Our aim was to study the association of endothelial dysfunction biomarkers with cirrhosis manifestations, bacterial translocation, and gut microbiota taxa. The fecal microbiome was assessed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Plasma levels of nitrite, big endothelin-1, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), presepsin, and claudin were measured as biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction, bacterial translocation, and intestinal barrier dysfunction.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of individuals with state health insurance at the Moscow Ambulatory Center. The cohorts included 41,444 persons vaccinated with Sputnik V, 15,566 survivors of COVID-19, and 71,377 non-immune persons.
Background: The clinical efficacy and safety of vaccination against novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in patients with cirrhosis have not been evaluated yet.
Aim: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of vaccination against COVID-19 in patients with cirrhosis.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with cirrhosis.

Unlabelled: The urgency of the problem of wound healing is not in doubt, given the global trend of an increase in the number of operations and injuries with skin damage, as well as the lack of universal means of treating wounds.
Study Objective: To compare the effectiveness of the developed drugs, smart polymeric nano-drug with cerium oxide nanoparticles (SPN), and smart polymeric nano-drug in combination with mesenchymal stem cells (SPN + SC) on the healing process of skin wounds.
Material And Methods: An experimental study was carried out using Wistar rats of post-reproductive age, which had dermis and epidermis removed on their backs.
Purpose: To study the effects of inflammation on the healing process of rats' acute skin wounds during treatment with different injections.
Methods: The study was carried out on Wistar rats, on which square wounds were simulated in the back region. Four groups of wounds were studied.
