Modeling of ammonia oxidation on a platinoid catalyst, taking into account the N₂O formation
A mathematical model of ammonia oxidation on a platinoid catalyst, taking into account the N₂O formation, was developed. The possibilities of lowering the amount of N₂O, which is formed as by-product in high-temperature oxidation of ammonia in nitric acid production, are examined. The developed model allows calculation of the reactor for ammonia oxidation using platinoid catalysts of different geometric profiles
Functional and morphological changes of the mucous membrane of the stomach after long application of proton pump inhibitors
Changes of mucous membrane of rats’ stomach after long term application of proton pump inhibition – Omeprazole. Increase of pepsin concentration, volume and рН in both fasting and basal gastric juice in comparison with the control was observed. It is established that the content of nitrates and nitrites in gastric juice and in the rats’ mixed saliva after the 12th day of introduction of proton pump inhibitors is 3:1

Розглянуто питання зв’язку між патологіями шлунково-кишкового тракту та змінами концентрацій мікроелементів у слині людини. Показано зменшення вмісту катіонів у слині при формуванні та розвитку патологічного процесу у шлунково-кишковому тракті. Розглянуто питання зв’язку між патологіями шлунково-кишкового тракту та змінами концентрацій мікроелементів у слині людини. Показано зменшення вмісту катіонів у слині при формуванні та розвитку патологічного процесу у шлунково-кишковому тракті. Connection between alimentary canal diseases and microelements’ concentrations in saliva is under consideration. It is shown, that the cations’ concentration in saliva decreases during development of the gastrointestinal tract pathology
Zoning of the Territory of the Saratov Region by the Intensity of Epidemic Manifestations of HFRS using GIS Analysis
The aim of the study was to zone the territory of the Saratov Region using indicators that influence the intensity of epidemic manifestations of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), and to assess the risk of infection of people for a differentiated approach to the organization of anti-epidemic measures in natural foci.Materials and methods. When calculating the intensity of epidemic manifestations of HFRS in the administrative-territorial units (ATUs) of the Region, the indicators that have the greatest impact on the risk of infection were selected: the intensive rate of morbidity among population, the rate of infection of carriers with the HFRS virus, the number of recreational facilities, and the forest cover rate. The paper presents personalized data of HFRS patients, the results of epizootiological monitoring, information about recreational facilities and the forest fund of the Saratov Region. All the data considered cover the period of 2010–2022 for each of the administrative districts of the Region and the city of Saratov. To calculate the intensity of epidemic manifestations, the dimension method and the decimal logarithm were used.Results and discussion. As a result of calculations, 8 ATU of the Regions have been classed as the territories with the highest intensity of epidemic manifestations and the risk of HFRS infection, with high intensity – 9, with medium – 10 and low – 12. Epidemiological geo-information analysis made it possible to establish that the territories with the highest intensity of epidemic manifestations of HFRS occupy 15.8 % of the area of the region, high – 23.8 %, medium – 28.5 %, low – 31.9 %. Based on the findings of the study, 16 districts of the Region and the city of Saratov were identified as the most dangerous in terms of HFRS infection. Namely these territories that primarily require targeted epizootiological monitoring for early and effective management of preventive activities
СПЕКТР МУТАЦИЙ ГЕНА BRCA1 У БОЛЬНЫХ РАКОМ МОЛОЧНОЙ ЖЕЛЕЗЫ В МОЛОДОМ ВОЗРАСТЕ В РОССИИ
Aim of the study. Aim of the study was to estimate the occurrence of pathogenic mutations in the BRCA1 gene in Russian breast cancer patients.Material and methods. Complete coding sequence of the BRCA1 gene of 445 early onset breast cancer patients (under 40 years) from Novosibirsk region (Russia) were analyzed by targeted Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) using Ion Torrent platform. Results. Forty (9%) carriers of various pathogenic mutations were revealed. Thirty five (7,9%) patients carried 5382insC mutation, described earlier as a founder mutation for Slavic population. Five (1.1%) patients carried various pathogenic mutations, namely C61G, 462delCC, E143X, 4153delA, and IVS18+1G>T. Besides, 29 genetic variants with no clinical significance or with unknown clinical significance were detected in BRCA1 gene among 445 early onset breast cancer patients. Conclusions. Data on the frequency of genetic variations in the BRCA1 gene among early onset breast cancer patients in the Novosibirsk Region (Russia) were obtained. Proportion of the 5382insC mutation is 87.5% of all pathogenic mutations in the BRCA1 gene found in patients.Цель исследования – оценить частоту встречаемости патогенных мутаций в BRCA1 гене у женщин с раком молочной железы, проживающих в России.Материал и методы. Проведён анализ полной кодирующей части гена BRCA1 у 445 больных раком молочной железы на ранней стадии (возраст больных до 40 лет), проживающих в Новосибирской области (Россия), с помощью метода таргетного секвенирования на платформе Ion Torrent. Результаты. Выявлено 40 (9 %) носительниц различных патогенных мутаций. У 35 (7,9 %) пациенток обнаружена мутация 5382insC, описанная ранее как «мутация-основателя» в славянской популяции. У 5 (1,1 %) пациенток были выявлены другие различные патогенные мутации, а именно C61G, 462delCC, E143X, 4153delA и IVS18 + 1G> T. Кроме того, 29 генетических вариантов с отсутствующей или неясной клинической значимостью были обнаружены в гене BRCA1 у 445 больных раком молочной железы на ранней стадии. Выводы. Получены данные о частоте генетических вариаций гена BRCA1 у больных раком молочной железы на ранней стадии, проживающих в Новосибирской области (Россия). Доля мутации 5382insC составляет 87,5 % от всех патогенных мутаций в гене BRCA1, обнаруженных у пациенток
Genetic landscape in Russian patients with familial left ventricular noncompaction
BackgroundLeft ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) cardiomyopathy is a disorder that can be complicated by heart failure, arrhythmias, thromboembolism, and sudden cardiac death. The aim of this study is to clarify the genetic landscape of LVNC in a large cohort of well-phenotyped Russian patients with LVNC, including 48 families (n=214).MethodsAll index patients underwent clinical examination and genetic analysis, as well as family members who agreed to participate in the clinical study and/or in the genetic testing. The genetic testing included next generation sequencing and genetic classification according to ACMG guidelines.ResultsA total of 55 alleles of 54 pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants in 24 genes were identified, with the largest number in the MYH7 and TTN genes. A significant proportion of variants −8 of 54 (14.8%) −have not been described earlier in other populations and may be specific to LVNC patients in Russia. In LVNC patients, the presence of each subsequent variant is associated with increased odds of having more severe LVNC subtypes than isolated LVNC with preserved ejection fraction. The corresponding odds ratio is 2.77 (1.37 −7.37; p <0.001) per variant after adjustment for sex, age, and family.ConclusionOverall, the genetic analysis of LVNC patients, accompanied by cardiomyopathy-related family history analysis, resulted in a high diagnostic yield of 89.6%. These results suggest that genetic screening should be applied to the diagnosis and prognosis of LVNC patients
