Capabilities of the ecg dispersion mapping in evaluation of myocardial lesions in pratient with cardiovascular diseases and alcohol consumption

Diseases of the cardiovascular system continues to be the leading cause of mortality in the Russian Federation. It is known that alcohol contributes a role in the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. In this study the affect of different doses of alcohol on the course of cardiovascular disease was evaluated using the method of ECG dispersion mapping. The study found the more pronounced changes in the electrophysiological properties of the myocardium in patients with diseases of the cardiovascular system, consuming 5 and more doses of alcohol per day compared with moderate drinking or denies the use of alcohol by patients

ASSOCIATION OF DNA FRAGMENTATION OF SPERMATOZOA AND THE SUCCESS OF ASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS

The number of men with impaired sperm genetic material is steadily increasing, which is reflected in the increase in the number of assisted reproductive technology (ART) programs and their outcomes. This article presents an analysis of ART program success, depending on the proportion of DNA-sperm fragmentation. As a result, in couples with normal sperm counts (n=43), the frequency of spontaneous abortions was twice lower compared to couples (n=39), where the level of DNA fragmentation was increased (p<0.05) CONCLUSIONS. The miscarriage in a spouse in the early stages (up to 12 weeks) is more common in couples with damaged sperm DNA
