© 2018 Medical Radiology and Radiation Safety. All rights reserved. Introduction: The highest priority for modern clinical oncology is functionally-sparing and organ-conserving treatment. In Russia, breast cancer (BC), among all malignant tumors, accounted for 21.1 % of women in 2017. Oncoplastic radical resections (OPS-BCS = oncoplastic surgery – breast conserving surgery) have been widely used. This term means resection of the breast for cancer using plastic surgery to restore the shape of the breast, in most cases with one-stage correction of the contralateral breast. Purpose: It was the creation of various techniques of oncoplastic breast surgery, applicable for the appropriate localization of breast cancer and the evaluation of surgical, oncological and aesthetic results. Methods: From 2013 to 2017, in the P.A. Hertsen Moscow Oncology Research Center, organ-conserving surgery were performed in 570 patients with BC with an average age of 54.2. Stage 0 was diagnosed in 4.6 %, I – 5.9 %, IIA – 28.7 %, IIB – 6 %, IIIA – 5.1 %, IIIC – 3.3 %, IIIB – 0.2 %, IV – 0.2 %. Radical resection in the standard version was performed in 290 patients with breast cancer, oncoplastic breast surgery in various modifications – in 280. All patients after the organ-conserving surgical treatment received radiation therapy. Patients received chemotherapy, targeted therapy and hormone therapy according to the indications in depending the disease stage and the immunohistochemical type of the tumor. Results: After an urgent and planned morphological study positive margins of resection were revealed in 10 patients, which required reresection of the edges to a negative state of them in case of an urgent intraoperative response and mastectomy – in case of a planned response. Within 4 years, local recurrences were detected in 4 patients (0.7 %), which required a mastectomy with a one-stage reconstruction. In 1 patient (0.2 %), the disease progressed as metastases to the lung – in this case lobectomy and a necessary chemotherapy were conducted. Cosmetic results were defined as excellent in 70 % cases, good – 25 %, satisfactory – 5 %. Conclusion: If there are indications for organ-conserving treatment of breast cancer and the patient’s decision concerning this surgery, the patient should be offered methods of oncoplastic surgery for the prevention of psychological and emotional stress, effective rehabilitation, and a quick return to active social life.

BACKGROUND: Physical overload results in the development of pathological changes in the organs and systems and thereby causes their dysfunction. This leads to disadaptation, vegetative imbalance, and disturbances in the cardiovascular, nervous, endocrine and other systems. Taken together, these changes give rise to a syndrome of overtraining. In this context, the pathogenetically sound method of therapy appears to be the most suitable for the management of this condition based on the physiotherapeutic non-invasive interventions for the correction of physiological characteristics and the psycho-emotional status of the patients. One such method is bioresonance therapy (BRT). AIM: The objective of the present study was to evaluate the influence of bioresonance therapy (BRT) on the health status of the athletes presenting with the overtraining syndrome. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included 60 athletes presenting with the overtraining syndrome. They were divided into two groups each comprised of 30 subjects of comparable age, sex, sport, and sports qualification. Group I was composed of 30 athletes who were treated by means of bioresonance therapy. Group II (control) contained the athletes who received placebo procedures (i.e. the procedures with the use of a non-functioning device). All the athletes were examined before and after the treatment with the application of the clinical and instrumental methods. RESULTS: The study has demonstrated that the use of bioresonance therapy significantly increases the parasympathetic influence on the rhythm of the heart, reduces the stress on the central contour of its regulation, contributes to the 'economization' of the cardiac activity; has an antihypertensive effect (more pronounced with respect to systolic blood pressure (SBP)), has a normalizing effect on the variability of blood pressure (BP) in the patients with initial BP instability, and significantly decreases the time index in connection with monitoring blood pressure; moreover, BRT has a normalizing effect on the circadian rhythm of BP and corrects the rate of the morning rise in diastolic blood pressure (DBP). CONCLUSION: Bioresonance therapy can be considered as a method for the correction of the syndrome of overtraining in the athletes with the enhanced activity of the sympathetic nervous system.

The development of express method for assessing the state of skin graft by the spectroscopic properties of tissue components involved in the healing of the affected skin or healing of skin grafts was carried out in present work. The proposed method for assessing the state of the skin by the spectroscopic properties of tissue components (using photosensitizers, fluorescent dyes (methylene blue and IcG) and nanophotosensitizers aluminum phthalocyanine nanoparticles (NP-AlPc) applied locally) will evaluate the physiological condition of the skin and assess the degree and rate of engraftment or rejection while also controlling several biochemical and physiological parameters in the entire graft, or the whole area of the skin lesions. Such parameters include the oxygenation of hemoglobin in the tissue microvasculature; the blood supply level; blood flow and lymph flow; assessment of intracellular metabolism; assessment of the cellular respiration type (aerobic/anaerobic).To assess the extent of inflammation the spectrally sensitive to biological environment nanoparticles of aluminum phthalocyanine (NP-AlPc) were also used.

