[Association between anthropometric indices with the risk of hypoglycemia in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus].

Almost 90% of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) are obese. Obesity increases the risk of developing DM2 several times. The calculation of anthropometric indices is used to diagnose the severity of obesity, as well as to assess the risk associated with obesity.

[Modern approach to the prevention of type 2 diabetes in the elderly.].

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a common chronic metabolic age-associated disease. Elderly patients over 65 years of age predominate among those with type 2 diabetes. 70% of patients with prediabetes develop type 2 diabetes during their lifetime.

[Problems of choosing hypoglycemic therapy in elderly patients (literature review).].

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the most common non-infectious diseases in the world. Among people with type 2 diabetes, patients of the older age group predominate: 60,5% of all patients are over 65 years old, and the peak prevalence is at the age of 65-69 years. The treatment of this pathology in elderly patients has certain features, which is associated with a high level of polymorbidity in these patients.

[COVID-19, neuroCOVID-19 and cognitive impairment in elderly and old patients (literature review).].

The new coronavirus infection COVID-19 causes damage to many organs and systems, is a multi-organ disease. Many researchers are studying the relationship of the new coronavirus infection with polymorbid pathology, frailty, sarcopenia. The SARS-CoV-2 virus has the property of neurotropism, therefore, olfactory, taste disorders, as well as cognitive impairments can join the spectrum of clinical manifestations and consequences of the disease.

Effects of Different β-Lactam Antibiotics on Indirect Tomato ( L.) Shoot Organogenesis and Growth Inhibition In Vitro.

A β-lactams that act by inhibiting the bacterial cell wall biosynthesis are one of the most common classes of antibiotics applied to suppress the growth of latent bacterial infection associated with the plant tissue culture, as well as in the -mediated transformation techniques. Plant sensitivity to antibiotics usually is species-, genotype-, or even tissue-specific and mainly depends on concentrations, growth conditions, and culture system. In the presented article, we estimated a comparative effect of four β-lactam antibiotics (Claforan, timentin, amoxicillin, and Amoxiclav) at different concentrations in an agar-solidified Murashige and Skoog (MS) culture medium supplemented with 5 mg L 6-benzylaminopurine (6-BA) and 0.
