This paper is devoted to the issue of using laser (lidar) sensing to determine wind speed and direction when solving practical problems during the analysis of meteorological conditions in the area around spaceports. This issue is relevant both for making decisions on the possibility of a safe launch of a launch vehicle and for conducting search and rescue operations using groups of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles. Based on numerical and experimental modeling, it is shown that lidars provide highly accurate measurements of wind speed profiles and allow for the determination of weak wind shear in vertical and horizontal directions.

To identify new criteria for predicting the outcome of pregnancy in women with threatened preterm labor based on the establishment of the characteristics of differentiation and functional activity of memory T-cells in the population of CD8 + T-lymphocytes. The study involved 56 women with threatened preterm labor at 22-34 weeks of pregnancy. Depending on the outcome of pregnancy, patients were divided into 3 groups: Group I included 22 women by premature labor; group II - 34 women whose pregnancy ended by deliver at term.

To determine the level of CD20 + IL-10 + B-lymphocytes in pregnant women with the threat of termination of pregnancy at 5-12 weeks and recurrent miscarriage in history and compare the data obtained with the end of gestation. A survey of 65 women at a gestational age of 5-12 weeks was carried out. The main group consisted of 33 women with a threatening recurrent miscarriage at the time of the examination, the comparison group consisted of 10 pre-pregnant women with a threatening sporadic miscarriage at the time of the examination, the control group consisted of 22 pregnant women without signs of a threatening miscarriage.

Objective: The growth of uterine leiomyomas is regulated by progesterone, although the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood.

Methods: Primary leiomyoma cells were isolated by standard method from 16 samples of uterine leiomyoma tissue. Uterine leiomyoma explants and primary leiomyoma cell cultures were exposed to progesterone in concentrations of 0.
