Background: A pressing concern involves the efficient and intensive treatment of complications arising from malignant tumors in the hepatopancreatoduodenal region. This matter is closely tied to rectifying energy deficits, addressing insufficient body weight, and restoring proper metabolic processes. This is particularly crucial post-surgery, as the process is hindered by significant hypercatabolism, heightened nutritional requirements, and the presence of intoxication syndrome.

Material And Methods: The study included 10 patients (20 phakic eyes) with RP. Mean age was 27±18.
The study of the serum levels of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases type 1 (TIMP1) was conducted involving 108 patients aged over 65, with calcinosis and/or calcific aortic valve (AV) stenosis. The purpose of the study was to identify the molecular and genetic markers responsible for the development of senile aortic stenosis. Besides, there was also typing of polymorphic loci of MMP9 gene A8202G (rs1169732) and TIMP1 gene C536T(rs11551797) performed.

Material And Methods: A total of 20 patients (40 eyes) aged from 16 to 40 years (28.4 ± 8.
