The choice of classification to determine the optimal tactics for treatment of the thoracolumbar junction traumatic injuries.

Objective: Aim: To evaluate the influence of the degree of detail of the nature of the pathomorphological changes in the osteoligamentous structures on the tactics of treating the patients with the traumatic damage to the thoracolumbar junction.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis of the treatment tactics was carried out in 96 patients with a traumatic injury of the thoracolumbar junction, both those who underwent a surgical treatment and those who underwent a conservative therapy. The lesions were classified using F.

THE ROLE OF NITRIC OXIDE AND PEROXYNITRITE IN THE ERYTHEMAL PERIOD OF ULTRAVIOLET-INDUCED SKIN DAMAGE.

Objective: The aim: To study the activity of inducible NO synthase in the blood, the content of NO metabolites and peroxynitrite in the skin and blood of guinea pigs during erythema periods after local ultraviolet skin irradiation.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The studies were carried out on 24 guinea pigs, subjected to local ultraviolet irradiation. The control group consisted of intact guinea pigs (n=6).

Correlation of fused segmental and total cervical spine alignment in patients with subaxial cervical spine traumatic injury in late postoperative period.

Unlabelled: Sagittal balance of operated cervical spine has a great influence on the intensity of pain syndrome, the overall quality of life, the speed and quality of consolidation, and the rate of progression of adjacent segment degeneration.

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the correlation of the local segmental and the total sagittal alignment of cervical spine when performing anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) using different vertebral body replacement systems.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of late postoperative radiographs of 260 patients, who underwent ACCF due to subaxial traumatic injury of the cervical spine, was performed.

Effect of local UV radiation on the morphofunctional state of the skin of guinea pigs in early and remote periods after irradiation.

Objective: The aim is to establish the features of morphological and morphometric changes in the skin of guinea pigs in erythemal, early post-erythemal and late post-erythemic periods after local ultraviolet irradiation.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: Studies were conducted on 54 albino guinea pigs weighing 400-500 g. Ultraviolet erythema was caused by irradiation in 1 minimum erythemal dose.
