The number of patients presenting with the inflammatory diseases of paranasal sinuses remains rather high both in this country and all over the world despite the development of new methods for diagnostics and treatment of this pathology and their extensive application in the clinical practice. The present paper offers a systematic review of the literature concerned with diagnostics of acute and chronic diseases of frontal sinuses published during the period from 2005 to 2011. The analysis of these publications has demonstrated that these diseases still constitute a challenging problem for otorhinolaryngology despite the improvement of technologies for their diagnostics and management. It is concluded that systematization of the available methods for this purpose is needed in conjunction with the standardization of the approaches to the choice of adequate surgical strategies.

Little is known regarding the effects high-intensity training performed in hypoxia on the oxidative stress and antioxidant systems. The aim of this study was to assess the potential effect of 4 weeks of repeated sprint training in hypoxia (RSH) on the redox balance. Forty male well-trained cyclists were matched into two different interventions (RSH,  = 20) or in normoxia, RSN,  = 20) and tested twice (before (Pre-) and after (Post-) a 4-week of training) for performance (repeated sprint ability (RSA) test), oxidative stress, and antioxidant status.
