion, which determined the amplitude, velocity, and angular parameters of examined epicardial region. A non-invasive assessment of the epicardial kinematics based on echocardiographic 2D Velocity Vector Imaging and ECG recoding used to determine the heart electrical axis.

[A NEW APPROACH TO TREATMENT LIVER CIRRHOSIS IN CONNECTION WITH INTESTINAL DYSBIOSIS].

In order to increase the effectiveness of treatment of the liver cirrhosis were examined 65 patients, we studied the effect on the features flow of intestine microbiocenosis and were are included to the combined treatment the synbiotic medications "Bifilakt extra". Inclusion to the combined treatment of the examined patients with liver cirrhosis synbiotic medications "Bifilakt extra" probably led to better reduction of subjective and objective signs of cirrhosis and intensity of functional biochemical syndromes, symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy.
