The processes of bone remodeling and regulation of blood pressure are caused by common genetic determinants underlying the development of these diseases. To solve practical medical problems, it seems relevant to carry out the correction and treatment of syntropic diseases at the same time with the aim of achieving the maximum positive effect. The most serious complication of osteoporosis is bone fractures, especially fractures of the proximal femur, which are a serious medical and social problem. The aim of our work was to evaluate the repair of bone tissue after fractures of the proximal femur with subsequent intramedullary osteosynthesis on the background of arterial hypertension and its correction. A model object was used in the work - gray rats, lines Wistar and SHR, which were operated on. For the animals of one of the groups with genetically determined arterial hypertension, correction of the above-mentioned pathology in the form of enalapril monotherapy in the postoperative period was applied. In this group, the picture of the dynamics of blood pressure indices corresponded to the cumulative effect of enalapril - after three weeks of taking the drug, the rats' systolic blood pressure indices corresponded to those of normotensive animals, and the indicators of adhesion of the fracture zone were higher than in the group of rats with arterial hypertension, which was not corrected. Adequate correction of the level of blood pressure in the postoperative period favorably affects the reparative capabilities of the bone, while at the same time increasing the chances of positive results of surgical treatment of patients.

Background: Direct-to-implant (DTI) breast reconstruction offers immediate aesthetic and psychological benefits, but the role of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) remains debated. Using a multi-institutional database, this study evaluates and compares outcomes between ADM-assisted and non-ADM DTI procedures.
Methods: The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database from 2008 to 2022 was queried to identify female patients who underwent DTI breast reconstruction for oncological purposes.

Background: Medication adherence plays a crucial role in effectively managing hypertension, a significant public health concern, especially in regions like Central Vietnam. This study aimed to assess medication adherence levels among hypertensive patients in primary care settings and explore the factors influencing adherence within this specific population.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate medication adherence and its determinants among individuals with hypertension in Central Vietnam.

Objectives: To update the 2017 European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) recommendations for treatment of systemic sclerosis (SSc), incorporating new evidence and therapies.
Methods: An international task force was convened in line with EULAR standard operating procedures. A nominal group technique exercise was performed in two rounds to define questions underpinning a subsequent systematic literature review.

Background And Aims: Recurrent myocardial infarction (MI) and incident heart failure (HF) are major post-MI complications. Herein, contemporary post-MI risks for recurrent MI and HF are described.
Methods: A total of 6804 patients with a primary discharge diagnosis of MI at 28 Baylor Scott & White Health hospitals (January 2015 to December 2021) were studied.
