[Thrombosed aneurysm of the internal carotid artery, complicated by the development of ischemic stroke followed by subarachnoid hemorrhage].

Thrombosed cerebral aneurysms can cause embolism of the distal cerebral arteries and manifest as the development of ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack. As a rule, thromboembolic complications develop with giant and large aneurysms, but they are also possible with sizes less than 1 cm. In case of such complications, according to the standards of treatment of ischemic stroke, antithrombotic therapy is necessary, which is associated with the risk of rupture of the aneurysm.

Transcriptomic Analysis Followed by the Isolation of Extracellular Bacteriolytic Proteases from VKM B-2533.

The aim of the study was to search for, isolate and characterize new bacteriolytic enzymes that show promising potential for their use in medicine, agriculture and veterinary. Using a transcriptomic analysis, we annotated in VKM B-2533 the genes of known bacteriolytic and antifungal enzymes, as well as of antibiotics, whose expression levels increased when cultivated on media conducive to the production of antimicrobial agents. The genes of the secreted putative bacteriolytic proteases were also annotated.

Modeling of Chronic Lung Inflammation in Rats by Repeated Intratracheal Administration of LPS.

A model of a chronic lung inflammation in SPF Sprague-Dawley rats was developed by repeated intratracheal administration of LPS in a dose of 0.4 mg/kg. On day 22 of the study, male rats treated with LPS have relative monocytopenia and reduced mean concentration of hemoglobin in the erythrocyte and the mean platelet volume in comparison with the control animals (saline).

Efficacy of Bur. extract in ethylene glycol-induced urolithiasis model in SD rats.

The development of new herbal preparations for the treatment of urolithiasis is an urgent task of medical science. Ficus have attracted the attention of pharmacologists due to a wide range of biological properties, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal activity. We studied the effectiveness of Bur.

Rectal cancer at the peritoneal reflection. Preoperative MRI accuracy and histophatologic correlation. Prospective study.

Introduction: To investigate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) accuracy for determining the location of rectal tumors with respect to the peritoneal reflection (PR) and its potential involvement.

Methods: Prospective study of 161 patients ongoing surgery for rectal cancer. A double-ink method has been aplied to examine surgical specimen, orange ink for the serosal surface and indian ink for the mesorrectal margin, and assess preoperative MRI accuracy.
