[The role of expression of monocarboxylates of the first and fourth types (MCT1, MCT4) by tumor and stromal cells of prostate cancer in determining the prognosis and the efficiency of definitive treatment].

Aim: A search for new methods for diagnosing clinically significant prostate cancer is of importance due to the insufficient accuracy of modern methods in detecting aggressive tumors. One of the promising opportunities for the early diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer is the assessment of the glycolytic profile of the tumor by determining the expression of monocarboxylates (MCT) types 1 and 4 in tumor cells, as well as in adjacent stromal cells.

Materials And Methods: An analysis of patients of who underwent radical prostatectomy at the Institute of Urology and Reproductive Health of Sechenov University from 2015 to 2017 was carried out.

Streamer self-focusing in an external longitudinal magnetic field.

The numerical simulation of the development of a streamer discharge in a gap with an external longitudinal magnetic field was used to demonstrate the self-focusing of such discharges. Self-focusing is caused by a sharp deceleration of the radial ionization wave due to a change in the electron energy distribution function, a decrease in the average electron energy, the rate of gas ionization, and the electron mobility in crossed electric and magnetic fields as compared to the case of the discharge development without a magnetic field. The self-focusing effect of a streamer discharge in an external longitudinal magnetic field is observed for both positive and negative pulse polarities.

Using the Method of "Optical Biopsy" of Prostatic Tissue to Diagnose Prostate Cancer.

The possibilities of using optical spectroscopy methods in the differential diagnosis of prostate cancer were investigated. Analytical discrimination models of Raman spectra of prostate tissue were constructed by using the projections onto latent structures data analysis(PLS-DA) method for different wavelengths of exciting radiation-532 and 785 nm. These models allowed us to divide the Raman spectra of prostate cancer and the spectra of hyperplasia sites for validation datasets with the accuracy of 70-80%, depending on the specificity value.

Treatment of high fracture risk patients in routine clinical practice.

Unlabelled: A retrospective cohort study determined the high incidence of recurrent fractures in osteoporotic patients with high fracture risk during the observation. The strategy of starting treatment with more potent regimens (zoledronic acid, denosumab and/or teriparatide) seems to have the best secondary fracture prevention efficacy.

Objective: This paper describes the various medical therapy regimens prescribed to osteoporotic patients with high fracture risk and the result of treatment.

Reconstruction of Fingers Using Skin-Bone Grafts with Microvascular Anastomoses.

Unlabelled: was to present a clinical and anatomical rationale for transplantation of skin-bone grafts with microvascular anastomoses for treating terminal and segmental defects of the hand and fingers.

Materials And Methods: Finger and metacarpal bones were reconstructed in 25 hands of 25 patients by transplanting skin-bone tubular fragments with microvascular anastomoses. Transplants from the second metatarsal bone (n=22) and fibula (n=3) were used.
