Rupr. et Maxim.: Supercritical CO Extraction and Mass Spectrometric Characterization of Chemical Constituents.

Three types of extraction were used to obtain biologically active substances from the heartwood of : supercritical CO extraction, maceration with EtOH, and maceration with MeOH. The supercritical extraction method proved to be the most effective type of extraction, giving the highest yield of biologically active substances. Several experimental conditions were investigated in the pressure range of 50-400 bar, with 2% of ethanol as co-solvent in the liquid phase at a temperature in the range of 31-70 °C.

[Multicenter study of gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms prevalence in outpatients in Russia].

Background: Recently, there has been an increase in the prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in Northern Europe, North America and East Asia. However data on GERD prevalence in Russian population are very limited.

Aim: To determine the prevalence of GERD among the population of Russia, the clinical spectrum of GERD symptoms, the main drugs used for GERD treatment, and the rate of their administration.

[Metabolic characteristics, nutritional status and behavior factors in people with obesity, working at industrial plant].

An obesity is the topical problem worldwide, because excessive weight is the reason of metabolic changes that lead to development of serious chronic non-communicable diseases. The examination was aimed to assess clinical and metabolic health, nutritional status and behavior risk factors of obesity in people, working at the industrial plant. .
