Vertical Farming as a Unique Solution for Future Agricultural Challenges

Future challenges or the unrelenting human mind provide us with new ideas that make the unthinkable a reality, changing all our representations of how things might be done in a completely different and more beneficial way. It was inevitable that the agricultural sector would change dramatically over the years, as new challenges were not considered in traditional farming. Vertical farming is a new way of growing some vegetables in a more unique way that benefits in many aspects. The novel aspect that might find a new discoverer of the technique is no soil usage in growing vegetables. There are other aspects that put this technique ahead in some cases. This article will focus on explaining what vertical farming is and also its advantages and disadvantages. Also, the future application of the technique will be covered

Clinical Features of Cutaneous Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cells Transplantation in Children with Hemato-Oncological Diseases

The graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is frequent complication, it occurs in 50% of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and it is one of the major causes of mortality not associated with disease recurrence. Skin lesion in the symptom complex of acute GvHD develops within the first 100 days after HSCT, and it is complicated diagnostic and therapeutic problem. Significant immunosuppressive status of children during the posttransplant period enhances and changes the course of dermatoses, infections, drug toxicity. Finally, it can lead to immunoallergic processes with possible development to generalized life-threatening diseases of the skin and mucous membranes. Meanwhile, toxic, allergic and infectious skin lesions can be present simultaneously or develop sequentially. The description of the clinical picture of skin lesions in acute GvHD is really crucial and has scientific and practical significance due to relatively small frequency of HSCT in children with oncology diseases. The article summarizes data on etiology, pathogenesis, clinical forms, diagnostic and treatment methods of cutaneous complications of the early post-transplantation period after HSCT
