© 2020 Objective: The association between the most severe types of placenta accreta spectrum disorders and caesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) poses the question of whether early diagnosis may impact the clinical outcome of these anomalies. The aim of this study is to report the outcome of cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) diagnosed in the early (≤9 weeks) versus late (>9 weeks) first trimester of pregnancy. Study design: Medline, Embase and Clinicaltrail.gov databases were searched. Studies including cases of CSP with an early (≤9 weeks of gestation) compared to a late (>9 weeks) first trimester diagnosis of CSP, followed by immediate treatment, were included in this systematic review. The primary outcome was a composite measure of severe maternal morbidity including either severe first trimester bleeding, need for blood transfusion, uterine rupture or emergency hysterectomy. The secondary outcomes were the individual components of the primary outcome. Random-effect meta-analyses were used to combine data. Results: Thirty-six studies (724 women with CSP) were included. Overall, composite adverse outcome complicated 5.9 % (95 % CI 3.5−9.0) of CSP diagnosed ≤9 weeks and 32.4 % (95 % CI 15.7−51.8) of those diagnosed >9 weeks. Massive hemorrhage occurred in 4.3 % (95 % CI 2.3−7.0) of women with early and in 28.0 % (95 % CI 14.1−44.5) of those with late first trimester diagnosis of CSP, while the corresponding figures for the need for blood transfusion were 1.5 % (95 % CI 0.6−2.8) and 15.8 % (95 % CI 5.5−30.2) respectively. Uterine rupture occurred in 2.5 % (95 % CI 1.2−4.1) of women with a prenatal diagnosis of CSP ≤ 9 weeks and in 7.5 % (95 % CI 2.5−14.9) of those with CSP > 9 weeks, while an emergency intervention involving hysterectomy was required in 3.7 % (95 % CI 2.2−5.4) and 16.3 % (95 % CI5.9−30.6) respectively. When computing the risk, early diagnosis of CSP was associated with a significantly lower risk of composite adverse outcome, (OR: 0.14; 95 % CI 0.1−0.4 p < 0.001). Conclusions: Early first trimester diagnosis of CSP is associated with a significantly lower risk of maternal complications, thus supporting a policy of universal screening for these anomalies in women with a prior cesarean delivery although the cost-effectiveness of such policy should be tested in future studies.

© 2020 Wiley Periodicals LLC The homeostasis of intracellular pH (pHi) affects many cellular functions. Our previous study has established a functional and molecular model of the active pHi regulators in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). The aims of the present study were to further quantify passive pHi buffering power (β) and to investigate the effects of extracellular pH and Na+–H+ exchanger 1 (NHE1) activity on pluripotency in hiPSCs. pHi was detected by microspectrofluorimetry with pH-sensitive dye-BCECF. Western blot, immunofluorescence staining, and flow cytometry were used to detect protein expression and pluripotency. Our study in hiPSCs showed that (a) the value of total (βtot), intrinsic (βi), and CO2-dependent ((Formula presented.)) buffering power all increased while pHi increased; (b) during the spontaneous differentiation for 4 days, the β values of βtot and (Formula presented.) changed in a tendency of decrease, despite the absence of statistical significance; (c) an acidic cultured environment retained pluripotency and further upregulated expression and activity of NHE1 during spontaneous differentiation; (d) inhibition on NHE1 activity promoted the loss of pluripotency. In conclusion, we, for the first time, established a quantitative model of passive β during differentiation and demonstrated that maintenance of NHE1 at a higher level was of critical importance for pluripotency retention in hiPSCs.

© 2020 Elsevier Inc. Objective: Conflicting data exist on the effect of dexmedetomidine on delirium. For the present study, a randomized trial was performed to investigate the effect of perioperative dexmedetomidine on the rate of postoperative delirium after cardiac surgery. Design: A randomized controlled trial. Setting: University hospital. Participants: Patients (n = 169) undergoing elective cardiac surgery (coronary artery bypass graft surgery, valve surgery, or combined surgery) with cardiopulmonary bypass. Interventions: Patients received a sevoflurane-based general anesthesia and were randomly assigned 1:1 to receive a dexmedetomidine infusion that started in the operating room (0.7 μg/kg/h) and continued into the intensive care unit (0.4 μg/kg/h) or an equivolume infusion of placebo. Measurements and Main Results: A decrease in the rate of delirium in the dexmedetomidine group compared with the placebo group was demonstrated (6 of 84 [7.1%] v 16 of 85 [18.8%]; p = 0.02; odds ratio [OR] 0.33 [95% confidence interval {CI} 0.12-0.90]). Reduced intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stay also were observed (18 [18-22] hours v 22 [18-39] hours; p = 0.002 and 17 [7-20] days v 19 [8-21] days; p = 0.04, respectively). Mortality at 30 days was 2 (2.4%) in both groups. On multivariate analysis, only dexmedetomidine administration (OR 0.24 [95% CI 0.08-0.74]) and cardiopulmonary bypass time (OR 1.02 [95% CI 1.01-1.03] for increases of 1 min) were independent predictors of delirium development. Conclusions: Dexmedetomidine administered during and after general anesthesia for cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass decreased the rate of postoperative delirium and intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stay.

