The uniqueness of this review is the lack of data on the clinic, diagnosis and treatment of hypophysitis in the Russian literature today.Primary hyperaldosteronism (PHA) is the most common form of endocrine hypertension. Until recently, the reason for the development of this condition was believed to be the presence of genetic mutations, however, many studies declare that the disease can be polyetiologic, be the result of genetic mutations and autoimmune triggers or cell clusters of aldosterone-producing cells diffusely located in the adrenal gland at the zona glonerulosa, zona fasculata, zona reticularis, as well as directly under the adrenal capsule. Recently, the actions of autoantibodies to type 1 angiotensin II receptors have been described in patients with renal transplant rejection, with preeclampsia, and with primary hyperaldosteronism. The diagnostic role of antibodies in both forms of PHA (aldosterone-producing adenoma and bilateral hyperaldosteronism) requires clarification. Diagnosis and confirmation of the focus of aldosterone hypersecretion is a multi-stage procedure that requires a long time and economic costs. The relevance of timely diagnosis of primary hyperaldosteronism is to reduce medical and social losses. This work summarizes the knowledge about genetic mutations and presents all the original studies devoted to autoantibodies in PHA, as well as discusses the diagnostic capabilities and limitations of the available methods of primary and differential diagnosis of the disease and the prospects for therapy.

The cocaine-amphetamine regulated transcript has been discovered long time ago (circa over 25 years ago) but still stays not enough investigated. Just during last five years scientist's society started providing interest to the genomic, proteomic and metabolic essence of the cocaine-amphetamine regulated transcript.

The evaluation of historical pathway and perspectives of the cocaine-amphetamine regulated transcript medical investigations.

The literature search has been provided via Russian (eLibrary, CyberLeninka.ru) and international (PubMed, Cochrane Library) databases and among articles on Russian and English languages. The main criteria for article selection was free access and 2019-2021 years of publishing. Although the introduction is based on the articles published in 1989. The present article was created according to the federal project «Central and peripheral pathophysiological mechanisms of adipose tissue diseases and their clinical and hormonal manifestations патофизиологические механизмы раe tissue diseases and their clinical and hormonal manifestations патофизиологические механизмы развития болезней жировой ткани с учетом клинических и гормональных характеристик» (2020-2022)RESULTS AND CONCLUISON It is necessary to keep on investigating genomic, proteomic and metabolomic markers because they contain important clues for successful resistance against human diseases. The 21st century is the era of transformation from simple clinical medicine to personalized science. For example, researches in the area of cocaine-amphetamine regulated transcript may result in invention of genetic medicine against dangerous metabolic diseases.We present a multimodal label-free optical measurement approach for analyzing sliced tissue biopsies by a unique combination of quantitative phase imaging and localized Raman spectroscopy. First, label-free quantitative phase imaging of the entire unstained tissue slice is performed using automated scanning. Then, pixel-wise segmentation of the tissue layers is performed by a kernelled structural support vector machine based on Haralick texture features, which are extracted from the quantitative phase profile, and used to find the best locations for performing the label-free localized Raman measurements. We use this multimodal label-free measurement approach for segmenting the urothelium in benign and malignant bladder cancer tissues by quantitative phase imaging, followed by location-guided Raman spectroscopy measurements. We then use sparse multinomial logistic regression (SMLR) on the Raman spectroscopy measurements to classify the tissue types, demonstrating that the prior segmentation of the urothelium done by label-free quantitative phase imaging improves the Raman spectra classification accuracy from 85.7% to 94.7%.

His bundle pacing (HBP) is the most physiologic form of pacing and has been associated with reduced risk for heart failure hospitalization (HFH) and mortality compared to right ventricular pacing. Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) is a safe and effective alternative option for patients needing ventricular pacing. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes between LBBAP and HBP among a large cohort of patients undergoing permanent pacemaker implantation.

This observational registry included consecutive patients with AV block/AV node ablation who underwent de novo permanent pacemaker implantations with successful LBBAP or HBP between April 2018 andOctober 2020. The primary outcome was the composite endpoint of time to death from any cause or HFH. Secondary outcomes included the composite endpoint among patients with prespecified ventricular pacing burden and individual outcomes.

