A091: Proprioception and Strength No Longer Correlate with Mediolateral
Stability Among Individuals with Functional Ankle Instability
Authors: Liu Yanhao , Shen Peixin , Song Qipeng
Published: January 2025

Background/Purpose: Dynamic stability deficit is one of the
strongest risk factors for ankle sprains. Proprioception and strength are
crucial for maintaining dynamic stability and preventing sprains during
sports and daily activities. The mechanisms by which humans maintain
anteroposterior (AP) and medial-lateral (ML) stability are different. The
correlations of AP and ML dynamic stability with its two factors, namely,
proprioception and strength, may explain the recurrent sprains among
individuals with functional ankle instability (FAI). The purpose of this
project was to investigate the correlations of AP and ML dynamic stability
with proprioception and strength within the two populations.

Method: This was a cross-sectional study. A total of 80
participants were recruited into FAI (n = 40) or non-FAI (n = 40) groups.
Dynamic stability was represented by time to stability (TTS) in the AP and
ML directions and was measured by a force plate (AMTI, Inc., Watertown, MA,
USA). Ankle muscle strength was tested by a strength testing system (D.
& R. Ferstl GmbH, Hemau, Germany). Ankle proprioception was assessed by
a proprioception test device (Proprioception device, Sunny, China). Pearson
or Spearman correlations were used to determine the correlations of
proprioception and strength to dynamic stability within the two groups.

Results: Individuals with FAI (ankle plantarflexion, r =
-0.409, p = 0.009) and those without FAI (ankle plantarflexion, r = -0.348,
p = 0.028; ankle dorsiflexion, r = -0.473, p = 0.002) both demonstrated
correlations of strength to TTSAP; Individuals without FAI
demonstrated correlations of proprioception (ankle inversion, r = 0.327, p =
0.040; ankle eversion, r = 0.354, p = 0.025) and strength (ankle eversion, r
= -0.479, p = 0.002) to TTSML, whereas those with FAI did
not.

Conclusion/Discussion: The ankle dorsiflexors and plantar
flexors could control backward and forward movements of the body to prevent
the center of mass from moving out of the posterior and anterior edges of
the support base, helping to maintain and restore AP dynamic stability
during movements. The disappearance of the relationship among individuals
with FAI infers that proprioception and strength deteriorated to a point
where they could not provide meaningful functional assistance to the ML
dynamic stability. Since most ankle sprains occur in the ML plane (mostly
during ankle inversion), this might reasonably explain the increased risk of
ankle sprains among individuals with FAI. In conclusion, strength was
correlated to AP dynamic stability among individuals with and without FAI;
Proprioception and strength were correlated to ML dynamic stability among
individuals without FAI, but not among those with FAI.
A094: The Impact of Aerobic Exercise Combined with Intermittent Fasting
on Alleviating Chronic Inflammation in Obesity
Authors: Wei Tonghui , Zhang Lei , Zhou Qingyuan , Yang Mengdi , Xue Yangxin , Cui Zhengqi
Published: January 2025

Research Aim: This study utilized aerobic exercise and
intermittent fasting as intervention strategies to investigate their effects
on the polarization of visceral fat macrophages and the amelioration of
chronic fat inflammation in rats with obesity.

Research Methods: Sixty male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats, aged 3
weeks, were randomly assigned to either a normal diet group (ND) or a
high-fat diet group (HFD). Following a 12-week intervention period, the
groups were further subdivided into the normal diet control group (ND),
high-fat diet sedentary group (HC), high-fat diet intermittent fasting group
(IF), high-fat diet aerobic exercise group (HE), and aerobic exercise
combined intermittent fasting group (HIE).

The aerobic exercise group underwent 10 weeks of medium-intensity training at
65% of their VO2max. The fasting group adhered to a 5:2 pattern,
involving a 24-hour fasting period every Wednesday and Saturday commencing
at 6 pm. During post-intervention, epididymal fat samples were collected,
and wet weights were recorded. HE staining facilitated the observation of
fat histopathology, while immunofluorescence staining was employed to
identify the expression and localization of macrophage polarization-related
proteins CD86 and CD206. Protein expression levels of IL-6, IL-10,
TNF-Α, iNOS, and Arg-1 in adipose tissue were determined through
Western blot analysis.

