Real-life functioning in women with schizophrenia living in residential facilities: Gender-based comparison.

Introduction: Despite many patients with schizophrenia being able to achieve good functional outcomes, the number of patients with poor functional outcome estimates at over 25 percent. One of the wider constructs, reflecting functional outcomes in schizophrenia, is real-life functioning, whose key domains include ability to live relatively autonomously, productive activity and social interaction. Negative symptoms are seen among independent predictors of real-life functioning.

[Activity of the Russian antitumor compound chlonisol in models of eyelid tumors (experimental study)].

Unlabelled: Eyelid tumors are the most common neoplasms in everyday ophthalmic practice and cover a wide range of benign and malignant lesions. Surgical methods, cryodestruction, laser therapy and radiation therapy are used in the treatment of malignant eyelid tumors. Chemotherapy does not occupy a prominent place in the treatment of malignant eyelid tumors, its use is limited to sensitive tumors.

Geochemistry and therapeutic properties of Caucasian mineral waters: a review.

The Caucasian mineral water (CMW) region is a unique area where mineral waters differ by their chemical composition and balneological properties. The presence of a wide range of mineral waters with various ions and gas components and different genesis and their therapeutic properties in the restricted area is explained by complicated geological and tectonic settings. The dominant type of mineral water in the CMW region is CO-bearing water with HSiO and HBO as the specific components.

Diversity, Abundance, and Some Characteristics of Bacteria Isolated from Earth Material Consumed by Wild Animals at Kudurs in the Sikhote-Alin Mountains, Russia.

In this work, geochemical and microbiological studies were performed at kudurs in the southeastern part of the Sikhote-Alin mountain range and in the Sikhote-Alin Nature Reserve located in Primorsky Krai, Russia. It was found that the earth material eaten by wild animals in both sites is represented by clay-zeolite tuffs of dacite-rhyolite composition. In the earth material, Na is predominant in bioavailable macronutrients and Zn, light lanthanides, and Y in trace elements.
