The article summarizes the results of our own scientific and practical research on biopuncture (or pharmacopuncture) - local stimulation of acupuncture points with small doses of drugs or other agents. The "object" of the work was dorsopathies at the lumbosacral level, the choice of which was explained by the widest coverage of the population, the protracted course and the severity of the consequences. In the course of the research, the addition and even potentiation of the reflex and drug links of the method under consideration was noted.

We hypothesized that T1 mapping and ECV differ between PAD patients and matched controls.
Methods And Results: A total of 37 individuals (18 PAD patients and 19 matched controls) underwent 3.
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is associated with impaired blood flow in the lower extremities and histopathologic changes of the skeletal calf muscles, resulting in abnormal microvascular perfusion. We studied the use of convolution neural networks (CNNs) to differentiate patients with PAD from matched controls using perfusion pattern features from contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI) of the skeletal calf muscles. We acquired CE-MRI based skeletal calf muscle perfusion in 56 patients (36 patients with PAD and 20 matched controls).

- Medical practitioners focus on diagnosing peripheral artery disease (PAD), which leads to poor blood circulation and specific pain in the calf muscles.
- Researchers hypothesized that changes in muscle perfusion and increased connective tissue could affect the appearance of calf muscles, which they studied using non-invasive contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI).
- They developed a machine learning model that achieved high accuracy in distinguishing between PAD patients and controls based on textural features from CE-MRI scans, showing potential for improved assessment of lower extremity ischemia.
We have suggested that adipocytes in uterine scars may affect the development of the placenta accrete spectrum (PAS). In the experimental part, we explored adipocytes in the uterine wall by the twelfth sexual cycle after surgery. In the clinical part, we investigated adipocyte clusters in the cesarean scar of pregnant women with and without PAS.
