The treatment of extended pulmonary tuberculosis, resistant to antibacterial preparations, constitutes extremely complex problem. The author proposes to apply simultant pulmonary resection and intrapleural thoracoplasty, the simple one or extended, for the treatment of those patients. There were studied up the results of treatment of 401 patients, simultant interventions were used in 134. Analysis of the data obtained permits to consider the operation as the curative-prophylactic one. The indications for application of every variant of intervention were determined, what have had significantly increased the possibilities of treatment of extended pulmonary tuberculosis.

Physical activity is crucial for children's physical, cognitive, and social development, reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases and improving overall well-being. A major legacy of extremely preterm delivery is respiratory limitation with reduced lung function and decreased exercise capacity which can be further exacerbated by inactivity and deconditioning. Strategies to increase incidental physical activities in early childhood and participation in sport and more formal exercise programmes in middle childhood have the potential to optimize cardiopulmonary function, improve quality of life, and foster social interactions in childhood and beyond, thereby providing benefits that extend far beyond the physical domain.

The intratumoral microbiome plays a significant role in many cancers, such as lung, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer. Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most lethal malignancies and is often diagnosed at advanced stages. , an anaerobic Gram-negative bacterium primarily residing in the oral cavity, has garnered significant attention for its emerging role in several extra-oral human diseases and, lately, in pancreatic cancer progression and prognosis.

: The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) is designed for evaluating comorbidities and mortality risks, with the age-adjusted CCI (ACCI) combining age and comorbidity assessments. Despite its long-standing use, research on CCI's application in cardiac surgery patients is limited. This study assessed the effectiveness of CCI and ACCI in predicting in-hospital mortality and post-surgery outcomes for patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

TSPX is an X-linked tumor suppressor that was initially identified in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines. However, its expression patterns and downstream mechanisms in NSCLC remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the functions of TSPX in NSCLC by identifying its potential downstream targets and their correlation with clinical outcomes.

Passive antibody therapies, typically administered via parenteral routes, have played a crucial role in the initial response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the ongoing evolution of SARS-CoV-2 has revealed significant limitations of this approach, primarily due to mutational escape and the inadequate delivery of antibodies to the upper respiratory tract. To overcome these challenges, we propose a novel prophylactic strategy involving the intranasal delivery of an antibody in combination with an Fc-binding nanodisc.
