Use of saliva crystallogenic properties for early diagnostics of prostate cancer.

Multivariate analysis was used to examine the morphology of mixed saliva crystals in 55 healthy men and the patients with suspected malignant prostate gland diseases. The established changes in the shape of dendritic crystals in the saliva from prostate-problematic patients were corroborated by the cluster and discriminatory analyse.

Crystallization of components oral fluid in diabetics in case of absence of crystal structures.

Crystallization of mixed salivary pools was studied in patients with types 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus. The formation of microcrystals in two types of diabetes varied and could be differentiated by multidimensional analysis. If salivary crystallization was absent, the material could be evaluated by the texture analysis methods.

Algorithm for evaluation of crystal figures obtained after drying of mixed saliva.

Algorithm of qualitative description of crystallographic aggregations of mixed saliva was developed. The efficiency of this method for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases was demonstrated.

Experimental study of the use of Perftoran for preventing the formation of postoperative adhesions in peritonitis.

The effect of Perftoran (perfluorocarbon compound) on cells of the peritoneal exudate and small intestinal serosa was studied in Wistar rats with experimental peritonitis and mechanical injury. The peritoneal cavity was treated with Perftoran for preventing postoperative adhesions and the mechanisms of reparative regeneration of the mesothelium after this treatment were studied by immunohistochemical methods and scanning electron microscopy. The increase in macrophage population during the early postoperative period and its decrease at later terms prevented fibroblast activation and promoted epithelialization as early as by day 5.
