A Photoluminescence Study of Eu, Tb, Ce Emission in Doped Crystals of Strontium-Barium Fluoride Borate Solid Solution BaSr(BO)F (BSBF).

The present study is aimed at unveiling the luminescence potential of BaSr(BO)F (BSBF) crystals doped with Eu, Tb, and Ce. Owing to the incongruent melting character of the phase, the NaF compound was used as a solvent for BSBF crystal growth. The structure of BSBF: Eu with EuO concentration of about 0.

Case Report: Supernormal Vascular Aging in Leningrad Siege Survivors.

Age-related changes in the vascular system play an important role in the biological age and lifespan of a person and maybe affected from an early age onward. One of the indicators of changes in the vascular system is arterial wall stiffness and its main measure, i.e.

Experimental and Ab Initio Studies of Intrinsic Defects in "Antizeolite" Borates with a Ba(BO) Framework and Their Influence on Properties.

The porous Ba(BO) framework of the so-called "antizeolite" borates with channels along the axis is capable of accommodating various guest anionic groups, e.g. [BO], [F], [F], and [(Li,Na)F].

[Epidemiology of Arterial Hypertension in Russian Federation - Importance of Choice of Criteria of Diagnosis].

Purpose: Assessment of prevalence of arterial hypertension (AH), need for prescription of antihypertensive therapy (AHT), and efficacy of AHT in Russian population in accordance with novel guideline of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association ("American recommendations") on diagnosis and treatment of AH (2017).

Materials And Methods: Epidemiological study ESSE-RF (ЭССЕ-РФ) was carried out in 12 regions of Russian Federation (RF) with different climatic-geographic characteristics. Number of examined residents of RF aged 25-65 years was 20 652.

Intravital and postmortem diagnostics of myocardial hypertrophy of the left ventricle:identity or convention?

Aim: The aim of the study is to assess the compliance of the results of electrocardiographic (ECG) and echocardiographic diagnostic methods of hypertrophy of left ventricular myocardium (LVH) with the postmortem finding of measurement of left ventricular myocardium mass (LVM).

Materials And Methods: We examined the data of intravital study of anthropometric measurements [age, height, weight, body mass index (BMI)], instrumental results [12-lead ECG, EchoCG], as well as the postmortem finding (direct measurement of LVM at autopsy) in 15 patients of general therapy department. While analyzing ECG we studied as conventional ECG criteria for the detection of LVH as well as the author's own criteria based on two models (regression and discriminant analyses), including voltage, sex and age criteria.
