[Possibilities of combined diathermo-cryodestruction in the treatment of hyperplastic processes of the cervix uteri].

The authors analyze the results of two-year follow-up of 82 patients operated on for hypertrophy of the cervix uteri. Traditional cone-shaped diathermo-excision and diathermo-cryodestruction in the authors' modification were used. Good results were achieved in all the cases.

[Diagnosis of chronic fetal anoxia].

The intrauterine fetal status was assessed in women at 34-42 week gestation; the pregnancies were complicated by obstetric and extragenital disease (nephropathy, prolonged gestation, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, renal disease). Computer-assisted analysis of the diagnostic value of fetal cardiotocography, uterine-placental hemodynamics, and acid-base status of maternal capillary blood showed that the following parameters are most informative for the diagnosis of chronic fetal hypoxia: stable rhythm duration; oscillation amplitude; acceleration/deceleration number, amplitude, and duration; volume flow rate of the uterine-placental unit; and pH and base deficiency in the blood taken from the cervix uteri.

[Several parameters of cellular immunity in uncomplicated pregnancy and in threatened abortion].

Levels of T and B lymphocytes have been assessed in 117 patients with probable loss of pregnancy during its various terms. The results compared with those obtained from 47 females with normally advancing pregnancies and 25 healthy nonpregnant women demonstrate that during the normal pregnancy, the number of T and B lymphocytes tends to decrease while that of lymphocytes is increasing. The signs of pregnancy interruption, particularly pronounced in threatened premature labor are found to be followed with a pronounced activation of the immunity T-system.
