Characterization of Carcass Color Differences Between Hens (Small Birds) and Meat-Type Male Pheasants (Large Birds)
Authors: Hwang Ko-Eun , Claus James R.
Published: April 2021

The underlying changes in hen carcass color upon freezing were compared with the color of meat-type male pheasants upon freezing. Chemical and physical assessments of these two pheasant types (n=5) and the effects of different chilling methods on hen carcasses (n=10) were evaluated. The results showed that hen carcasses exhibited more red pigmentation (myoglobin, hemoglobin), as well as significantly higher pH values and redness, than the carcasses from meat-type pheasants. The moisture content was higher in hens than in meat-type pheasants, especially in the skin. The intermediate fiber (IIA) type was the only type found in the pectoralis major muscle, regardless of pheasant type. Chilling method significantly changed the color attributes of the hen carcass. Immersion chilling decreased skin redness (less pigmentation and Commission Internationale de l ́Eclairage [CIE] a*); the breast meat was less red than that from the chilling-in-a-bag condition. The skin had substantially higher levels of red pigmentation than the breast muscles, irrespective of the pheasant type and chilling method (P < 0.05). Our findings suggest that the more intense red appearance may be related to a combination of greater residual hemoglobin levels and higher pH within the skin. The greater moisture content of the skin may have facilitated the development of greater transparency to the darker, more red breast muscle.

Published: April 2021

This study aimed at presenting the development and psychometric evidence of the Importance and Perception of Character Strengths Scale (IPCSS)-Professor Version. Two quantitative studies were conducted. In Study 1 the respondents were 214 college professors (mean age = 39.21; SD = 9.77; 55.6 % females), who answered the IPCSS-Professor and sociodemographic questions. Exploratory analysis suggested a one-factor structure for both subscales. Respondents in Study 2 were 262 college professors (mean age = 41.80; SD = 9.81; 50.8 % male). Confirmatory factor analysis suggested the adequacy of the six-factor structure theoretically proposed for both subscales after comparison with the alternative single-factor model. The IPCSS-Professor presented satisfactory reliability indexes and it is applicable for teachers of different sectors in order to understand their character strengths.

Monk Genshin (942-1017) went down in the history of Japanese Buddhism not only as a teacher of the Tendai school, who for the first time substantiated the teaching of Buddha Amida and the Pure Land, as a compiler of interpretations of sutras, treatises, sermons and many other works, but also as a hero of setsuwa didactic tales. Stories about him appear in the collection of legends about the miracles of the Lotus Sutra in the middle of the 11th century, then in the book of stories about the rebirth in the Pure Land and in the Konjaku monogatari shū of the early 12th century. Then, in almost all major collections of setsuwa, tales about Genshin are found, with the early detailed narratives being replaced by brief descriptions of individual episodes from his life. The stories talk about how Genshin from a temple monk became a hermit, about his relationship with his mother, about the works of the Buddhist scribe and his meetings with other monks and lay people, about miracles at the hour of his death. The peculiarity of these tales is that Genshin does not always appear in them as the main character: he often plays the more modest role of waki wanderer, a guest of other monks, priests and laity: in response to his questions, they reveal their understanding of the Buddhist path.
Transformation of global migration
Authors:   N.V. Shkrabtak Amur State University, Shkrabtak N.V.
Published: April 2021

In the context of the transformations of the modern world, the format of global population migrations is changing. This process is reflected in a slowdown in the growth of short-term movements. In high-income receiving countries, migrants were not rarely blamed for rising unemployment and declining social services. There is also widespread concern about brain drain from donor countries in Eastern Europe, the Western Balkans, the South Caucasus and Central Asia. The monograph focuses on the development of policies on the mobility of the workforce, and also presents trends that determine the factors and types of influence in the market of low-skilled and highly skilled workers. It is intended for specialists, as well as masters, graduate students and students of the relevant specialties of universities.
PUBLIC POLICIES FOR SOCIAL ASSISTANCE AND PSYCHOANALYSIS: questions about demand, desire, user, citizen and subject
Authors: Schuh Mariana , Mônego Renata Cecconello , Cappellari Amanda , Eichherr Letícia Maísa , Cruz Lílian Rodrigues da
Published: April 2021

