Investigations effected in 16 subjects of 20-69 years at bed rest after bone fractures demonstrated, in an interval of 10-27 days after surgery, normal plasma sodium concentration and a decreased urinary elimination, an increased plasma potassium concentration but a decreased urinary output. The osmotic changes were not significant. The plasma vasopressin activity was increased. Three urinary aldosterone determinations showed an increased output. The serum calcium level was within normal limits but its urinary output was initially slightly decreased, contrary to its augmented elimination after simple voluntary bed rest, as results from literature. The hydroxyproline elimination was increased, demonstrating an active collagen metabolism.

The relevance of the presented topic lies in the rapid growth of complications from diseases that subsequently lead to limb amputation, as well as the problem of untimely detection of ischemic tissues. The aim of the study is to determine and explain the main progressive methods of surgical treatment of obstructive diseases of vessels of different calibers that lead to circulatory disorders and tissue necrosis. The following research methods were used in the work: statistical method, bibliographic, and bibliosemantic.

Introduction: In space, under weightlessness conditions, human brain activity is changed due to the shifting of body fluid and blood toward the cephalic region. This shifting leads to changes in cerebral hemodynamics and, consequently, neurophysiological function, which impacts mental functions like cognition and decision-making capabilities of space travelers. The present study reports the effect of acute exposure to simulated microgravity on cognitive functions and event-related potentials.

Disuse bone loss is prone to occur in individuals who lack mechanical stimulation due to prolonged spaceflight or extended bed rest, rendering them susceptible to fractures and placing an enormous burden on social care; nevertheless, the underlying molecular mechanisms of bone loss caused by mechanical unloading have not been fully elucidated. Numerous studies have focused on the epigenetic regulation of disuse bone loss; yet limited research has been conducted on the impact of RNA modification bone formation in response to mechanical unloading conditions. In this study, we discovered that mA reader IGF2BP1 was downregulated in both osteoblasts treated with 2D clinostat and bone tissue in HLU mice.

A reduction in cerebral blood flow (CBF) has been observed during spaceflight and bed rest. We aimed to examine the magnitude and regional heterogeneity of the decrease in CBF during bed rest compared to posture changes on Earth. Seventeen participants (age, 29 ± 9 years, 7 females) were studied in the upright and supine posture and over 3 days of bed rest.