Research Results: 1) In comparison to the NC group, the HC
group exhibited a significant increase in epididymal adipose tissue weight
and adipocyte surface area. 2) Following a 10-week intervention, the
epididymal adipose tissue weight and adipocyte surface area in the HE, IF,
and HIF groups showed a significant decrease when compared to the HC group.
Notably, the HIF group demonstrated a more pronounced reduction. 3)
Furthermore, in comparison to the HC group, the HIF group displayed a
notable decrease in inflammation cells with a corona-like structure
infiltrating the stroma of adipocytes. The protein levels of IL-6 and
TNF-Α significantly decreased, while the IL-10 protein level exhibited
a significant increase. Moreover, the expression of CD86 and iNOS showed a
significant decrease, whereas CD206 and Arg-1 expression exhibited a
significant increase.

Conclusion: High-fat diet induces an increase in M1
polarization and a decrease in M2 polarization in rat adipose tissue,
triggering the onset of chronic inflammation. Following a ten-week
intervention, moderate-intensity aerobic exercise combined with intermittent
fasting proves was more effective in ameliorating chronic inflammation in
the adipose tissue of rats with obesity.

Published: January 2025

Background: Medical student syndrome (MSS) is a unique form of hypochondriasis observed in medical students, characterized by preoccupation with fears of having serious diseases based on misinterpreting bodily symptoms despite medical reassurance. Unlike hypochondriasis, MSS does not result in increased consultations. This phenomenon varies in prevalence among medical students compared to other health sciences students who do not study diseases as intensely. This study explores awareness of MSS and the prevalence of psychosomatic symptoms among medical and health sciences students in Saudi Arabia.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using online and face-to-face questionnaires, employing multistage and cluster sampling methods.
Results: The overall number of students collected is 383 students among all the medical students and other health science students the effect of MSS found higher in students of health science colleges.
Conclusions: The study highlights the high prevalence of MSS among health sciences students. It emphasizes awareness and risk factors.

Authors: Kamble Suhas Laxman , Kamble Raj Suhas , Jadhav Pradeep Dnyanprakash
Published: January 2025

Femoral neck fractures are a prevalent orthopedic challenge among the elderly, often associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and a decline in functional independence. Hemiarthroplasty, a surgical intervention that replaces the femoral head, is commonly employed for managing displaced femoral neck fractures in this demographic. This comprehensive review evaluates the outcomes of hemiarthroplasty, focusing on functional recovery, perioperative and long-term complications, and survival rates. The review highlights the critical role of surgical factors, including the choice between cemented versus cementless and bipolar versus unipolar prostheses, in influencing postoperative outcomes. Furthermore, patient-related factors such as age, gender, and comorbidities, along with the timing of surgery and the quality of postoperative care, are examined for their impact on recovery and mortality.

The article synthesizes evidence from peer-reviewed studies to provide insights into the efficacy of hemiarthroplasty in restoring mobility and improving quality of life, while also addressing common complications like infection, dislocation, and prosthesis loosening. Economic implications are discussed, emphasizing the cost-effectiveness of hemiarthroplasty compared to alternative treatments. By exploring predictors of both favorable and adverse outcomes, this review underscores the importance of personalized surgical planning and multidisciplinary postoperative management in optimizing patient outcomes. The findings aim to guide clinicians in making informed decisions and highlight areas for future research to enhance the care of elderly patients with femoral neck fractures.

Authors: Nero Alex , Sarin Gifty
Published: January 2025

This research explores the role of blockchain technologyin enhancingdata securitywithin modernsupply chains. As global supply chains become increasingly complex and vulnerable to risks such as fraud, counterfeiting, and data breaches, blockchain offers a promising solution to address these challenges. By leveraging its core features blockchain can improve transparency, trust, and traceability in supply chain operations. This study examines how these blockchain features can secure critical data elements, such as product provenance, inventory management, and financial transactions, ensuring their integrity and authenticity. The research also discusses the technical benefits of blockchain, including its ability to prevent unauthorized access, reduce fraud, and enhance collaboration among supply chain participants. Despite its advantages, the study identifies several limitations, including adoption barriers, scalability issues, and regulatory concerns. The findings suggest that while blockchain has the potential to revolutionize supply chain security, further research is needed to overcome these challenges and explore its broader applicability across various industries. Future studies should focus on improving scalability, exploring sector-specific implementations, and addressing the legal frameworks necessary for blockchain adoption.

