[The efficacy of tes-therapy for treatment of anxiety-like behavior and motor disorders in rats with an experimental model of parkinsonism].

Aim: To assess the efficacy of transcranial electrostimulation TES for treatmnet of anxiety-like behavior and motor disorders in rats with rotenone-induced parkinsonism.

Material And Methods: The study was performed on 30 mature male-rats. Animals were divided into following groups: control, intact rats (group 1); rats with an experimental model of parkinsonism without treatment (group 2); rats with an experimental model of parkinsonism, which had 7 sessions of TES-therapy (group 3), the number of rats in each group was 10.

Сapsule endoscopy for diagnosis of celiac disease.

In this review we analyzed the guidelines for diagnosis and management of celiac disease, as well as the recent studies published on this issue. Capsule endoscopy could be used in patients unwilling or unable to undergo conventional endoscopy, in patients who have discordant results between serological and histopathological investigation, in patients with nonresponsive or refractory celiac disease.

p-Carborane Conjugation in Radical Anions of Cage-Cage and Cage-Phenyl Compounds.

Optical electron transfer (intervalence) transitions in radical anions of p-carborane oligomers attest to delocalization of electrons between two p-carboranes cages or a p-carborane and a phenyl ring. Oligomers of the 12 vertex p-carborane (CBH) cage, [12], with up to 3 cages were synthesized, as well as p-carboranes with one or two trimethylsilylphenyl groups, [6], attached to the carbon termini. Pulse radiolysis in tetrahydrofuran produced radical anions, determined redox potentials by equilibria and measured their absorption spectra.

[Results of hyperfractionated radiation therapy used in combination with lomustin in malignant gliomas of the brain].

The postoperative use of lomustin, a nitrosourea agent, was investigated for its impact on the efficiency of hyperfractionated radiation therapy performed in patients with glioblastoma and anaplastic astrocytoma of the brain. A total of 35 patients (26 and 9 patients with glioblastoma and anaplastic astrocytoma, respectively) were followed up. Radiation therapy was performed, by using a total focal dose of 65 Gy in 2 steps or a single dose of 1.
