Hemorheological indices were studied in 89 patients. In 61 patients the authors have revealed somewhat increased viscosity potential of blood and negligible changes in the aggregation activity of erythrocytes which is thought by the authors to be due to the saved compensatory potentialities of the organism. In 28 patients with the complicated course of the disease the rheological parameters of blood became worse because of the suppressed compensatory potentialities of organism. So, in addition to the adequate transfusion-infusion therapy the complex of treatment must include immunostimulating means (Levamisole, Prodigiozan, Tactivin etc.).

Elevated cortisol in chronic stress and mood disorders causes morbidity including metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. There is therefore interest in developing drugs that lower cortisol by targeting its endocrine pathway, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. However, several promising HPA-modulating drugs have failed to reduce long-term cortisol in mood disorders, despite effectiveness in other hypercortisolism conditions such as Cushing's syndrome.

Background: A recent study conducted by the laboratory of the first author revealed that major depression is composed of two distinct subtypes: major dysmood disorder (MDMD) and simple dysmood disorder (SDMD). The latter is a less severe phenotype with fewer aberrant biological pathways. MDMD, but not SDMD, patients were identified to have highly sensitized cytokine/growth factor networks using stimulated whole blood cultures.

Background: Postural instability is common in people with Parkinson's Disease (PwPD), increasing their risk of injurious falls. Evidence suggests a sensory reweighting deficit in PwPD, along with compensatory muscle co-contraction in response to postural challenges. During balance tasks requiring sensory reweighting, older adults exhibit elevated postural sway and muscle co-contraction, as well as longer perceptual delays, compared to young adults.

Purpose: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) has shown feasibility in evaluating cognitive function and brain functional connectivity (FC). Therefore, this fNIRS study aimed to develop a screening method for subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) based on resting-state prefrontal FC and neuropsychological tests via machine learning.
Methods: Functional connectivity data measured by fNIRS were collected from 55 normal controls (NCs), 80 SCD individuals, and 111 MCI individuals.

To overcome the compensatory effect between Topo I and II, one of the reasons accounting for the resistance of SCLC patients, we are pioneering the use of 3-arylisoquinolines to develop dual inhibitors of Topo I/II for the management of SCLC. A total of 46 new compounds were synthesized. Compounds (IC = 1.
