In most mammals, postural soleus muscles are involved in the maintenance of the stability of the body in the gravitational field of Earth. It is well established that immediately after a laboratory rat is exposed to conditions of weightlessness (parabolic flight) or simulated microgravity (hindlimb suspension/unloading), a sharp decrease in soleus muscle electrical activity occurs. However, starting from the 3rd day of mechanical unloading, soleus muscle electrical activity begins to increase and reaches baseline levels approximately by the 14th day of hindlimb suspension.

Meanwhile, at present, comprehensive information on telecommunications interaction between doctors of various medical organizations of the regions of the Russian Federation and employees of federal centers is insufficient, which determines the relevance of studying this topic.
Aim: Analysis of the provision of medical care in remote interaction of medical workers using telemedicine technologies («doctor-doctor») between the Endocrinology Research Centre and the regions of the Russian Federation in 2019-2023.
The elimination of ground reaction force (support withdrawal) vastly affects slow postural muscles in terms of their regulation and structure. One of the effects of support withdrawal in this study was an immediate postural muscle inactivation, followed by the daily gradual development of spontaneous activity of the slow postural soleus muscle in response to rat hindlimb suspension to mimic space flight. The origin of this activity is somewhat akin to muscle spasticity after spinal cord injuries and is the result of KCC2 content decline in the spinal cord's motor neurons.

The only symptoms of the beginning of cardiac remodeling and concomitant predictors of an unfavorable cardiovascular prognosis are: thickening of epicardial fat (EAT), secreting a number of adipokines, and cardiospecific miRNAs. To improve the effectiveness of prevention of CVD in young patients with DM1, a search was made for structural-functional and epigenetic markers.