This paper has emerged from concerns with the words subject, user, citizen, desire and demand, which are regularly used in the field of social assistance. In the light of Psychoanalysis, the aim is to analyze the way that those terms have emerged and been articulated in two documents involving practices by Psychology professionals in the sphere of the Unified Social Assistance System (SUAS): the National Policy for Social Assistance, and the Technical Note on Parameters for the performance of Psychology professionals in the Unified Social Assistance System. From both the number of times and the context in which those words appear, one can know possible meanings attributed to them. Subsequently, the paper problematizes the conditions found by Psychology professionals to provide those seeking for the service with a place they can express more than their demands, thus favoring the acknowledgement of the subjects in their desiring condition.
MENTAL SUFFERING AND HIGHER EDUCATION TEACHING IN NURSING
Authors: Sena Bruna Aderita Cortez de , Lima Ana Izabel Oliveira
Published: April 2021

The living and health conditions of workers were directly impacted by the restructuring of the world of work. The increase in demands and the accumulation of work has led teachers to suffer, as well as other workers. For this reason, the article discusses the psychodynamics of work and studies on the field of education that involve teaching mental suffering and its relationship with nursing, relating it to teachers' work and health conditions. The objective is to present an expanded analysis of the review findings in the context of national literature on the subject, anchored in the theory of psychodynamics at work and theoretical reflections inserted in the dialogue. It is a theoretical study of systematic review with a qualitative approach, about mental suffering in higher education teachers in nursing to obtain knowledge produced in the area. Suffering is approached in different ways in the literature and can have a positive or negative meaning, with work as a structuring element of negative or positive effects on the worker's mental functioning and mental life. It was identified, therefore, that the production of teaching work in nursing can make this professional activity sick and requires defensive strategies designed to search for adequate solutions, aiming at the mental health of these workers.
Policing orthodoxy on Wikipedia: Skeptics in action?
Authors: Martin Brian
Published: April 2021

Wikipedia has been accused of being biased against challengers to scientific orthodoxy due to efforts by editors having affinities with the Skeptics movement. Examination of Wikipedia, including entries on fluoridation, the origin of AIDS and vaccination, reveals several characteristics typical of a Skeptics sensibility, including the definition of scepticism, lists of deviant ideas, derogatory labelling of heterodox viewpoints, and categories established without reference to reliable sources.

Authors: Farah Freihat Abdel Razaq , Al-Shaar Ismail Hamad , Farhan Ayda
Published: April 2021

To ensure the independence of auditors and the credibility of financial statements, this study investigates if Jordanian manufacturing companies change their external auditors. Moreover, assess if that change is influenced by the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (ICEPA). The study figured out the viewpoints of external auditors and financial managers of public industrial companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange. Auditor’s changing data is gathered from the annual reports of (59) manufacturing firms from 2006 to 2015. (280) questionnaires were collected from financial managers and auditors of manufacturing firms to assess if auditors comply with ICEPA. The binomial test and the logistic regression analysis were used. The study showed that the change of the external auditor in Jordanian companies is significantly affected by the ICEPA. However, external auditors and financial managers have different views of the effects of the ICEPA on the change of the external auditor in Jordan.
Post-bioinformatic methods to identify and reduce the prevalence of artefacts in metabarcoding data
Authors: Drake Lorna , Cuff Jordan , Young Rebecca , Marchbank Angela , Chadwick Elizabeth , Symondson William
Published: April 2021

Metabarcoding provides a powerful tool for investigating biodiversity
and trophic interactions, but the high sensitivity of this methodology
makes it vulnerable to errors, resulting in artefacts in the final data.
Metabarcoding studies thus often utilise minimum sequence copy
thresholds (MSCTs) to remove artefacts that remain in datasets; however,
there is no consensus on best practice for the use of MSCTs. To mitigate
erroneous reporting of results and inconsistencies, this study discusses
and provides guidance for best-practice filtering of metabarcoding data
for the ascertainment of conservative and accurate data. The most common
MSCTs identified in the literature were applied to example datasets of
Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) and cereal crop spider (Araneae:
Linyphiidae and Lycosidae) diets. Changes in both the method and
threshold value considerably affected the resultant data. Of the MSCTs
tested, it was concluded that the optimal method for the examples given
combined a sample-based threshold with removal of maximum taxon
contamination, providing stringent filtering of artefacts whilst
retaining target data. Choice of threshold value differed between
datasets due to variation in artefact abundance and sequencing depth,
thus studies should employ controls (mock communities, negative controls
with no DNA and unused MID-tag combinations) to select threshold values
appropriate for each individual study.
Evidence for divergent selection and spatial differentiation in a putative zona pellucida gene is indicative of local adaptation in Pacific cod
Authors: Spies Ingrid , Drinan Daniel , Petrou Eleni , Spurr Rory , Hartinger Theodore , Tarpey Carolyn , Hauser Lorenz
Published: April 2021

