[Paraneoplastic opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome].

Opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome (OMS) is a rare neurological disorder characterized by a combination of main symptoms: opsoclonus, myoclonus, ataxia, psychoemotional and behavioral disturbances. OMS can develop in children as a result of immunopathological processes against the background of infectious or oncological pathology and lead to persistent neurological deficit. A case of ten-year observation of paraneoplastic OMS associated with neuroblastoma in a child is presented.

4-Oxo-7-fluoro-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diamides: Synthesis, Structural Features, Lanthanide Complexes, and Am(III)/Ln(III) Solvent Extraction.

A highly efficient synthetic approach was developed for the synthesis of unsymmetrical 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diamides with two different substituents in the fourth and seventh positions of the phenanthroline core. The structures of these ligands were confirmed using various spectral methods including 2D-NMR and X-ray analysis. Quantum chemical calculations supported the presence of tautomeric forms of these ligands.

INCREASING THE EFFICIENCY OF BACTERIOLOGICAL DIAGNOSIS OF UREGENITAL TRICHOMONIASIS USING THE IMPROVED NUTRIENT MEDIUM.

The scientific and practical significance of the problem of urogenital trichomoniasis is determined by the prevalence and variability of the pathogen. It is assumed that under adverse conditions, these protozoa lose the ability to move intensively and undergo morphological transformation. The existence of such a problem generates the scientific and practical interest in the matter of improvement of bacteriological methods of diagnosis when examining patients with chronic inflammatory processes of the urogenital tract.

Comparative biomechanical characteristics of one-arm hang in climbing for beginners and qualified athletes.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to identify the basic kinematic characteristics of the one-arm hang in climbing for beginners and qualified climbers.

Material And Methods: Technique of the one-arm hang in climbing among 20 leading climbers of the World and Ukraine and 20 beginner male amateur climbers was analyzed. A qualified athlete participated in the demonstration of various models of the one-arm hang performance.

Vaginal dryness: individualised patient profiles, risks and mitigating measures.

Vaginal dryness (VD) affects both pre- and postmenopausal women at any age. Since the hormonal regulation changes during the climacteric period are considered as being the main course of the VD, affected women prefer not to talk about the problem. However, the problem does exist, and unfortunately if any, relatively minor group in the population possesses the health literacy at sufficient level to understand that VD is a suboptimal health condition which carries a multi-factorial character.
