Numerical model of ultrasonic multi-channel data transfer for servicing subsea production complex
Various researchers focused on different problems, and we can conclude that a single effective communication design with a specific algorithm that could be used in all types of underwater channels was not found. The design of the transmission is highly dependent on the conditions of the canal, as various schemes are used in shallow and deep water, and various algorithms in turbulent and calm waters. The type of channel alignment also depends on parameters such as channel estimation and coding. The ever-growing demand for bandwidth, efficiency, spatial diversity and the performance of underwater acoustic communications has opened the door to using Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technology. In this paper, we propose a method of ultrasonic data transmission under water based on the MIMO technology (Many emitters, many receivers, or MIMO - Multilpe Input - Multiple Output). This approach will allow for multi-channel data transmission in water and significantly increase the speed of information transfer
Hydrobionts of a freshwater oil-polluted northern lake: bioaccumulation of heavy metals in fish and the rate of ecosystem recovery
The response of phytoplankton, zooplankton, benthic and fish community structure to one of the biggest oil spill in history of Komi Republic (north-west part of Russia) was investigated using data from a long-term survey off the polluted lake. The characteristics of aquatic freshwater communities observed in the study area 10, 11 and 22 years after the spill (1994) were compared to find out the rate of natural recovery of the ecosystem after oil decontamination of bottom sediments. The concentrations of fifteen trace metals (Al, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Mo, Cd, Sb, Pb, U, Bi, Th) were analyzed in the tissues (muscle) of three fish species. The concentrations of Al (3-309 mg/kg), Cr (0,1-3,71 mg/kg), Fe (8,6-317 mg/kg), and Cu (0,09-99 mg/kg) in fishes from polluted lake resulted in most cases higher than reference thresholds. Quantitative and qualitative indicators of aquatic invertebrates from polluted lake reach those one of unpolluted lake but do not fully recover 22 years after the spill, despite that oil concentration in water column and in bottom sediments was lower than reference tresholds. We conclude that natural recovery rate of aquatic freshwater ecosystems in northern regions after oil pollution is extremely low. The purification of water and bottom sediments of oil-polluted northern water bodies is necessary for stimulation of ecosystem restoration

Antithrombotic Therapy and the Nearest Forecast of Pulmonary Embolism in Rutine Clinical Practice (Data of the Regional Vascular Center of the Ryazan Region)
Aim. To perform the analysis of antithrombotic therapy and immediate prognosis in patients with pulmonary embolism (PE) in routine clinical practice.Materials and methods. During 13 months of follow-up (2018-2019) within the framework of the Russian SIRENA registry, the study included patients (n=103) with verified PE who were hospitalized at the regional vascular center. Main results. Thrombolytic therapy was performed in 63 patients (61.2% of the sample), of which 48 (76.2%) had no indications. In these cases, the most common reason for performance was the results of the PESI score (n=17) and/or a significant amount of damage to the pulmonary artery (n=10) and/or severe shortness of breath (n=3) and/or the presence of a thrombus in the right parts of the heart or deep veins of the lower extremities (n=2), in addition, in a number of medical records, the cause is indicated as “for health reasons” (n=6) or there were no data (n=10). Patients who underwent thrombolysis had a larger volume of pulmonary lesions, more pronounced signs of respiratory failure and overload of the right heart, as well as a shorter duration of clinical manifestations. Anticoagulant therapy was used in 94.2% of cases, of which 90.3% of patients used parenteral forms at the start, then direct oral anticoagulants were mainly used, the frequency of warfarin prescription was only 5.8% of cases. Bleeding was registered in 19.4% of patients (significant – in 11.7%). PE recurrence after diagnosis and initiation of therapy was observed in 4 cases (3.9%). Hospital mortality was 9.7%. Predictors of poor prognosis were hospitalization with a different diagnosis (risk ratio [RR] 16.2; p=0.001), advanced age (RR 10.1; p=0.028), unstable hemodynamics (RR 7.6; p=0.002), chronic kidney disease C3- 5 (RR 5.6; p=0.03), history of stroke (RR 5.3; p=0.016) and chronic heart failure (RR 3.9; p=0.035).Conclusion. In modern clinical practice, the indications for thrombolysis often differ from those recommended, which leads to an increase in the number of bleeding and leveling of the positive effect on the prognosis. Factors such as advanced age, chronic heart failure and atrial fibrillation, stroke, chronic kidney disease, hemodynamic instability, hospitalizations with a different primary diagnosis, and the need for oxygen therapy increase the risk of early mortality
New opportunities for identifying the risk of cardiovascular events in young people: the role of familial hypercholesterolemia
A search was made for publications on modern methods for determining cardiovascular risk in young people with positive family history for early cardiovascular events. The use of various screening options allows timely identification of patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia who have a high cardiovascular risk. The most effective method is cascade screening. Cardiovascular risk assessment systems that include a family history of early cardiovascular events and lipid profiles in individuals under 40 years of age provide prevention of atherosclerosis. In the diagnosis of risk, the lipoprotein (a) is of particular clinical importance, elevated concentrations of which are associated with a high risk of vascular damage and an unfavorable course of atherosclerosis

Genetic factors in the development of pulmonary embolism
The article presents a literature review on the study of the relationship of FGA, FGB, F2, F5, PAI, ITGA2 gene polymorphisms with the development of pulmonary embolism (PE). We concluded that genetic factors in the development of PE are to a greater extent mutations in the F2, F5, PAI, ITGA2 genes. There is a positive correlation between the presence of combined genetic mutations and the development of PE. The study of allelic polymorphism of hemostasis genes makes it possible to predict coagulation system disorders, including PE