Genetic differentiation has been observed in marine species even when no
obvious barriers to gene flow exist. The study of highly differentiated
outlier loci can provide information on how genetic variation might
contribute to local adaptation. A locus which aligned to a predicted
zona pellucida sperm-binding protein 3 gene (ZP3) in Atlantic cod was
previously identified in Pacific cod populations as a high
differentiation outlier. In other marine species, ZP3 is involved in
reproductive isolation, local adaptation, and has neofunctionalized as
an antifreeze gene, but the function of this genomic region is not
understood in Pacific cod. We sequenced a 544 bp region of ZP3 in 230
Pacific cod collected from throughout their geographic range. Here we
show that ZP3 haplotypes exhibit strong spatial structure and there is
evidence for divergent selection at this locus in samples collected from
the Bering Sea region. The potential for adaptation to different thermal
regimes is particularly relevant given that Pacific cod have
demonstrated high natural mortality during recent ocean warming events.
Optimization of cell wall disruption and lipid extraction methods by combining different solvents from wet microalgae
Authors: Arabian Daryush
Published: April 2021

Microalgae have emerged as one of the most promising options for
biodiesel production over the past few decades. Lipid extraction from
microalgae for biodiesel production as a bottleneck of biodiesel
production technology was the main purpose of this study. In this study
different methods of the cell wall disruption were compared. Then, two
methods of ultrasound and bead mill were used as methods of the cell
wall disruption. The maximum lipid extracted by ultrasound was 17.10%
and by bead mill was 15.16% (based on microalgae biomass dry weight).
After the cell wall disruption of microalgae, for lipid extraction,
chloroform-methanol solvent combination was used as a high extraction
method and hexane-ethanol solvent combination was used as an
environmentally friendly method. In this regard, the effect of solvent
to biomass ratio, temperature and extraction time was investigated and
the optimal results for chloroform-methanol solvent combination were 8
ml/g, 45°C and 60 minutes, respectively, and for hexane-ethanol
combination were 6 ml/g, 35◦C and 73 minutes, respectively. Under these
optimal conditions, the highest amount of extracted lipid from Chlorella
vulgaris with a moisture content of 87.50%, and ultrasound as a cell
wall disruption method were obtained 20.39% and 16.41% (based on
microalgae dry weight) with a combination of chloroform-methanol
solvents and hexane-ethanol respectively. Also the highest extraction
rates of 17.63% and 13.85% were obtained for the combination of
chloroform-methanol and hexane-ethanol solvents, respectively by bead
milling as cell wall disruption method

Published: April 2021

Pseudoaneurysms of the aorta are rare complications of cardiac surgery,
and sternal re-entry to address the pathology is particularly
challenging. In this case, we describe a rare presentation of thoracic
aortic pseudoaneurysm due to chronic erosion from a sternal wire, 10
years following the index operation. The patient was treated in
two-stages, including carotid-subclavian bypass, followed by sternal
re-entry with total arch replacement and frozen elephant trunk,
employing cardiopulmonary bypass via femoral and axillary cannulation.
Despite the high risks of rupture/haemorrhage associated with sternal
re-entry, operative success for aortic pseudoaneurysms can be achieved
with careful planning and safe bypass strategies.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MATERNAL ISCHEMIA MODIFIED ALBUMIN, NON STRESS TEST AND DOPPLER ULTRASONOGRAPHY IN FORESEEING PERINATAL ASPHYXIA
Authors: acet ferruh , celiloglu murat , akis merve , islekel gul huray
Published: April 2021

Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the importance of
ischemia changed albumin, in foreseeing fetal asphyxia and comparing it
between normal and preeclamptic pregnant. Method: We planned our study
as a prospective case-controlled study between May 2011 and June 2013.
We recruited 104 pregnant women complicated by preeclampsia and 110
healthy pregnant women in the study. Doppler ultrasonography, non-stress
test and fetal biometric measurements were performed. Venous blood
samples taken to measure ischemia modified albumin (IMA). The presence
of fetal hypoxia/acidosis was analyzed by conducting post-natal cord
blood gas examination and 1.-5. minutes APGAR scoring. Results: IMA
levels in the preeclamptic group were found statistically high
(p<0,0001). The correlations between umbilical artery doppler
systolic/diastolic (S/D) ratio, brain sparing effect, non stress test
and IMA analyzed. We have found IMA statistically high when S/D ratio is
above 2 standard deviations (preeclampsia; 11.83±1.33 vs 19.62±1.56
p<0.001, control; 10.28±1.57 vs 18.09±2.13 p<0.001)
or brain sparing effect started (preeclampsia; 25.59±2.48 vs 9.16±1.99
p<0.001, control; 16.37±1.97 vs 6.72± 1.53 p<0.001)
or abnormal NST findings occurred (preeclampsia; 10.69±1.92 vs
20.72±1.15 p<0.001, control; 7,42±1,94 vs 9,72±2,19
p<0.001). Conclusions: Maternal IMA levels are found high in
preeclamptic pregnant women and it can be used as a biomarker for
determining fetal wellbeing. What’s already known about this topic?
Hypertensive disease of pregnancy is the most frequently complication of
pregnancy, being 5-10%. It is the most important reason for perinatal
morbidity and mortality. Preeclampsia develops in an abnormal hypoxic
intrauterine environment characterized by reperfusion and oxidative
stress. To determine the fetal wellbeing, various tests were suggested,
yet many of them provided a few benefits. What does this article add?
The detected elevations in serum concentrations of IMA propose that
measurements of this biomarker may be useful in assessing fetal hypoxia
and predicting pregnancies which preeclampsia may develop
KEMUKJIZATAN AL-QUR'AN

Published: April 2021

Artikel ini mencoba untuk mendeskripsikan pandangan Muhammad Abdullah Darraz tentang i'jaz Al-Qur'an yang tertuang dalam karyanya, an-Naba' al-'Azim: Nazarat Jadidah fi al-Qur'an. Melalui karyanya, Darraz menegaskan hal-hal yang menjadi domain i'jaz Al-Qur'an sekaligus membantah orang-orang yang meragukan kebenarannya. Uniknya, pembahasan tentang i’jaz Al-Qur'an dalam kitab ini tidak hanya berbicara seputar doktrin-dokrtin teologis seperti keunggulan dan ketertandingan (al-mu'aradah), tantangan (at-tahaddi), ketidakmampuan menjawab tantangan (ar kal-mu'aradah) dan kelemahan (al-'ajz) yang bermuara pada sakralitas-cum-superiroritas Al-Qur'an. Ia bahkan mampu membawa pembahasan i’jaz ke ranah prinsip-prinsip interpretasi, yang pembahasannya tidak hanya bersifat teoretis-konseptual, melainkan juga aplikatif. Secara umum, butir-butir pemikirannya tentang i’jaz Al-Qur'an terpusat pada empat hal: (1) karakter uslub Al-Qur'an sangat mengagumkan yang meliputi keindahan bunyi dari rangkaian huruf dan syakl-nya, singkat namun padat makna, memuaskan akal dan jiwa, menggunakan lafal dengan ketepatan makna, dan menggunakan struktur kalimat yang beragam; (2) karakter wacananya yang bersifat suprarasional; (3) struktur maknanya saling menguntai; dan (4) mampu menyajikan ragam pemaknaan.
MUSHAF BAHRIYAH

