Aim: to analyze the consequences of cholecystectomy.
Material And Methods: 348 patients were under observation within 10 years after cholecystectomy. Surgery for destructive and chronic cholecystitis was performed in 115 and 233 patients respectively. The consequences of cholecystectomy were assessed using bile acids level in blood plasma, stomach and duodenal pressure, pancreatic and stomach changes.
Results And Discussion: It was established that lithocholic, deoxycholic, taurodeoxycholic acids were increased by 44% within 10 years after surgery. At the same time glycocholic and tauroursodeoxycholic acids were decreased by 21.5% in 5 years after surgery. Bile acids level changes were associated with changes of stomach and duodenal pressure. The most pronounced disorders were observed in distal duodenum. There was more than 2.8-fold excess of normal pressure in this area. Duodenal hypertension was accompanied by pancreatic ducts enlargement in 9.5% of cases and increased echogenicity in 93% of cases.
Conclusion: Changes of the level and proportion of blood plasma bile acids and hypertension in upper gastrointestinal tract are the most important in chronic pancreatitis pathogenesis after cholecystectomy. Such conditions occur within first 3 years after surgery.

Diseases and injuries can cause significant bone loss, leading to increased medical expenses, decreased work efficiency, and a decline in quality of life. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is gaining attention as an alternative to autologous and allogeneic transplantation due to the limited availability of donors. Biomaterials represent a promising strategy for bone regeneration, and their design should consider the three key processes in bone tissue engineering: osteogenesis, bone conduction, and bone induction.

Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) has a significant impact on public health, especially in light of the recent SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. To enhance disease characterization and improve understanding of the underlying mechanisms, a comprehensive analysis of the plasma lipidome, metabolome and proteome was conducted in patients with viral and bacterial CAP infections, including those induced by SARS-CoV-2. Lipidomic, metabolomic and proteomic profiling were conducted on plasma samples of 69 patients suffering either from viral or bacterial CAP.

Hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor of coronary heart disease and cholesterol-lowering probiotics are seen as alternative to drugs for the management of this condition. In the present study, we evaluated the cholesterol-lowering activity of KS6I1 in high-cholesterol diet-induced hypercholesterolemic mice. The mice were fed with high-cholesterol diet (HCD) and were divided into three groups: HCD group, KS6I1 group (fed with HCD + 200 μl of 10 CFU/ml KS6I1), and L.

As the extension of the egg-laying cycle, heightened energy and lipid metabolism cause excessive lipid accumulation, resulting in rapid decline in laying performance during the late laying period. Bile acids (BAs), synthesized from cholesterol in the liver, are potent metabolic and immune signaling molecules involved in lipid metabolism and the regulation of energy homeostasis. However, under different dietary protein levels, the role of BAs on hepatic lipid metabolism of laying hens at the late phase remains unclear.