Authors: Yadav Mohini , Mitali Soni
Published: January 2025

Human resource managers are taught the value of acting in a socially responsible manner by COVID-19 and giving employees social assistance and psychological recovery, which can foster a feeling of gratitude for the employers. The body of knowledge on HR roles and employee gratitude is fragmented and a gap still exists in understanding HR roles and employee gratitude in times of crisis. This scientific investigation attempts to trace the relationship between HR roles and employee gratitude during India's peak of the COVID-19 crisis. The sample consists of n=331 employees operating in the NCR of Delhi, India. A causal survey design was adopted to measure employee gratitude through analysis of quantitative data and was subjected to SPSS and AMOS. The results indicate a causal relationship between employee gratitude and four HR roles – HR communication, HR leader-member exchange, HR adaptive capacity & HR networking. This study has industrial implications.

Intertextuality in the book by Pavel Ulitin "Makarov scratches the back of his head"
Authors: Kiriakova Elena M.
Published: January 2025

The article attempts to analyze the ways of representing intertextuality using the book Makarov Scratches His Head by Pavel Ulitin as the material. The contextual method was employed to interpret the role of intertextuality during the research. Two most numerous groups of intertextual units were identified: intertextual inclusions in the form of proper names with precedent and intertextual inclusions from the variety of literary texts. These intertextual inclusions belong to various cultures: European, Russian, American, Chinese, and others. The broad cultural and historical context is further supplemented by intertextual inclusions in German, English, French, and Polish, which complicates the automatic perception of the text. Not all intertextual units referring to literary works are easy to identify while reading, as they correspond to the reproduced pretext to varying degrees. Intertextual inclusions acquire new shades of meaning, sometimes very personal ones. This complex text, constructed like a mosaic from his own and other people’s phrases, voices, and memories, with numerous intertextual units, serves as an example of the unique style of the writer. By using different voices and intertext as part of a hidden narrative and a means of self-censorship, Ulitin creates a coded text that does not appeal to the reader.
Artificial laughter: V. Pelevin’s "iPhuck 10"
Authors: Alqaisi Rashed Nizar Nather
Published: January 2025

The article is an attempt at studying the laughter of AI in V. Pelevin’s novel "iPhuck 10"(2017). Porfiry Petrovich’s laughter is examined from two angles, from its semantics and from its pragmatics. The problem of AI laughter in the novel leads not only to considering the possible capabilities of future AI, but also to the revelation of how laughter becomes a special kind of reality formation. The comic traits of Pelevin's hero are revealed by examining him based on modern AI models of laughter, the main feature of which is feigned humanity. By violating the reader's expectations on how he should behave, and by parodying his literary prototype, Porfiry creates a pretext for the reader to laugh. The second part of the article focuses on the meaning of Porfiry’s laughter in the novel. The apparent absence of the author due to the fact that he is an algorithm is refuted in the analysis, after which another narrator is revealed who controls Porfiry’s narrative. Playing with the author's death allows Porfiry to fit into the false image of a writer who supports freedom and resists authority. The analysis of laughter as a narration event helps identify how Porfiry's laughter becomes a propaganda tool. Porfiry mocks those who break the law and turns their crimes into funny stories, but his "mirthful" laughter allows him to fool the reader and makes him see the world the way he wants to.