Published: April 2021

Mushaf Bahriyah ditetapkan menjadi salah satu jenis Mushaf Standar Indonesia guna memfasilitasi santri atau masyarakat yang menghafal Al-Qur'an. Sistem pojok mushaf ini memberikan kemudahan dalam menghafal Al-Qur'an. Melalui studi lapangan dan literatur diperoleh gambaran bahwa Mushaf Bahriyah sebagai mushaf standar kurang mendapat respons dari masyarakat. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari sedikitnya penerbit yang mencetak mushaf ini. Penerbit Menara Kudus mencetak mushaf model Bahriyah, namun tidak bisa dimasukkan dalam kategori mushaf standar Bahriyah karena tidak mengikuti butir-butir yang distandarkan Kementerian Agama. Tetapi, mushaf Menara Kudus inilah yang banyak digunakan di pesantren untuk menghafal Al-Qur'an, karena memang jaringan pesantren dan distribusinya sudah terbangun. Seiring dengan maraknya penerbitan mushaf standar Usmani yang menggunakan sistem pojok yang menjadi ciri Bahriyah, mushaf standar ini semakin kehilangan peran dan fungsi, karena ciri utamanya telah diadopsi pada mushaf standar Usmani. Kaidah imla’i yang sebagian besar digunakan di dalamnya menambah problematika sendiri pada mushaf standar Bahriyah.

Tulisan ini menjelaskan tentang pentashihan dan para pentashih mushaf Al-Qur'an di Indonesia, sejak sebelum berdirinya Lajnah Pentashihan Mushaf AlQur'an pada tahun 1957 hingga 2020. Mushaf Al-Qur'an yang akan dicetak ditashih terlebih dahulu untuk menghindari kesalahan dan menjaga keautentikannya. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan sejarah, diketahui bahwa pola pentashihan terus berkembang, dengan cara mengkaji literatur-literatur terkait penulisan mushaf Al-Qur'an, hingga memperbandingkan master mushaf yang akan dicetak dengan naskah master Mushaf Al-Qur'an Standar Indonesia. Pola pengangkatan pentashih mushaf Al-Qur'an juga dinamis, mulai yang diangkat oleh perorangan, organisasi masyarakat, sampai pengangkatan resmi oleh negara melalui Lajnah Pentashihan Mushaf Al-Qur'an pada taun 2007. Lajnah Pentashihan Mushaf AlQur'an merupakan satuan tugas di bawah Badan Litbang dan Diklat Kementerian Agama. Mushaf-mushaf yang dihasilkan juga sangat beragam beragam, mulai yang hanya mencantumkan teks Al-Qur'an, mushaf dengan terjemahan, mushaf dengan tajwid, mushaf terjemahan per kata, sampai beberapa teks tambahan yang semakin menambah syiar penerbitan Al-Qur'an di Indonesia.

Identifying the tissue-specific molecular signatures of active regulatory elements is critical to understand gene regulatory mechanisms. Here, we identify transcription start sites (TSS) using cap analysis of gene expression (CAGE) across 57 human pancreatic islet samples. We identify 9,954 reproducible CAGE tag clusters (TCs), ∼20% of which are islet specific and occur mostly distal to known gene TSS. We integrated islet CAGE data with histone modification and chromatin accessibility profiles to identify epigenomic signatures of transcription initiation. Using a massively parallel reporter assay, we validated the transcriptional enhancer activity for 2,279 of 3,378 (∼68%) tested islet CAGE elements (5% false discovery rate). TCs within accessible enhancers show higher enrichment to overlap type 2 diabetes genome-wide association study (GWAS) signals than existing islet annotations, which emphasizes the utility of mapping CAGE profiles in disease-relevant tissue. This work provides a high-resolution map of transcriptional initiation in human pancreatic islets with utility for dissecting active enhancers at GWAS loci.

Polymerizable organic silane molecules 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propylmethacrylate (3MPS) and vinyltri(2-methoxyethoxy)silane (VTMES) have been introduced onto surfaces of high purity Boehmite (a commercial alumina) via hydroxyl groups on the oxides in order to obtain organic-inorganic hybrid “macromonomers”. Changes of surface characteristics have been determined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The influence of the type of silane used and modification conditions have been determined. Preheating was applied to some Boehmite samples; it leads to lower concentrations of –OH groups on the powder surface and the adsorption yields lower than in samples without preheating. Modification leads to surface hydrophobicity and thus reduces significantly water adsorption; in TGA we see desorption of water below 423 K only in un-modified Boehmite.

