Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates how sociodemographic factors relate to injury-related health outcomes worldwide, specifically analyzing disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) from injuries across 195 countries from 1990 to 2017.
  • - Findings show that while most injury causes display a trend of decreasing DALY rates with higher Socio-demographic Index (SDI), certain injuries like road injuries, interpersonal violence, and self-harm deviate from this trend, indicating complex underlying factors.
  • - The research highlights the importance of understanding these injury patterns to improve health strategies and intervention efforts at both national and global levels, especially since not all injuries follow the same developmental trajectory.

We studied the relationships between body composition parameters and plasma levels of pancreatic, gut, and adipose tissue hormones regulating energy balance and glucose metabolism in diabetic db/db mice (BKS.Cg-Dock7Lepr/J). The body composition parameters in mice aged 8, 12, and 16 weeks were assessed by magnetic resonance imaging.

Effect of alkoxyamines on normal and tumor cells was studied in vitro and in vivo. In vitro experiments showed that alkoxyamines produce a dose-dependent toxic effect on cells of human breast tumor MCF7 line. Transplantation of Krebs-2 ascites carcinoma cells preincubated with alkoxyamines to mice did not induce tumor growth.

Antimetastatic activity of Platin in lyophilized liposomes stored for 7 years after fabrication was evaluated. The main flaw of liposomes as vehicles for drug delivery to the tumors is their high affinity for the liver, which accumulates a great amount thereof. This property of liposomes can be used for adjuvant therapy of operable primary tumors metastasizing to the liver.

Expression of hereditary hemochromatosis as well as predisposition to iron overload syndrome and sporadic porphyria cutanea tarda are currently believed to be associated with the inheritance of certain allelic variants of the HFE gene. Allele frequencies of the C282Y (845A) and H63D (187G) mutations in the HFE gene in human populations of different races are remarkably different, and the prevalence of the S65C (193T) mutation is still poorly studied. In the present study we estimated allele frequencies of HFE mutations in Russians and in a number of Siberian ethnic indigenous populations.
