EFFICACY OF COMBINATION OF TIOTROPIUM/OLODATEROL IN PATIENTS WITH COPD IN REAL CLINICAL PRACTICE.

Objective: The aim: Show the efficacy of the Tiotropium / olodaterol combination in real clinical practice.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: 100 patients with the diagnosis of COPD were included onto the study during the period of 2019-2020, an average age was 64.09±1.

Clinical course of COPD in patients with Arg16Gly (rs1042713) polymorphism of ADRB2 gene.

The ADBR2 gene has been studied for its possible relationship with the development and clinical course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including response to beta-2 agonists, with existing data being contentious on the subject. So, the purpose of this study was to look into the potential impact of the arginine-16-glycine (Arg16Gly) polymorphism on the clinical course and drug utilization in COPD patients. Data show that patients with Arg16Arg have a lower number of hospital admissions for exacerbations (p=0.

Subtropical and flower crops breeding at the Subtropical Scientific Centre.

This paper presents the results on the breeding work carried out by the Subtropical Scientific Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Currently, the Centre's breeders are doing a lot of work aimed at breeding new fine yielding cultivars of subtropical and flower crops that will be resistant to growing conditions; they include kaki persimmon, feijoa, mandarin, freesia, crown anemone, pelargonium and chrysanthemum. The sources of high-level priority traits in flower crops that are valuable for further breeding in order to improve decorative (colour, flower shape, inflorescence), economic and biological traits (flowering period, a large number of flowers in the inflorescence, storage period of cut flowers, disease resistance, high reproduction coefficient) were recorded.

Transferability of ISSR, SCoT and SSR Markers for × Ramat and Genetic Relationships Among Commercial Russian Cultivars.

Characterization of genetic diversity in germplasm collections requires an efficient set of molecular markers. We assessed the efficiency of 36 new SCoT markers, 10 new ISSR markers, and 5 microsatellites for the characterization of genetic diversity in chrysanthemum core collection of 95 accessions (Russian and foreign cultivars). Seven new SCoT (SCoT12, 20, 21, 23, 29, 31, 34) and six new ISSR markers ((GA)8T, (CT)8G, (CTTCA)3, (GGAGA)3, (TC)8C, (CT)8TG) were efficient for the genetic diversity analysis in × collection.

Determinants of smoking cessation and abstinence in a Russian smoking-cessation center.

Introduction: Smoking prevalence in Russia is one of the highest in the world. It leads to significant damage to the National Health Service. The purpose of the present research was to assess the effectiveness of a qualified smoking-cessation (SC) center in Moscow, and to identify the main determinants of smoking cessation.
