[PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SURGICAL TREATMENT OF COMPLICATIONS OF CROHN'S DISEASE IN CHILDREN].

Practical recommendations are presented Grade 4. The article covered all possible methods of surgery, depending on the type and severity of the disease. It is noted that, despite the need for surgery and reoperations high frequency in most patients with complicated Crohn's disease yet there is a significant improvement, and pain disappeared for a while.

[The dynamics of indicators of selenium, glutathione and anti-oxidant defense of blood in patients with anemic cardiomyopathy against the background of treatment with preparations of iron and selenium].

The study was carried out on samplings of 46 patients with asiderotic anemia of severe degree and complicated by cardiomyopathy and 16 healthy persons. The content of selenium was analyzed using I.I.

Microvascular function, metabolic syndrome, and novel risk factor status in women with cardiac syndrome X.

To characterize microvascular function, candidate risk pathways, and metabolic syndrome prevalence in women with cardiac syndrome X, 52 nondiabetic women with angiographically normal epicardial arteries but >1 mm of planar ST depression during exercise testing (patients) and 24 healthy controls of similar age were recruited. In addition to fasting blood samples and anthropometric measurements, forearm cutaneous microvascular function after iontophoresis of acetylcholine and sodium nitroprusside was assessed by laser Doppler imaging. Despite body mass index correction and a larger proportion on statin therapy, patients had high levels of insulin (p=0.

Elevated alanine aminotransferase predicts new-onset type 2 diabetes independently of classical risk factors, metabolic syndrome, and C-reactive protein in the west of Scotland coronary prevention study.

We examined the association of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) with features of the metabolic syndrome and whether it predicted incident diabetes independently of routinely measured factors in 5,974 men in the West of Scotland Coronary Prevention Study. A total of 139 men developed new diabetes over 4.9 years of follow-up.