Background. Aortic valve stenosis is common with prevalence of about 0.5 %, peaking in people aged over 70 years mostly due to age-related valve calcification. The year 2002 was marked by the invention and use of the endovascular aortic replacement valve by an A. Cribier’s group of French surgeons. Russian endovascular surgery introduced transcatheter aortic valve replacement in 2009, having since built an extensive experience in this practice. Perioperative mortality in patients under 70 years with no serious comorbidity ranges from 1 to 3 %, however, reaching two-fold 4–8 % in elderly patients. The emergence of minimally invasive technologies offered cure to critical patients, who would merely not get over an open surgery.

Materials and methods. This case study provides video recordings of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (Accurate Neo) in transfemoral approach performed for the first time in the Republic of Bashkortostan. Patient K., 70 yo, diagnosis: Atherosclerosis. Aortic valve stenosis. FC III. Complications: aortic valve calcification st. III, CHF II A, FC III, persistent atrial fibrillation, tachysystole. Comorbid: CHD. Exertional angina. FC III. CHF II A, FC III.

Results and discussion. Improving the transcatheter valve type facilitates an optimal individual aortic valve selection. Pre-replacement valvuloplasty was performed in all patients. The valve replacement is followed by transoesophageal echocardiography to justify possible aortic valve post-dilatation upon marked paravalvular regurgitation. The implant positioning relative to the aortic valve fibrous crown and mitral valve flaps is precisely controlled with ultrasound.

Conclusion. Interventional radiology currently provides high-quality, effective, minimally invasive medical aid even in aortic stenosis patients with multiple comorbidity. In the patient’s denial of open surgery, transcatheter aortic valve replacement represents a sole alternative treatment, also increasing the life expectancy and quality. A wider diversity of available transcatheter devices enables a better personalisation of the biological valve replacement procedure.

Background. Carotid artery restenosis is a rare complication of carotid stenting. The Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial (CREST) reveals an in-stent restenosis rate of 0–6 %, a fairly low value given an extensive study sampling of patients. Restenosis still lacks an adequate explanation in endovascular carotid surgery. Intravascular ultrasound visualisation, drug-coated balloons, stent reimplantation or reconstructive surgery have actively been used since relatively recently to tackle restenosis. Drug-coated balloons may fail in certain cases due to hampered restenosis angioplasty in a markedly rigid neointimal hyperplasia. Surgical reconstruction also possessed drawbacks, mostly due to obstacles in the stent removal and the procedure infeasibility in high-risk surgical patients.

Materials and methods. The article describes a clinical case of stent-in-stent restenosis correction with drug-coated balloon-expandable re-stenting of right internal carotid artery and a long-term prognosis estimation with optical coherence tomography.

Results and discussions. This tactic was adopted due to haemodynamically and clinically significant internal carotid artery restenosis, the patient’s denial of carotid endarterectomy and insufficiently effective balloon angioplasty. The choice of the correction technique was conclusive basing on a negative stent deformation testing that showed the lack of deforming stress factors at internal carotid artery restenosis. Intravascular imaging greatly enhances our ability to understand and assess endovascular processes.

Conclusion. We consider clinically significant restenoses in previously stented carotid arteries as requiring further research effort, with the clinical case presented describing an individual solution.

Authors: Muzhikov S. P. , Eremenko M. Iu.
Published: April 2021

Background. Combined thyroid cancer is extremely rare. There is no unified approach currently to the choice of treatment and extent of surgery in combined cancer.

Aim. A clinical case description of left hemithyroidectomy for follicular papillary cancer in a patient previously operated for follicular right lobe cancer with right recurrent laryngeal nerve injury.

Materials and methods. Patient N., 48 yo, had a routine surgical admission in December 2019 with nodular goiter in left thyroid lobe. Suspicio c-r of left thyroid lobe. Condition after right hemithyroidectomy in 2002, postoperative paresis of right recurrent laryngeal nerve.

Results. The patient had a routine surgery upon further examination. Morbid histology corresponded to follicular papillary cancer of left thyroid lobe.

