Analysis and Assessment of the Usefulness of Recycled Plastic Materials for the Production of Airfield Geocell.

The load-bearing capacity of natural airfield pavement has a direct impact on the safety of air operations. Unfortunately, the field tests often indicate that the load-bearing capacity of natural airfield pavements is not sufficient. In this case, it is necessary to reinforce them in order to meet the requirements set out in international documents.

Serum and peritoneal fluid concentrations of soluble human leukocyte antigen, tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 10 in patients with selected ovarian pathologies.

Background: Although immune system plays a key role in the pathogenesis of both endometriosis and ovarian cancer, its function is different. Therefore, we hypothesized, that selected immune parameters can serve as diagnostic markers of these two conditions. The aim of this study was to compare serum and peritoneal fluid concentrations of sHLA-G, IL-10 and TNF-alpha in women with selected ovarian pathologies: benign serous cysts, endometrioma and malignant tumors.

Changes in the concentration of sHLA-I and selected cytokines in pregnancy complicated by antiphospholipid syndrome.

Objectives: To compare the serum concentrations of the selected cytokines from subsequent trimesters of antiphospholipid syndrome complicated pregnancies.

Material And Methods: This study included 43 pregnant women (23 patients diagnosed with antiphospholipid syndrome and 20 controls). IL-2R, IL-4, IL-10, INF-gamma, TNF-alpha, and class I sHLA concentrations were analyzed by ELISA in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd trimester

Results: INF-gamma levels were below the method detection threshold and therefore were not included in the final analysis.