© 2020 Elsevier B.V. Background: The present study focuses on investigation of Intra-articular PDT mechanisms for OA treatment. Also, a search for determination of the most effective dose of chlorin e6 (Ce6) for anti-inflammatory PDT of OA was carried out. Methods: The study was carried out on laboratory animals (11 Chinchilla rabbits, 1 year, 2.5 kg) with a gonarthritis model of post-traumatic OA. According to the instructions for using Photoditazin (Ce6 based PS) for PDT of human oncological and non-oncological diseases, the recommended dose is 0.7–1.2 mg/kg. For studies on rabbits, taking into account the conversion coefficient (3.2), the PS doses of 2.4, 3.2 and 6.4 mg/kg were selected. Fluorescence spectra were measured intra-articular before and after PDT using spectrometer with fiber-optic probe. The intrajoint PDT was carried out using a laser (662 ± 10 nm) and a fiber-optic catheter with a cylindrical diffuser inside a sapphire needle for a uniform distribution of the laser radiation. The immunohistochemical study was carried out by staining the samples with caspase-3. Results: Histological and immunohistochemical analysis showed that the best PS dose for intravenous administration for PDT of rabbit gonarthritis is 3.2 mg/kg. The PS concentration directly in the synovial tissue was 0.5 mg/kg, and this was enough to achieve the most positive results to reduce the caspase-3 level. Conclusion: The caspase-3 level correlates well with other signs of inflammation in the synovial membrane (edema, etc.). Therefore, to assess the PDT effectiveness in the treatment of gonarthritis accompanied by synovitis, it is sufficient to analyze only for caspase-3. The efficacy of PDT with Ce6 showed that 3.2 mg/kg PS dose (1 mg/kg for a human) is the most effective.

© 2019, International League of Associations for Rheumatology (ILAR). Abstract: Streptococcus is well associated with a myriad of inflammatory diseases. Among others, this bacterium is linked to the triggering of psoriasis and to post-streptococcal reactive arthritis (PSRA), an arthritis which is typically confined to peripheral joints. Three patients who developed acute psoriatic spondyloarthritis (SpA) following a recent streptococcal infection are described in this article. We searched the existing literature for cases of axial involvement in PSRA and reviewed the association between streptococcal infection and psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis )PsA). In all patients, psoriatic SpA occurred within 7–10 days of a confirmed streptococcal infection. The main presenting syndrome was inflammatory back pain with evidence of acute axial spondyloarthritis on magnetic resonance imaging. One patient had guttate psoriasis, the second patient developed pustular psoriasis, and the third patient had exacerbation of pustular palmoplantar psoriasis. Two patients required treatment with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) blockers. Axial involvement in PSRA is very rare. A potential association of streptococcal infection and development of PsA has been explored in several articles. However, to the best of our knowledge, acute psoriatic SpA as a manifestation of PSRA has yet to be described. Acute psoriatic SpA should be considered in the differential diagnosis of new-onset inflammatory back pain followed by psoriasis in young adults who had a recent throat infection. Key Points: • Our case series describes three cases of acute psoriatic spondyloarthritis that occurred within 7–-10 days of a confirmed streptococcal infection and progressed to full blown chronic disease. • Acute psoriatic spondyloarthritis as a manifestation of post streptococcal reactive arthritis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of new onset inflammatory back pain followed by psoriasis in young adults who had a recent throat infection.