Discussion. Combined thyroid cancers are relatively poorly documented, stimulating further case studies. The chosen extent of surgery and iatrogenic injury of right recurrent laryngeal nerve in history are also distinctive of this clinical case.

Conclusion. A non-standard extent of surgery is described in a clinical case of combined thyroid cancer complicated by postoperative paresis of right recurrent laryngeal nerve in history.

The aim – to determine the peculiarities of duration and treatment of a patient with myocardial infarction, complicated by pulmonary artery thrombosis and oncopathology, to show the complexity of management of such a group of patients.Matherial and methods. A clinical examination of the patient with myocardial infarction, complicated by pulmonary artery thrombosis and oncopathology was conducted.Results. Oncopatients are diagnosed acute coronary syndrome with elevation of ST segment more frequently compared to other patients. Oncothrombosis risk is connected with hypercoagulation and thrombocytopenia, cardiotoxicity of antitumor treatment, prolonged immobilization and procoagulant activity of malignant neoplasms.Сonclusion. Acute coronary syndrome and pulmonary artery thrombosis demand comprehensive approach to treatment, this group of patients has an increased risk of cardiovascular death, multidisciplinary approach and comprehensive analysis of such patients promotes early detection of pathology and timely treatment and prevention. Effective treatment for oncopatients with venous thrombosis are direct oral anticoagulants that reduce the risk of recurrent thrombosis, but should be used with caution in patients who have increased risk of major bleeding, the only recommended ones are rivaroxaban and edoxaban, also low-molecular-weight heparins, which can be prescribed to patients with risk of bleeding, cancer and inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

The objective of the research - to determine the the T786C polymorphism of nos3 gene effect on the level of nitric oxide metabolites among patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.Material and methods. To achieve this goal, a prospective study was conducted on the basis of the communal uncommercial company “City Hospital № 10” of Zaporizhzhia City Council. The sample of patients was conducted in the period from 2014 to 2019. The results of the study are based on data from a comprehensive examination and dynamic monitoring of 176 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation on the background of coronary heart disease combined with hypertension, of which 98 were from the city of Zaporizhzhia and 78 were from rural areas. Almost healthy 31 volunteers were examined on an outpatient basis.Results. Plasma NO2 levels in both groups area urban and rural patients - 7.02 [5.74 ; 8.14] mmol/L and 6.77 [5.47 ; 7.98] mmol/l, respectively, were significantly lower compared to 8.46 [7.45 ; 9.45] mmol/L in the healthy group (p<0.05). Significantly, the lowest level of NO3 was in the group of patients from the city of 10.36 [8.14 ; 13.32] mmol/L, in vs. to the value of 11.69 [10.36; 15.33] mmol/L in the group of patients from rural areas and against 13.36 [11.85 ; 15.35] mmol/L in the group of healthy individuals, (p<0.05). The highest value of NO2+NO3 was in the group of healthy people - 21.56 [20.38 ; 24.53] mmol/L, against the level of 18.02 [15.83 ; 21.78] mmol/L in the group of patients from rural areas and - 17.60 [14.80 ; 20.35] mmol/L in the group from urban area (p < 0.05). The median NO2 level in the subgroup of homozygotes for the T allele was 7.86 [6.66; 8.88] mmol/L and was significantly higher than in the subgroup of heterozygotes TC - 6.66 [5.18; 7.98] mmol/L – and the subgroup of homozygotes for the C - 5.81 [5.07; 6.72] mmol/l (p<0.05). The highest value of NO2+NO3 was in the homozygote subgroup for the T - 20.35 [17.07 ; 25.16] mmol/l, both against the level of 17.52 [15.37 ; 20.72] mmol/L of the TC heterozygote subgroup, and against 16.41 [14.48; 17.93] mmol/L of the homozygote subgroup for the C allele (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the heterozygote and homozygote subgroups for the C allele (p>0.05). Conclusions. Decreased nitric oxide metabolites occur among patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation compared with the healthy group. The level of nitrate-ions in the group of patients from the city was significantly lower than in the group of patients from the rural areas. The level of nitrite-ions was lower among patients with the C allele of the T786C polymorphism of the 3 type of nitric oxide synthase gene, whereas the value of nitrate-ions did not depend on this polymorphism.
