[Antiresorptive activity of pharmacological chondroitin sulfate in the older age group].
The prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA) increases in proportion to age, so in the population of people over 65 years of age. The pathogenesis of OA is based on inflammation of the cartilage tissue of the joint, which leads to damage to the cartilage, activation of signaling pathways and increased levels of cytokines. ⋯ The use of drugs based on pharmaceutical chondroitin sulfate (Chondroguard) contributes not only to the reduction of pain in OA, but also has a positive effect on the processes of inflammation, including those associated with age-related changes in the body.

[Pericarditis in contemporary therapeutic clinic: nosological spectrum, approaches to diagnosis and treatment].
To analyze the register of pericarditis in a therapeutic clinic, to evaluate their nosological spectrum, to optimize approaches to diagnosis and treatment. ⋯ During a special examination, the nature of pericarditis was established in 97% of patients. Morphological and cytological diagnostics methods play the leading role. Tuberculosis pericarditis, infectious-immune and pericarditis in systemic diseases prevailed. Infectious immune pericarditis is characterized by small and medium exudate without restriction and accompanying myocarditis. Steroids remain the first line of therapy in most cases. Hydroxychloroquine as well as colchicine can be successfully used in moderate / low activity of immune pericarditis and as a long-term maintenance therapy after steroid stop.

Type 2 diabetes is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and varying degrees of insulin resistance and insulinopenia. Achieving targeted glycemic control in diabetic patients is important to reduce the risk of late complications, and many patients with type 2 diabetes ultimately require insulin therapy to maintain adequate glycemic control. ⋯ However, there is considerable therapeutic inertia in clinical practice, both with respect to initiation of insulin therapy and titration of the basal insulin dose. The longer duration of action, reduced glucose variability and a lower risk of hypoglycemia seen with the latest generation of basal insulin analogs compared to the previous generation simplify titration and may increase patient compliance.

Study of the remodeling of the carotid arteries with violation of intracardiac hemodynamics in patients with MFA, and the estimation of the main parameters of dyslipidemia, apoptosis, and oxidative stress in patients with high vascular risk older age group (6175 years) in a Regional vascular center of Ufa. ⋯ The construction of a three-cluster model in patients at high vascular risk of the elderly age category showed the interaction of cardio-carotid comorbid background on the clinical diversity of systemic vascular lesions in MFA with the development of remodeling of the main arteries and disorders of intracardiac hemodynamics associated with laboratory changes in the assessment of the main parameters of dyslipidemia, apoptosis markers, oxidative stress.

[Detection of kidney dysfunction potential biomarkers with hypertension in the persons of 25-45 years].
To assess the significance of symmetrical dimethylarginine (SDMA), uromodulin, retinol-binding protein 4 (RSB-4), transforming growth factorb1 (TGF-b1), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) as kidney dysfunction potential biomarkers persons with hypertension in persons 2545 years old. ⋯ The results of the study made it possible to consider SDMA, RSB-4, TGF-b1 as potential biomarkers of renal dysfunction in hypertension in persons 2545 years old.
