Immuno oriented therapy for mandible fractures in patients at high risk of developing inflammatory complications

Comparative clinical and immunological analysis of treatment of 49 patients with fractures of the mandible, receiving traditional therapy and treatment with use of immumomodulator leukinferon is carried out in this work. The results of the study demonstrate, that use of immunocorrection with leukinferon gives high immunological effect in comparison with traditional patients treatment. Positive dynamics of immunological parameters changes at patients is closely correlates with current of a clinical state in posttraumatic period. Use of leukinferon in complex therapy at patients with fracture of the mandible with high risk of inflammatory complications development allows to improve a condition of patients in shorter period and to warn inflammatory complications development

Capsule Endoscopy for the Diagnosis of Suspected Small Bowel Bleeding

This review discusses the role of capsule endoscopy in diagnosing suspected small bowel bleeding and compares guidelines of the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE), the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG), the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE), the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology (CAG), and the consensus document of 4 Japanese medical societies. European and North American experts recommend capsule endoscopy as a first-line diagnostic modality for suspected small bowel bleeding without life-threatening signs in adult patients when ileocolonoscopy and esophagogastroduodenoscopy failed to be informative. Japanese experts, on the contrary, prefer cross-sectional imaging “from the chest to the pelvis” and consider capsule endoscopy as an alternative

Comparative analysis of functional condition of masseters with patients having the dysfunction of temporomandibukar joints with sagittal and transversal mandible shifts in the traditional method of treatment and in the application of treatment and in the application of transcranial electrical stimulation

The comparative analysis of recording the amplitude of bioelectric potentials of masseters with 41 patients having dysfunction of temporomandibular joints (TMJ) with sagittal and transversal mandible shifts in the traditional method of treatment and in the application of transcranial electric stimulation (TES-therapy) has been carried out. The obtained results of electric myography (EMG) of masseters made it possible to establish that TES-therapy has a more effective impact on the functional condition of the muscular complex of the patients having the dysfunction TMJ with sagittal and transversal shifts of mandible by reducing bioelectric activity of masseters in the condition of relative rest and by increasing the amplitude of biological potentials during chewing and in the maximum compression of jaws