Authors: Iswanto Agus , Lukluil Maknun Moch , Masfiah Umi , Wajdi Firdaus
Published: January 2025

This article intends to fill the lack of knowledge about Islamic intellectual traditions and networks in Bali by showing Islamic manuscripts found in an Islamic village in Karangasem Regency, namely Kampung Saren Jawa. Therefore, it is expected that the article can place the Islamic community in Bali and its Islamic intellectual tradition in the realm of discussion of Islamic scholarship in Indonesia, and Southeast Asia in general. The manuscripts were deemed copied around the 19th century and early 20th centuries. After describing various aspects of Islamic manuscripts found in Kampung Saren Jawa, such as materials of manuscripts, languages and scripts, colophons, and the contents of manuscript texts, we have argued that Islamic intellectual traditions in Bali relate to Islamic intellectual traditions outside of Bali, especially those that speak Malay and Javanese. An indication of the linkage of Islamic intellectual traditions in Bali with other regions, especially in the Malay world, is the discovery of several texts, which are the texts of Sufism, Fiqh, Tawhid, as well as religious literary texts written by famous scholars in the Malay world and has become popular texts until now
Local Wisdom as Halal Tourism Model in West Sumatera: an `Urf Perspective
Authors: Darlis Rusyaida
Published: January 2025

The purpose of this research is to explore the uniqueness of halal tourism in West Sumatra, including the development of such locally wise-based halal tourism, its harmony with `urf principles, and its advantages and disadvantages. By employing a qualitative research method, this research applies a case study approach to analyse halal tourism destinations in the region. The results of this research indicated that the uniqueness of halal tourism in the province of West Sumatra is attributable to the highly-coherent integration of religion and customs. This is reflected by the use of “gonjong,” a horn-like curved roof, in most of the mosques in the region; the wearing of "baju basiba," a traditional attire according to Islamic syariah guidance, by local women in traditional events; the tradition of “makan bajamba” feast, a communal dining to preserve manners and refined etiquette among the people; and the existence of traditional tourism villages with their historic and unique buildings. The evolving local wisdom forms a distinctive `urf that has become a living norm within the community and has developed into local regulations or laws
It’s a ‘plandemic’, not a pandemic: unraveling the discourse of a global conspiracy to destroy Islamic faith through COVID-19 health protocols
Authors: Irawan Andi Muhammad , Alamsyah Devy Kurnia , Iskandar Iskandar , Nasmilah Nasmilah , Hadisaputra
Published: January 2025

This paper aims to investigate the discursive arguments surrounding COVID-19 health protocols, particularly those related to prayer restrictions for Indonesian Muslims during the pandemic. The study highlights the importance of examining the development of contemporary Indonesian Islam and how particular Muslims address social and health issues that touch on sensitive religious matters through various religious interpretations. It explores how different religious sermons are discursively constructed by Muslim scholars to oppose the implementation of protocols restricting prayer, such as prayer distancing, mosque closures, and praying from home. The study employs topoi analysis as one approach in Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to examine how arguments are utilized in texts and talks to justify specific claims. The study finds that several topoi are used to justify the claim that COVID-19 is a ‘plandemic’ or a global conspiracy orchestrated by Judaism to destroy the Islamic faith. These arguments are specifically framed using the topos of enmity, faith, threat, or danger, definition or name-interpretation, and the topos of law.
Religion and Social Movements in Indonesia
Authors: Kuswana Dadang , Sumpena Deden , Hendra Hardiyan Syah Yoshy
Published: January 2025

This article examines the role of religion in contemporary social movements in Indonesia using the framework of relative deprivation theory. The phenomenon of religion-based social movements has become an integral part of the socio-political dynamics of post-Reformation Indonesia. This research presents three cases of significant religion-based social movements in Indonesia in the last decade. The cases chosen for in-depth analysis include: Action Defending Islam 2016-2017 (also known as the "212 movement"), the #2019ChangePresident Movement, and  the Movement to reject the 2020 Job Creation Omnibus Law. This study examines how perceptions of injustice and socio-economic inequality trigger mass mobilization based on religious identity. This research adopts a qualitative research method with a multiple case study design. Through critical analysis of three recent cases of social movements, this research reveals the complexity of the interaction between religious, economic and political factors in shaping collective action. The findings show that, while relative deprivation plays a significant role in motivating participation in religious social movements, contextual factors such as political opportunity structures and organizational resources also play an important role. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed in the context of efforts to build social cohesion and conflict management in a diverse Indonesia