© 2018 Russian Electronic Journal of Radiology. All rights reserved. Purpose. The literature data and the results of our own research, which demonstrate the possibilities of using radiological research methods for the analysis of the lungs lesions in deceased patients, are presented. It is shown that the postmortem computed tomography (CT) allows to identify abnormalities of the chest bones, as well as to establish the presence, precise localization and volume of gas and air accumulations, including pneumothorax. The literature data on the comparison of postmortem CT lung characteristics, including the density of their tissue, with data of histological examination of lung preparations and causes of death in adult patients, are presented. It is noted that postmortem magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is more expedient for the detection of the lungs pathology in dead fetuses and deceased newborns. The possibilities of postmortem MRI for the diagnosis of congenital pneumonia, hemorrhages in the lung tissue, pulmonary edema, hydrothorax, as well as for differential diagnosis of stillbirth and the death of a living newborn are shown. Differential diagnostic signs of pulmonary artery thromboembolism and postmortem blood clots are indicated. The possibilities of postmortem CT and MRI for noninvasive determination of the sizes and weight of the lungs, including for assessment of pulmonary hypoplasia in newborns with congenital diaphragmatic hernia, are described. It is concluded that the postmortem radiological methods of investigation can be used to analyze of the lung lesions and determine the causes of death. The combined use of CT and MRI is recommended for a full analysis. It is emphasized that postmortem radiological examination can not be an alternative to pathological and forensic autopsy. Radiological methods should be used as a supplement to the autopsy, including as a kind of "guide" for a better definition of pathological processes during the autopsy.

It is discussed the present of cognitive impairment in this category of patients. The data of functional MRI are analyzed, and these results allow taking a fresh look at the origin of clinical disorders in this condition. The importance of cerebral connections disruption is emphasized. It is focused on the fact that in the functioning of the central nervous system the spontaneous activity of the brain has a significant importance. Separately is analyzed "the resting state". It is concluded that MHE, despite its minimal manifestations, is a clinically significant condition requiring attention of a specialists. With that, it is often not diagnosed on time in clinical practice, which could lead to more severe damage of the cerebral functions. As evidenced by the data obtained at the present time, quite extensive changes in the neuronal activity are underlid of the cognitive deficit.

© Russian Journal of Cardiology. In the article, an analysis provided of recent views on the overtraining syndrome by the data from local and foreign publications. The witness of the problem actuality is also an existence of controversial opinions and absence of clear definitions on properties of the condition. It has been revealed that the main role in pathogenesis of the overtraining syndrome do play the changes of cardiovascular, endocrine and central nervous systems. These changes are complicated and ambiguous, depend upon multiple factors, as the type of sport, specifics of exertion and loads, stage of pathophysiological process. Entraining effect of exertion, if incorrectly utilized, underestimation of current condition of a sportsman, might not lead to expected results. Moreover, non-rational application of exertion might lead to opposite effect, that is, to decrease adaptation potential and reserves, towards the edge of the condition as an overtraining syndrome, which shows phasic, progressing character, starting from fatigue and mild disorders, to persistent, rigidly reversible processes. Due to controversy, multiple stages and multifactorial of the overtraining syndrome, by now there is no unified approach to its definition, as no unified standards to its diagnostics, treatment and prevention.

© 2018 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. In this paper, we study a new numerical method for the solution of partial differential equations on evolving surfaces. The numerical method is built on the stabilized trace finite element method (TraceFEM) for the spatial discretization and finite differences for the time discretization. The TraceFEM uses a stationary background mesh, which can be chosen independent of time and the position of the surface. The stabilization ensures well-conditioning of the algebraic systems and defines a regular extension of the solution from the surface to its volumetric neighborhood. Having such an extension is essential for the numerical method to be well defined. The paper proves numerical stability and optimal order error estimates for the case of simplicial background meshes and finite element spaces of order m \geq 1. For the algebraic condition numbers of the resulting systems we prove estimates, which are independent of the position of the interface. The method allows that the surface and its evolution are given implicitly with the help of an indicator function. Results of numerical experiments for a set of 2D evolving surfaces are provided.

© 2018, © 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. A growing body of evidence has hinted at the involvement of the largest gene of the circadian clock family, NPAS2, in the regulatory mechanisms underlying the link between metabolic diseases and circadian rhythm disruption. We tested whether one of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in NPAS2 (rs4851377) is associated with obesity and alternations of sleep times in 126 male rotational shift workers (bus drivers). We confirmed positive association of Body Mass Index (BMI) with the difference between free and working days in sleep times, but this difference was smaller in the homozygotes for the minor allele. Moreover, BMI above 30 (obesity) was revealed in the majority of these homozygotes and in the minority of homozygotes for the major allele (11 of 21 or 52.4% and 3 of 40 or 7.5%, respectively). Further studies are required to replicate these results and to elucidate the mechanisms linking NPAS2ʹpolymorphism in with obesity in shift workers.

Мы изучили незначительные варианты в двух популяциях вируса клещевого энцефалита (TBEV) с общим предком: адаптированный к мозгу вариант EK-328c и адаптированный к клещу вариант M. Высокопроизводительное секвенирование с помощью пользовательских ампликонов из вирусной РНК ОТ-ПЦР был выполнен на химии Illumina MiSeq 2 * 250 парный конец v2. Используя программу LowFreq (настройки по умолчанию) и последовательный консенсус Сангера в качестве эталона, были идентифицированы варианты с изобилием 1% и выше в исследуемых популяциях. Используя полученные данные в контексте наших предыдущих исследований, мы пришли к выводу, что варианты TBEV, которые отличаются от основного популяционного фенотипа и могут стать основной частью вирусной популяции при благоприятных условиях окружающей среды, могут существовать в количестве менее 1% в долгосрочной перспективе.
