Local Application of Minimally Manipulated Autologous Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) Reduces Inflammation and Improves Bilio-Biliary Anastomosis Integrity.

Bilio-biliary anastomosis (BBA) is a critical surgical procedure that is performed with the objective of restoring bile duct continuity. This procedure is often required in cases where there has been an injury to the extrahepatic bile ducts or during liver transplantation. Despite advances in surgical techniques, the healing of BBA remains a significant challenge, with complications such as stricture formation and leakage affecting patient outcomes.

Case report: Autopericardial aortic valve replacement and mitral homograft implantation in a patient with ankylosing spondylitis.

Introduction And Importance: Bekhterev's disease, or ankylosing spondylitis (AS), is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease closely related to the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27. Cardiac damage in AS occurs in 2-10 % of patients more commonly as aortic insufficiency, aortitis, mitral valve fibrosis, or cardiac conduction abnormalities.

Case Presentation: In this article we present a clinical case of a 52-year-old female patient with Bekhterev's disease, who underwent aortic valve reconstruction with autopericardium and mitral homograft implantation in mitral position.

Differential Laboratory Diagnosis of Acute Fever in Guinea: Preparedness for the Threat of Hemorrhagic Fevers.

Acute febrile illnesses occur frequently in Guinea. Acute fever itself is not a unique, hallmark indication (pathognomonic sign) of any one illness or disease. In the infectious disease context, fever's underlying cause can be a wide range of viral or bacterial pathogens, including the Ebola virus.

[Clinical and morphological analysis of Langerhans cell histiocytosis in a child of early age].

The authors characterize a rare variant of Langerhans cell histiocytosis in a child of early age. Multiple-system form including liver damage is characterized by a particularly severe course, especially in early childhood. The authors report clinical, morphological and immunohistochemical data of the patient aged 1 year and 11 months.

[Adenosine A2A receptor as a drug target for treatment of sepsis].

Sepsis is a generalized infection accompanied by response of the body that manifests in a clinical and laboratory syndrome, namely, in the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) from the organism to the infection. Although sepsis is a widespread and life-threatening disease, the assortment of drugs for its treatment is mostly limited by antibiotics. Therefore, the search for new cellular targets for drug therapy of sepsis is an urgent task of modern medicine and pharmacology.
