[Treatment of patients with ishemic stroke in the vertebral-basilar system in acute period: experience of using the neuroprotective drug Mexidol].

Objective: To assess the clinical efficacy and safety of Mexidol in patients in acute period of ishemic stroke in the vertebral-basilar system (iiVBS).

Material And Methods: An open randomized comparative study involved 52 patients. 32 of them received Mexidol (mail group, MG) and 20 received therapy without neuroprotective drugs.

[Mental disorders in blepharospasm].

Objective: To analyze mental disorders in blepharospasm (BS) before and after botulinum therapy (BT).

Material And Methods: We examined 25 patients with BS (9 men and 16 women), aged 50 to 85 years (mean 64.1±18.

Rapid multi-residue LC-MS/MS determination of nitrofuran metabolites, nitroimidazoles, amphenicols, and quinolones in honey with ultrasonic-assisted derivatization - magnetic solid-phase extraction.

A rapid multi-residue LC-MS/MS method for the identification and determination of banned veterinary drugs in honey was developed. A total of 31 investigated veterinary drugs belonging to 4 classes including nitrofurans metabolites, nitroimidazoles, amphenicols, and quinolones were quantified by LC-MS/MS with ESI using one single injection. The sample preparation included treatment with 5-nitro-2-furaldehyde (5-NFA) in a thermostated ultrasonic bath (80 °C, 0.

The onset of functional movement disorders after COVID-19: A case series.

Patients with post-acute sequelae after coronavirus disease (COVID-19) report a variety of non-specific neurological complications (e.g., myoclonus, limb weakness).

Current trends in analytical strategies for the chromatographic determination of nitrofuran metabolites in food samples. An update since 2012.

Nitrofurans (NFs) are synthetic broad-spectrum antibacterial and antiparasitic drugs, which recently were extensively used in veterinary practice. In the body of animals, NFs are converted into carcinogenic and mutagenic metabolites that can be accumulated in foods of animal origin having an adverse effect on human health. Therefore, NFs are currently banned in animal husbandry and aquaculture of many countries.