Authors: Acharya Sumit , . Manisha , Nayak Priti Smita , Chatterjee Subhrajyoti , Anitha Ganisetti , Vinitha Mukhi , Bahuk Pratibha
Published: January 2025

Background: Cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L) Walp.] is one of the main vegetable crop, serving as an essential protein and carbohydrate source and lack of comprehensive information on genetic variability, correlation analysis, path analysis and genetic divergence all of which are necessary for focused breeding programmes that aim to improve cowpea cultivars. Methods: The present investigation was executed during Zaid 2024 to know morphological and genetic variations in cowpea genotypes. Qualitative and quantitative analysis among 22 genotypes revealed the existence of genetic diversity capability in studied genotypes. Result: The overall mean value of Shannon-Weaver diversity index was 1.284 which confirmed the existence of diversity among the genotypes. Among these, genotypes ‘IC-202926’, ‘IC-259071’, ‘C-1070’, ‘CP-732’, ‘Ankur Ketaki’, ‘Kashi Nidhi’ and ‘RHS-Kanakam’ and others stood out for their high green pod yield per plant. Traits like plant height and pod yield per plant showed high coefficients of variation (phenotypic and genotypic) indicating potential for improvement. Furthermore, high heritability coupled with substantial genetic advance was observed for Plant height (cm), pod diameter, chlorophyll content (mg/g), total vitamin C(mg/100g) and pod yield per plant(g). This suggests these traits are influenced by additive genes, making early generation selection effective. Pod diameter, number of pods per plant and 100 Seed weight emerged as the most crucial selection criteria for enhancing green pod yield in cowpea.

Authors: Sumitra Gugulothu , Rajkumara S. , Lamani Kumar D.
Published: January 2025

Background: Conservation tillage and residue mulch plays an important role in controlling weed and enhancing wheat yield. These practices reduce soil disturbance and suppress weeds, improving soil health and moisture retention. This leads to better crop growth and higher wheat productivity. Methods: A experiment was conducted during rabi 2020-21 and 2021-22 at MARS, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad to assess the effect of conservation tillage and residue mulch on weeds in wheat. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with 10 treatment combinations, including a randomized complete block design to compare outside control with treatment combinations. Result: Experimental results revealed that conventional tillage significantly reduced density of weeds. Conventional tillage decreased the total number of weeds and dry weight of weeds and higher weed control efficiency at 20, 40, 60 DAS and harvest stage, respectively. Conventional tillage significantly higher grain yield resulted lower weed index over minimum tillage. The high infestation of weeds under minimum tillage resulted in the lowest weed control efficiency among the tillage practices. Residue mulch application of glyricidia recorded lower number of weeds and dry weight of weeds. An increase in grain yield was registered with residue mulch application of glyricidia, maize, soybean and groundnut as compared to no residue. Glyricidia residue mulch recorded higher values of weed control efficiency and lower weed index. Based on the findings, it was concluded that conventional tillage with glyricidia residue mulch reduced population of mixed weed flora diversity and resulted in higher grain yield of wheat.

Handwritten Collection of Irkutsk Archpriest Fortunat Petukhov: The Reconstruction of the Composition and Problems of Search
Authors: Chernyshova N. K.
Published: January 2025

The purpose of the article is to present the handwritten collection of the Irkutsk archpriest Fortunat Ivanovich Petukhov (1789–1872), formed in the middle of the 19th century. The author has made an attempt 1) to reconstruct the composition of the manuscripts and documents of the collection, 2) to trace the ways of its formation, 3) to identify the features of the selection of manuscripts and to trace the degree of influence on the fate of the collection of the first presentation in the work by Moscow scholar N. P. Bocharov. Textual analysis of a number of works mentioned in the list has made it possible for other authors to attribute some of the texts presented by N. P. Bocharov as manuscripts of his collection, and not as the author’s works of Fr Fortunatus. We are talking about the well-known work of the Irkutsk local historian N. V. Semivsky, used for the autobiographical notes by F. I. Petukhov and as an integral part of other works by the archpriest, as well as about the manuscript of a much lesser-known work by another Irkutsk priest, Fr Nikifor Parnyakov. This gives reason to assume the possibility of a similar attribution of other works indicated by N. P. Bocharov with the name of F. I. Petukhov. Several manuscripts from the collection of F. I. Petukhov were published by the biographer as part of his book. The location of the collection of Archpriest Fortunatus Petukhov has not been found; the article suggests directions for searching for a possible repository – materials from the archival funds of Moscow monasteries, connected with the life and activities of people from Siberia – Zlatoust, Sretensky, etc., as well as searches for the personal archives of Fr Fortunatus’ descendants.

