Military conflicts, terrorist attacks and wars around the world pose a wide range of questions to the medical community about providing medical care to military personnel and civilians with mine-explosive trauma, which is characterized by simultaneous damage of various anatomical areas, including the maxillofacial region. The purpose of this work was to describe a case from practice of treating a patient with a mine-explosive trauma, which manifested by a fracture of the right zygomatic-orbital complex and the upper jaw on the right. Using own case from practice, the authors showed that the treatment of patients with mine-explosive trauma of the maxillofacial region is long-term, multi-stage and should take place in a specialized hospital with the involvement of a team of multidisciplinary specialists.

The medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) is hypothesized to function as a cognitive map for memory-guided navigation. How this map develops during learning and influences memory remains unclear. By imaging MEC calcium dynamics while mice successfully learned a novel virtual environment over ten days, we discovered that the dynamics gradually became more spatially consistent and then stabilized.

The authors have analyzed the history of the diaphonization method, its advantages and disadvantages. Its advantages include the ability to study the internal anatomy without destroying the object, detailing structures, preserving samples for further research, and the possibility of combining with other modern research methods.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: An experiment was conducted on 48 mature male rats of the WAG population. All animals were divided into 4 groups (12 animals in each group).
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the level of ROS production by blood leukocytes of rats with PCOS under the conditions of intermittent cold exposure.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: In the study, 40 immature female rats of the WAG population at the age of 27 days with a body weight of 80-90 g were used. Five groups were formed (8 animals in each group).
Objective: The aim was to reveal the morphological features of the lungs in post-COVID-19 syndrome.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The material of the study was autopsy material - fragments of the lung tissue from 96 deceased (59 men and 37 women). During the lifetime, all patients had in anamnesis COVID-19 of varying severity, and after the treatment of this infection, they had various manifestations of respiratory failure until death.
Objective: Aim: To identify expert patterns in cases of improper medical care in obstetric practice based on the analysis of the materials of judicial and investigative cases initiated against obstetrician-gynaecologists in cases of improper performance of their professional duties, using the decision tree method.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: A retrospective review of all alleged medical malpractice cases (a total 350) between 2007 and 2016 handled at Ternopil Regional Bu¬reau of Forensic Medical Examination, Chernivtsi Regional Bureau of Forensic Medical Examination and Zhytomir Regional Bureau of Forensic Medical Examination (Ukraine) was performed.
Results: Results: Expert commissions confirmed various shortcomings and omissions in provision of medical care in 232 (72.
Differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is usually characterized by a harmless clinical behavior but in some cases it can manifest itself as a metastatic damage to the bone system. The authors reported case from their practice of an aggressive DTC course in a patient with insulin resistance, accompanied by the development of metastases in the bone system. The main goals of the patient's treatment at each stage of radioiodine therapy were to reduce the foci of metastatic bone damage in terms of their number and volume as well as insulin resistance as a risk factor affecting insulin-like growth factors.

The article describes biological and non-biological factors that affect the long-term stay of the implant in the bone under functional load, quality indicators of artificial teeth implantation. Instead of the term «osseointegration», the authors use the terms «histointegration» and «histodisintegration» defining them. The following concepts are used: time of histointegration achievement, histofunctional and histoaesthetic integration/disintegration, mechanical and biological stability/destability, integration/disintegration of implant and prosthetic structure, morphological and functional stability and destability of the implant.
