Molecular-genetic characteristics of hmgb1 mrna expression in blood of women with endometriosis associated with infertility.

Objective: Aim: To examine HMGB1 expression in the blood of women with endometriosis-associated infertility and to establish its role in disease progression.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: We analyzed HMGB1 gene expression levels in two groups: 20 women with endometriosis-associated infertility (main group) and 10 healthy women (control group). The study was conducted at Bukovinian State Medical University and the Centre of Reproductive Medicine.

The Composite TiO-CuO Layers Formed by Electrophoretic Method for CO Gas Photoreduction.

This study demonstrates the ability to control the properties of TiO-CuO composite layers for photocatalytic applications by using a simple electrophoretic deposition method from isopropanol-based suspension. To obtain uniform layers with a controlled composition, the surfactant sodium lauryl sulfate was used, which influenced the electrophoretic mobility of the particles and the morphology of the deposited layers. The TiO-CuO composite layers with different CuO contents (1.

Antibodies to Hepatitis B core antigen prevalence study in Kazakhstan.

Introduction: Kazakhstan is being considered medium-endemic for Hepatitis B virus infection (HBV). HBV remains transmissible by direct exposure to infected blood or organic fluids. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of anti-HBcore and the risk factors impacting positive anti-HBcore markers among donors at Scientific-Production Center of Transfusiology, Ministry of Healthcare of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Photoelectron Properties and Organic Molecules Photodegradation Activity of Titania Nanotubes with CuO Nanoparticles Heat Treated in Air and Argon.

Titania is very famous photocatalyst for decomposition of organic pollutants. Its photocatalytic properties significantly depend on the morphology and chemical composition of the samples. Herein, the TiO nanotubes/CuO nanoheterostructures have been synthesized and the effect of heat treatment performed in molecular atmospheres of air and argon on their photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic properties has been studied.

Placental vascular remodeling in pregnant women with COVID-19.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has been causing the pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) that has so far resulted in over 450 million infections and six million deaths. This respiratory virus uses angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 as a receptor to enter host cells and affects various tissues in addition to the lungs. The present study reports that the placental arteries of women who gave birth to live full-term newborns while developing COVID-19 during pregnancy exhibit severe vascular wall thickening and the occlusion of the vascular lumen.