We previously reported significant association between a single nucleotide polymorphism in PER3 (rs2640909) and Morning but not Evening Lateness scale of the Sleep–Wake Pattern Assessment Questionnaire. To further explore such a scale-specific relationship, seven single nucleotide polymorphisms in five circadian clock genes were studied using exploratory and confirmatory samples (in total, n = 698). The association of rs2640909 with Morning Lateness scale was not replicated in the confirmatory sample but remained significant in the merged sample. Moreover, we found and confirmed an association of this scale with rs1159814 in RORα. The results provided further evidence for differential relationship of polymorphisms in circadian clock genes with morning and evening components of morning–evening preference. We also suggested possibility to take into account the pattern of geographic variation in allele frequency for prioritization of circadian clock polymorphisms in candidate gene studies.

Objective: to study potantial of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIP) as method of cardioprotection during coronary artery bypass surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and anesthesia with propofol. Materials and methods. We included in this study 87 patients (7 were excluded) with ischemic heart disease, hospitalized in the clinic of aortic and cardiovascular surgery of the I. M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University clinical hospital № 1. All patients had indications for direct myocardial revascularization by coronary artery bypass surgery. One day before operation patients were randomly assigned to 2 groups depending on preparation scheme: main group of RIP and the control group. The frequency of complications during surgery and in the postoperative period was assessed. Troponin I level was measured before, and in 2 and 24 hours after surgery. The level of lactate in the venous blood was measured before and after surgery. Results. Numbers of intraoperative and early postoperative complications in the main and control groups were similar. There were no differences between groups in troponin I and lactate levels after surgery. Conclusions. Remote ischemic preconditioning has no effect on the outcome of coronary artery bypass surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass and anesthesia with propofol.

The purpose of the study was to assess the impact of toothpastes containing hydroxyapatite and fluoride on enamel caries resistance and remineralization rate. Study groups comprised 160 patients divided in 2 groups of 80 patients: 40 - at the age of 15-17 and 40 at the age of 18-25 who have been using toothpastes with hydroxyapatite and fluoride during 1 year. The plaque determination was carried out with the use of OHI-S and Turesky indexes. Litmus test pieces were used to determine oral fluid pH. The clinical determination of enamel remineralization rate, dynamics of acid resistance of enamel were carried out. Oral hygiene at baseline examination was poor in both groups. After oral hygiene training, there was a tendency towards indexes decrease more pronounced in the 18-25 age group regardless of the composition of the toothpastes used. Mean baseline oral fluid pH in the observation group was 6.5±0.4, in the comparison group - 6.8±0.4. By the end of the trial there was a tendency towards the increase of the oral fluid pH, which were 7.3±0.3 and 7.7±0.3, respectively. The enamel acid resistance of the patients of the observation group was significantly higher (p>0.05) compared with the group of patients using fluoride toothpaste, as well as the proportion of patients in whom the enamel recovery occurred within 24 hours (47.5% vs. 22.5%, respectively).

Materials and methods. We have analyzed treatment strategy used in patients with NSTEACS hospitalized in cardio-reanimation department of a city hospital during one month in two successive years (January 2014 and November 2015). We have compared indications to, and timing of coronary angiography, numbers of performed percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting surgeries. Results. Portion of patients subjected to invasive procedures in 2014 was 26 %, in 2015-42 %. All 32 primary procedures were PCIs. An increase was due to delayed interventions (24-72 hours), which were not performed in 2014. We also more often used selective multivessel coronary stenting, what facilitated availability of invasive treatment for elderly patients. Hospital mortality of patients with NSTEACS decreased from 16 to 7 %.

Treatment of multifocal atherosclerosis with lesions of the coronary and peripheral arteries requires coordinated work of the multidisciplinary team of doctors. Critical ischemia of the lower limbs requires urgent revascularization in order to prevent limb amputation. However, it is not always possible to perform revascularization using specialists of the same profile – endovascular or surgical. The use of hybrid methods of treatment (surgical and endovascular) allows to significantly improve the prognosis in saving the limb. The article presents a clinical observation of successful multistep treatment of a patient with acute coronary syndrome in combination with critical ischemia of the lower limb. The first stage was performed by multiple stenting of the coronary arteries with bioabsorptive scaffolds; the second stage was the hybrid treatment – femoral-tibial bypass with simultaneous recanalization and angioplasty of the lower leg arteries with good postoperative and long-term outcome.

These drugs increase BDNF level in CNS and adult hippocampal neurogenesis, which events are in common for both NMDA receptor modulators and classical antidepressants. However, unlike classical antidepressants, drugs of this new group produce no direct influence on the monoaminergic system, but regulate the neuroplasticity in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus via modulation of the glutamatergic neurotransmission. Clinical tests of ketamine and rapastinel confirmed the rapid onset of action and the continuation of stable antidepressant effect (upon single administration per 7 days) for both usual and treatment-resistant forms of depression.

