Bibliometric Analysis of the Role of Occludin in the Pathogenesis of Stroke.

Over the past decade, there has been a notable surge in research dedicated to unraveling the intricate role of tight junction proteins in blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage associated with ischemic stroke. This bibliometric analysis explores the expansive landscape of occludin research, a key tight junction protein, during the years 2000-2023, shedding light on the global scientific contributions, collaborations, and emerging trends in this critical area of stroke pathogenesis. China and the United States emerge as significant contributors, underscoring their prominence in advancing our understanding of tight junction proteins.

Study of the hepcidin level in pregnant women with and without anemia.

Background And Aim: Currently, a wide range of laboratory markers characterizing iron metabolism is available to clinicians. However, they are mainly limited by determining the hemoglobin content, iron concentration and erythrocyte morphology, which makes it impossible to differentiate iron deficiency anemia from other hypochromic anemia forms. The study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of hepcidin as a ferrokinetics marker under the development of anemia during pregnancy.

KAZAKH ADAPTATION OF THE MONTREAL COGNITIVE ASSESSMENT (MOCA).

The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a brief cognitive evaluation tool that has been developed for screening of patients for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). MCI is a recognized high-risk state for Alzheimer's disease development. The aim of the present study was to create a Kazakh-language adaptation of the original version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (version 7.

Successful Correction of Postinfarction Interventricular Septum Rupture Diagnosed Online During the COVID-19 Pandemic (Clinical Case).

Postinfarction interventricular septum defect is a rare, but very serious and sometimes fatal, complication of acute myocardial infarction. This article describes a clinical case of online diagnosis of a late-stage myocardial infarction and the subsequent successful endovascular repair of a postinfarction ventricular septum defect with a Myval™ occluder.

Effect of an educational intervention on the number potential drug-drug interactions.

Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate effect of an Educational intervention on the number Potential Drug-Drug Interactions in the Emergency Hospital.

Methods: The prevalence and structure of Major Drug-Drug Interactions at Emergency care Hospitals of Aktobe, Uralsk, Atyrau cities (Kazakhstan) were studied (pharmacoepidemiological, cross-sectional study). Educational interventions were developed and implemented to improve pharmacotherapy in the Cardiology Department of the Aktobe Emergency Hospital, followed by an assessment of their effect.

Gene polymorphism of CYP2C19*2, *3 and CYP3A4*1B and early stent thrombosis: case reports and literature review.

We present two clinical cases of acute and subacute coronary artery stent thrombosis in patients treated at the Department of Interventional Cardiology in Aktobe, Kazakhstan. Our results draw attention to the impact of CYP3A4*1B on the clinical effect of clopidogrel during dual antiplatelet therapy after PCI. The genotyping performed at the Laboratory of Molecular Cardiology of Institute of Cardiology of Lithuanian University of Health Sciences in Lithuania revealed that both patients were homozygous carriers of CYP3A4*1B*1B.