Authors:   Kazan Federal University, ZABIROVA KARINA R. , POPOVA NATALIA A. ,   Kazan Federal University, HAKIMOVA ALBINA R. ,   Kazan Federal University, KOROTKOVA ALESYA S. ,   Kazan State Medical University
Published: January 2025

Abstract. Introduction. Post-dural puncture headache is the most common complication of spinal anesthesia. It is a
headache caused by the loss of cerebrospinal fluid, appears or intensifies when taking an upright stance, decreases
upon taking a horizontal position, and is accompanied by at least one of the following symptoms: Pain and stiffness in
the neck, tinnitus, hearing loss, photophobia, and nausea. Despite the presence of numerous reviews on the prevention
and treatment of post-dural puncture headache, most of them do not provide any structured recommendations. The aim
of the study was to analyze the effectiveness of epidural blood patch. Materials and Methods. The article provides
a case report on a patient with a post-dural puncture headache, who was treated with using the epidural blood patch
technique. Results and Discussion. Patient S., 38 years old, complaining of a headache that worsens with verticalization,
turned to City Clinical Hospital No. 7 named after M.N. Sadykov. It is known from the anamnesis that on the day after
spinal anesthesia, when trying to verticalize, he felt a headache, that did not bother him while lying down. Infusion
therapy was performed with a temporary effect. Due to the ineffectiveness of conservative therapy at the previous
stage of treatment, it was decided to use an epidural blood patch. The clinical case presented demonstrates the need
for limiting the period of conservative treatment of postdural headache and high effectiveness of epidural blood patch
with rapid achievement of a clinical result. Conclusions. The advanced technique of epidural blood patch is much
more efficient for the treatment of post-dural puncture headaches, compared to conservative treatment methods. The
findings allow starting this procedure in a timely manner, improving the quality of patients’ life without wasting time on

Abstract. Introduction. External post-necrotic pancreatic fistulas can persist for months, worsening the quality of the
patient’s life. Conservative and minimally invasive treatment methods are priorities for this pathology, with the primary
focus on diagnosing and correcting intraductal hypertension. Aim. To present clinical observations on the minimally
invasive elimination of external pancreatic fistulas resulting from necrotizing pancreatitis. Materials and Methods.
We analyzed cases of 6 patients over 3 years with necrotic forms of acute pancreatitis that developed complications,
such as persistent external pancreatic fistulas. After having verified the fistula and corrected intraductal hypertension,
we performed sclerotherapy on these external fistulas. This article also describes the first one of these clinical cases.
Results and Discussions. In all six cases, we observed the rapid closure of chronic post-necrotic pancreatic fistulas and maintenance of the achieved effect over more than a year of follow-up. Conclusions. Experience of Russian and
foreign surgery colleagues shows the priority of using minimally invasive techniques in treating most complications
of necrotizing pancreatitis, particularly external pancreatic fistulas. Extensive surgical interventions in such patients
generally carry high risks. We were the first to apply sclerotherapy using aethoxysklerol for this complication; the
successful experience suggests its further application, alone or in combination with other minimally invasive techniques.

