Detection of Cervical Lesions and Cancer in Air-Dried Cytologic Smears by Combined Analysis of mRNA and miRNA Expression Levels.

Cervical cancer screening is based on cytologic analysis and high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) testing, each having their drawbacks. Implementation of new biomarker-based methods may improve screening accuracy. Here, the levels of 25 microRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) and 12 mRNAs involved in cervical carcinogenesis in 327 air-dried Papanicolaou-stained cervical smears from patients with cervical precancerous lesions, cancer, or without the disease were estimated by real-time PCR.

[Peculiarities of barbituric acid derivatives acute poisoning clinical picture in patients of elderly and senile age and their therapy.].

In this article materials obtained during treatment of 61 patients with acute poisoning with phenobarbital, which is part of Corvalol and Valocordin, are presented. It has already been established that phenobarbital acute poisoning in elderly and senile patients is accompanied by more frequent development of central nervous system, respiratory system (pneumonia) and cardiovascular system complications, which cause more severe clinical course and risk of an adverse outcome of acute poisoning. This research has shown that for hypoxia correction during phenobarbital acute poisoning in elderly and senile patients it is advisable to include Reamberin in the treatment regimen, which has no adverse effects on central haemodynamic parameters and effectively reduces severity of metabolic disorders.

Detection of high-grade neoplasia in air-dried cervical PAP smears by a microRNA-based classifier.

Recent studies have shown that changes in the expression levels of certain microRNAs correlate with the degree of severity of cervical lesions. The aim of the present study was to develop a microRNA-based classifier for the detection of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN ≥2) in cytological samples from patients with different high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) viral loads. For this purpose, raw RT-qPCR data for 25 candidate microRNAs, U6 snRNA and human DNA in air-dried PAP smears from 174 women with different cervical cytological diagnoses, 144 of which were HR-HPV-positive [40 negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy (NILM), 34 low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (L-SIL), 57 high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (H-SIL), 43 invasive cancers], were statistically processed.

[Results of multicenter study of efficacy and safety of divaza in the treatment of the asthenic and mild to moderate cognitive disorders in elderly and senile subjects].

Aim: To study the efficacy and safety of divasa in elderly and senile subjects with asthenic and mild to moderate cognitive disorders.

Material And Methods: The study included 126 patients with clinically significant asthenia and mild to moderate cognitive disorders. Asthenia was assessed with MFI-20, cognitive disorders with MMSE, clock drawing test and verbal association test.

[The use of reamberin in combined intensive care of acute poisoning].

This review is focused on the substrate antihypoxant reamberin used in intensive therapy of acute poisoning with special reference to the mechanisms of its action consisting in the reduction of the severity of metabolic disorders manifested as a decrease of tissue hypoxia, recovery of antioxidant defense and suppression of the activity of lipid peroxidation and endotoxicosis. The antihyhypoxant activity of reamberin is apparent as the reduction of the hypoxic brain lesions in patients with acute poisoning which leads to a significant improvement in the clinical course of acute poisoning and decreases the number of adverse outcomes.
