Objective: The study focuses on identifying predictors of treatment outcome in abdominal sepsis (AS) in humans.
Subjects And Methods: 70 patients underwent determination of blood pressure, heart rate, SpO , the content of leu- kocytes, albumin, C-reactive protein, fibrinogen and TNF-a in arterial (femoral artery) and venous (subclavian vein) blood. Automatic biochemical analyzer Cobas-Integra 400 ('Roche", Switzerland), the test system Microlab STAR ELISA kit reagents "alpha TNF - ELISA - best" were used during the research. System statistical analysis included paired comparison of patients with favorable (n=27) and lethal (n=43) outcome, correlation, cluster; discriminating analysis, multidimensional scaling and plotting ROC curves with sensitivity and specificity indicators predictive value.
Results: Identfied predictors of outcome inpatients,from which to form a predictive model of CRP fibrinogen, albumin, and TNF-a arterial blood. It is established that if the basic treatment of the patient CRP <9,8 g/l,fibrinogen >3,43 g/l, albumin <28,9 gl and TNF-a <499,3 ng/ml, the probability of death was statistically significantly higher thanfavorable.
Conclusion: It is assumed that therapeutic measures should be aimed at correction of the above mentioned indicators.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with low-grade inflammation, which can be exacerbated by renal artery stenosis (RAS) and renovascular hypertension, potentially worsening outcomes through pro-inflammatory cytokines. This study investigated whether mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) could reduce fat inflammation in pigs with MetS and RAS. Twenty-four pigs were divided into Lean (control), MetS, MetS + RAS, and MetS + RAS + MSCs.

Vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) can transition between a quiescent contractile or "differentiated" phenotype and a "proliferative-dedifferentiated" phenotype in response to environmental cues, similar to what in occurs in the wound healing process observed in fibroblasts. When dysregulated, these processes contribute to the development of various lung and cardiovascular diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as key modulators of SMC differentiation and phenotypic changes.
