[The influence of pseudoexfoliation syndrome on central retina in elderly patients.].

to evaluate the effect of pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXF) on the stage of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and central retinal thickness, measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in elderly patients living in Saint-Petersburg. 25 elderly patients (30 eyes) with PXF and 25 age-matched patients (29 eyes) without PXF (control group) were included in the study. Retinal thickness in fovea and parafovea as well as AMD stage were compared in the groups.

[Features of the coefficient of variation of hematological indicators in persons of middle, elderly and senile age with pneumonia.].

Pneumonia is the leading mortality rate among all infectious diseases. It has been established that the reliable risk group for morbidity and mortality from this nosology includes persons over 60 years of age, and with age the severity of the disease only increases. According to literary data, one of the reasons for the decline in adaptation capabilities of older persons is the phenomenon of «age desinhronosis», which manifests itself in significant fluctuations in the parameters of the internal environment of the body.

[Age and nosological structure of ophthalmological diseases of patients of the ophthalmological center of Saint-Petersburg in 2015-2019.].

About 1,3 billion people live on our planet with visual disorders such as cataract and glaucoma, the prevalence of which is significantly higher in the elderlypopulation. Eye diseases remain a global medical, social and economic problem, associated with both the progression of the disease to blindness and the lack of pathogenetic therapy methods. A retrospective analysis of the long-term dynamics and structure of cases of ophthalmological diseases of patients treated in a large multidisciplinary hospital was carried out.

There are about 1,3 billion people worldwide with visual disorders such as cataract and glaucoma, the prevalence of which is significantly higher in elder persons. Eye diseases remain a global medical, social and economic problem, associated with both the progression of the disease up to blindness and the lack of pathogenetic therapy methods.

[Personified monitoring of acute coronary syndrome and its outcomes in elderly patients. Angina. Heart failure (overview).].

Review is about current information on the features of heart failure and angina diagnosis and monitoring in elderly and senile patients. One of the main problem in patients over 65 years is comorbidity, which requires corrective action in the risk stratification and prediction of clinical outcomes. The priority of non-invasive diagnostic tests is noted.

[Parametres of cardiopulmonary exercise testing in patients with lung and esophagus cancer according to their gender and age.].

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing is a diagnostic method, which can be used for oncological patients. It shows its perspectives in measuring reserve capacity of the human organism, determining the risk of postoperative complications, and long-term prognosis. The method is also useful for optimization of rehabilitation measures, which is actual for polymorbid aged patients.
