Complex trait susceptibilities and population diversity in a sample of 4,145 Russians.

The population of Russia consists of more than 150 local ethnicities. The ethnic diversity and geographic origins, which extend from eastern Europe to Asia, make the population uniquely positioned to investigate the shared properties of inherited disease risks between European and Asian ancestries. We present the analysis of genetic and phenotypic data from a cohort of 4,145 individuals collected in three metro areas in western Russia.

Electrospray mass spectrometry with controlled in-source atomization (ERIAD) as a promising elemental method: evaluation of analytical features.

Electrospray ionization with controlled in-source fragmentation and atomization (ERIAD) is promising method for mass-spectrometric elemental analysis. This paper concerns the main analytical features and necessary instrumentation for ERIAD. The method is shown to be effective for more than 70 elements of the periodic table: those that present as cations in a water solution.

[Opportunities of intraoperative hyperthermic perfusion application in treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis].

Normothermic intraperitoneal perfusion (IPEP) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal perfusion (HIPEP) were performed in 44 Wistar female rats with transplanted ascites tumor of the ovary. Opportunities of intraoperative hyperthermic perfusion application in treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis. Antineoplastic affects were evaluated according to increase of animals' survival.

[Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in the treatment for recurrent ovarian cancer].

There are presented data of literature and own observations of the treatment for recurrent ovarian cancer using hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion. The possible complications during hyperthermic chemoperfusion are discussed and the effectiveness of the method is analyzed. Further studies are needed to obtain more certain criteria for abdominal chemotherapy in these patients.

[Antitumor effect of dioxadet in intraperitoneal chemoperfusion treatment for advanced ovarian cancer in experimental setting].

The study of antitumor efficacy of dioxadet in chemoperfusion treatment of ascitic ovarian cancer was carried out in 125 Wistar female rats. Ovarian cancer was inoculated intraperitoneally at a number 1x10(7) tumor cells per rat. Intraperitoneal administration of dioxadet as well as chemoperfusion was performed once in 48 hours after the ovarian cancer inoculation.