Abstract. Introduction. Sudden death remains a major public health problem causing death in 25–50% of patients
with a previous myocardial infarction. Studying and searching for new prognostic risk factors for sudden cardiac death
are an extremely difficult task. Atrioventricular dissociation may be one of the significant cardiac complications of acute
myocardial infarction in a patient diagnosed with a new coronavirus infection. Aim was to present a clinical case of
patient G. born in 1936 with sudden cardiac death registered during 24-hour electrocardiography monitoring, which was
preceded by arrhythmogenic myocardial activity and atrioventricular dissociation. Materials and Methods. Literature was
reviewed, and patient G.’s medical background was studied. Results and Discussion. Changes are shown that took
place in the in arrhythmogenic myocardial activity preceding asystole in patient G. born in 1936, who was hospitalized
with a diagnosis of coronary heart disease. Repeated myocardial infarction of the inferior wall of the left ventricle dated
November 11, 2023. Post-infarction cardiosclerosis (1986). Rhythm and conduction disturbances are a paroxysmal form
of atrial fibrillation. First-degree atrioventricular block, complete right bundle branch block. Hypertension stage 3, risk 4.
Controlled arterial hypertension. Target blood pressure 120-129/70-79 mm Hg. Hypertrophy of the walls and dilatation of
the cavities of the left ventricle and of the left and right atria. Chronic heart failure 2B (Simpson ejection fraction 29%).
Functional class III. Bilateral hydrothorax. Community-acquired right-sided pneumonia, severe. Respiratory failure
1-2. Type 2 diabetes mellitus, target glycated hemoglobin level below 8%. Chronic kidney disease C3a (glomerular
filtration rate 55 ml/min/1.73 m²). New coronavirus infection (PCR SARS-COV-2 diagnosed on November 21, 2023).
Conclusions. In the presented case report, electrophysiological instability of the myocardium preceding asystole in
patient G. was recorded on a long-term electrocardiogram recording, the patient having the verified leading risk factors
for sudden cardiac death, such as hemodynamically significant ventricular arrhythmias, myocardial infarction, episodes
of atrioventricular dissociation, heart failure with the reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, and coronavirus infection.

Abstract. Introduction. Since 2018, according to P.A. Herzen Moscow Oncology Research Institute, the following sites
have become the most common in terms of their detection: In women, breast cancer (51.5%) and uterine (endometrial)
cancer (18.9%); and in men, lung cancer (47.6%) and prostate cancer (41.6%). At the same time, there is a systematic
increase in the incidence of these four leading cancers, but oncologists are especially concerned about the high
neglecting level of these cancers. When analyzing the reasons for the high neglect of malignancies, the competence
and oncological alertness of medical personnel are mentioned most often, but little attention is paid to the influence

Abstract. Introduction. Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune neuromuscular disease mostly characterized by the
formation of antibodies to postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors, leading to weakness aggravated by physical activity.
Due to the high prevalence of coronary artery disease worldwide, there is a high probability of its development in patients
with myasthenia gravis. Physical training in patients after acute coronary syndrome has proven efficacy in improving
quality of life and the outcome. Currently, there is a lack of research in the safety of physical training in myasthenia
gravis, so cardiac rehabilitation of these patients is a unique challenge for clinicians. Aim of the study was to evaluate
the effect of rehabilitation measures in a patient with myasthenia gravis after coronary bypass grafting using bilateral
internal mammary arteries at the inpatient stage of medical rehabilitation. Materials and Methods. A clinical case of a
female patient after coronary bypass grafting using bilateral internal mammary arteries is presented, which has been
observed for 31 years due to myasthenia gravis (G70.0). The patient was examined by the specialists of a multidisciplinary
rehabilitation team, using clinical, laboratory, and instrumental research methods. After establishing the rehabilitation
diagnosis and potential, an individual medical rehabilitation plan was developed, which, against the background of
drug therapy, included: Electrocardiogram-guided aerobic physical training, laser therapy, and occupational therapy.
Results of the rehabilitation measures were assessed using the six-minute walk test (m), the Functional Independence
Measurement scale (points), and the QMGS (quantitative myasthenia gravis score for the assessment of the severity
of clinical myasthenia symptoms) scale. Results and Discussion. The patient tolerated 5 sessions of aerobic physical
training well, demonstrating a noticeable improvement in aerobic capacity, endurance, and physical activity test results.
No side effects were noted. Conclusions. Personalized physical training programs are feasible and effective in cardiac
rehabilitation of patients with myasthenia gravis. Further research is reasonable and necessary in the rehabilitation of
cardiac patients with concomitant autoimmune neuromuscular disease.