The purpose of our study was to assess the efficiency of toothpaste 'Intensive strengthening of supersensitive teeth with nano-GAP' INNOVA and the suspension 'Liquid Enamel' INNOVA on the sensitivity of teeth with gingival recession. We examined 40 people aged 20-25 years. Each group consisted of 20 people: 10 women, 10 men. The first group (observations) used the paste and the suspension for 14 days, and the second group (comparisons) cleaned teeth only with a brush without a paste. Schiff aerial test was performed to assess the rate of hypersensitivity. As a result of the study, it was found that the combination of paste and liquid suspension with nano-hydroxyapatite for 14 days effectively reduced the hypersensitivity of the teeth with gingival recession that was shown by a statistically significant decrease in the Schiff index in the observation group. Thus, this combination is the method of choice in the treatment of hyperesthesia and can be used as an alternative substitute therapy.

Aim — the study purpose was to analyze the efficacy of intra-arterial administration of verapamil (IAV) in the treatment of angiospasm in SAH patients and to determine optimal parameters of the procedure. A number of studies demonstrated the efficacy of intra-arterial administration of vasodilators, in particular verapamil, in the treatment of angiospasm after aneurysmal SAH, which served the basis for inclusion of this method in the recommended protocol for treatment of SAH patients [1―7]. Material and methods. We analyzed the efficacy of IAV in 35 patients in the acute period of SAH, with 77.2% of the patients having a Hunt-Hess score of III―V. The inclusion criteria were as follows: IAV within two weeks after SAH; excluded aneurysm; verapamil dose per administration of at least 15 mg; follow-up for at least three months. Efficacy endpoints were as follows: changes in spasm according to angiography and transcranial dopplerography (TCDG); development of ischemic lesions; clinical outcome according to the modified Rankin scale. Results. A total of 76 IAV procedures were performed. The verapamil dose per procedure was 36.7±9.7 mg, on average; the number of procedures varied from 1 to 5. One arterial territory was treated in 12 cases, two arterial territories were treated in 48 cases, and three arterial territories were treated in 15 cases. Typical adverse reactions included decreased blood pressure, a reduced heart rate, and elevated ICP. In all cases, TCDG revealed signs of reduced angiospasm ― a 20―40% decrease in the LBFV in the M1 MCA. Four (11.4%) patients died; of these, only one died due to angiospasm progression. On examination at 3 months or more after discharge, favorable outcomes were observed in 74.3% of cases. Conclusion. IAV is associated with a low risk of significant complications. IAV should be performed under control of systemic hemodynamics and ICP. The indications for IAV include signs of moderate worsening or severe angiospasm according to TCDG and/or angiography. The IAV procedure may be performed every day. Further clarification of the IAV procedure and evaluation of clinical outcomes under prospective study conditions are required.

AIMS: On the basis of echocardiography to evaluate the thickness of epicardial fat (TEF) in patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) and to establish a connection with the main indicators of laboratory and instrumental methods of research. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 76 patients, 43 patients with MS and 33 without MS.The average age of patients in the MS group at the time of inclusion in the study was 62.7±10.3 years in the control group (without MS) - 60±14.7 years. All patients underwent a comprehensive examination that included the collection of complaints, study of history, physical examination, anthropometric measurements, laboratory (including the study of the levels of caspase - 8, leptin in blood plasma enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using kits «Platinum ELISA») and instrumental examination (echocardiography, ultrasound examination of organs of small pelvis). TEF was determined using transthoracic echocardiography on the machine Acuson Sequoia 512. RESULTS: According transthoracic echocardiography was significantly higher in the group of patients with MS and was 4.67±1.7 mm, as compared to 2.66+1.15 mm in the control group (p<0.001). Identified moderate and strong correlation between TEF and weight of the patients, waist circumference, ratio of waist circumference to hip circumference, body mass index, glucose levels in the blood plasma, the presence of diabetes mellitus type 2, ultrasonic signs of steatosis of the liver and pancreas, increased aminotransferases, the level of caspase-8 concentration in plasma leptin. Patients the MS group with increased TEF increases the risk of developing hypertension, ischemic heart disease, left ventricular hypertrophy, diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle type 2, level of caspase-8 and concentration in plasma leptin. CONCLUSION: Based on the obtained data, the measurement of TEF is justified in patients with MS in everyday clinical practice. The correlations between theTEF and the clinical and metabolic parameters of the CVD and MS make it possible to consider the TEF as a new marker of the risk of developing MS and cardiovascular diseases.