The study population included 359 patients who met the inclusion criteria (163 in the HBP and 196 in the LBBAP group). Paced QRSd during LBBAP was similar to HBP (125 ± 20.2 vs. 126 ± 23.5 ms, p = .643). There were no statistically significant differences in the primary composite outcome in LBBAP (17.3%) compared to HBP (24.5%) (hazard ratio[HR] 1.15, 95%CI 0.72-1.82, p = .552). Hesperadin Secondary outcomes of death (10% vs. 17%; HR 1.3, 95%CI 0.73-2.33, p = .38) and HFH (10% vs. 12%; HR 1.02, 95%CI0.54-1.94, p = .94) were not different among both groups.

There were no statistically significant differences in the clinical outcomes of death or HFH in LBBAP when compared to HBP.

The present study aims to verify the association between objectively measured physical activity (PA) of parents and child in the 2015 Pelotas Birth Cohort, a population-based Brazilian birth cohort.

The main exposures were paternal moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) collected when children were 1-year of age, and maternal MVPA when children were 2-years. The outcome was children's overall PA (ENMO in mg) at 4-years of age. PA was measured using wrist-worn ActiGraph accelerometers during seven complete days. Potential confounders were maternal age, maternal and paternal education, and household asset index. Crude and adjusted analyses were performed using linear regressions.

Our analytical sample comprised 1326 children with valid accelerometer data and with both parents. Mean child PA was 48.1mg, being higher among boys compared with girls (Boys 50 mg, 95% CI 49.1; 50.9; Girls 46 mg, 95% CI 45.2; 46.8). Children's PA at 4 years was positively associated with maternal MVPA at age 2 years (p< 0.001) and paternal MVPA at age 1year (p< 0.001). A child with both parents in the highest tertile of unbouted MVPA presented higher overall PA (p= 0.001). Similar results were found for boys; however, for girls, paternal unbouted MVPA was not associated with overall PA.

Overall, our results showed a positive impact of maternal and parental PA over 4-year-old children acceleration. These findings could be valuable when planning evidence-based interventions and policies to promote PA in young children, providing a broader perspective over the role of parents over children's behavior.

Direct comparison studies about the incidence of esophagogastric complications between radiofrequency (RF) and cryoballoon (CB) catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) have been scarce. We sought to elucidate the relationship between the pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) modalities and esophagogastric complications.

The study population consisted of 254 patients who underwent CA for AF from November 2017 to October 2018. Finally, 160 patients were enrolled and divided into the RF and CB groups. Esophageal ulcers, gastric hypomotility, and exfoliative esophagitis detected by esophagogastroduodenoscopy were defined as esophagogastric complications in this study.

The median age was 68 years old, with 34% being females. Esophagogastric complications were observed in 42.5% of patients who underwent CA. According to the detailed esophagogastric complications, the RF group had a higher prevalence of esophageal ulcers than the CB group (19% vs. 0%, p < .0001). There was no significant difference between the two groups regarding gastric hypomotility and exfoliative esophagitis (18% vs. 28%; p = .15and 16% vs. 21%; p = .42, respectively).

Asymptomatic esophagogastric complications were common in CA for AF. The incidence of esophageal ulcers was higher in the RF group than in the CB group, whereas the other esophagogastric complications did not significantly differ.

The need for highly effective therapies in rheumatologic diseases has led to the widespread and growing use of a heterogeneous class of molecules called biological agents. The increasing experience with biological agents has raised concerns about safety and efficacy issues that need to be discussed in the informed consent acquisition process.

The authors performed a review of the literature on biological agents focusing on their most important characteristics concerning the informed consent procedures.

No studies specifically addressed the issue of informed consent in patients receiving biological agents. Several studies reported data about off-label use of biological agents usually with no obvious attention to informed consent shortcomings.

The reported association between biological agents and serious infections or malignancies, including reactivation of latent tuberculosis, needs specific disclosure in informed consent acquisition, together with information about the possible efficacy in clinical contexts often characterized by resistance to previous treatments. Ethical and clinical issues bound to the need for experimenting with new agents with potentially serious adverse effects deserve specific attention. Studies aimed at evaluating mental capacity to consent in subjects receiving biological agents are required.