The purpose of this study was to assess the level of apoptosis in cells of human seminiferous tubules in normal and pathological spermatogenesis by revealing the proportion of immunostaining cells for caspase-9 and -3 and by comparing the expression of pro-apoptotic (BAK and BAX) and anti-apoptotic genes (BCL2 and BCLW). A retrospective study involved men (n = 42) who complained of childlessness in marriage for 2 years with a diagnosis of idiopathic infertility, established after physical, genetic, biochemical (hormones) and cytological (spermogram) analyzis. The biopsies of the testes as well as the autopsy material of men 22—35 (n = 10), 64—75 (n = 10) and 75—90 (n = 10) years were studied using the immunohistochemical method (caspase-9 and -3) and PCR-RT. The marking level for caspase-9 in spermatogonies with normal spermatogenesis is approximately at the same level (the proportion of stained spermatogonies is 39.5 0.33 % in young men, 35.6 0.44 % in the elderly, and 32.2 0.28 % in man of senile age), and increases when the maturation is blocked and in the case of focal variant of Sertoli-cell-only syndrome (64.3 0.39 and 72.0 0.41 %, respectively). When using antibodies to caspase-3, the percentage of immunopositive spermatogonia in normal spermatogenesis was 60.1 0.44 % in young men, 78.2 1.2 % in the elderly, and 87.3 0.9 % in men of senille age, and with idiopathic infertility, a sharp increase in the proportion of labeled spermatogonia was observed (an average of 91.4 1.1 %). In the case of hypospermatogenesis and the blocking of maturation, a significant increase in the relative level of expression of the proapoptotic genes of the internal pathway of apoptosis of BAX and BAK was observed against the background of a decrease in the expression of the anti-apoptotic genes BCL2 and BCLW, compared to men of the same age but with normal spermatogenesis. Based on the results, we can conclude that in the elderly’s testes the receptor-mediated pathway of apoptosis predominates over the mitochondrial (internal) pathway. In the idiopathic form of male infertility the internal pathway of apoptosis is dominant. An increase in the activity of apoptosis markers can be associated with impaired maturation of the germ cells in the meiosis block and with the depletion of the germ cell pool in Sertoli-cell-only syndrome.

Membranous nephropathy (MN) is one of the most common causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults and is classified as either primary (idiopatic) or secondary MN according to underlying etiology (the later result from some known disease such as systemic autoimmune diseases, infections, malignancies, drugs, etc). In recent years, phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R) and thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing 7A (THSD7A) were identified as two major podocytic antigens involved in the pathogenesis of idiopatic MN (IMN). And the discovery of circulating antibodies specific for these target antigens has transformed the diagnostic workup and significally improved management of IMN. However why do such antibodies develop is not conclusively established. The role of underlying genetic factors is discussed. The review presents the results of recent studies, that have shown significant associations of specific genetic factors (particularly human leucocyte antigen class II and PLA2R1 genes) with IMN.

© Russian Journal of Cardiology. Aim. To assess possibility and safety of intervalic hypoxic-hyperoxic training (HHT) as a method of cardioprotection and metabolic adaptation of myocardium for onpump coronary bypass surgery. Material and methods. Totally, 80 coronary heart disease patients included, hospitalized to the clinics of aortic and cardiosurgery of the University hospital of Sechenov University. All had indications for the operation — direct myocardial revascularization with bypass grafting. In 5 days before surgery, according to the scheme of preparation, the patients were randomized to two groups (main — with HHT, and controls; n=40). The rate of complications was evaluated, during the operation and in post-surgery period. The level of troponin I was measured before operation, in 2 and 24 hours after, as well as level of lactate in venous blood before and after operation. Results. The rate of intra- and early postsurgery complications in both groups did not differ significantly, though in the main there was tendency to decline of total rate of complications. In patients of HHT group median troponin I was significantly lower: 1,068 (0,388; 1,397) ng/L, when in controls — 1,980 (1,068; 3,239) ng/mL, р=0,012. Lactate level after HHT operation was significantly lower — 1,74 (1,23; 2,04) mM/L, comparing to the controls — 2,10 (1,80; 2,29) mM/L, р=0,04. Conclusion. The applicability and safety were demonstrated, of HHT as a method of cardioprotection in shunting of coronary arteries on-pump. Taken low number of participants, it is important to conduct broader investigation on this type of entrainment.
