    The article discusses the role of legal consciousness in enhancing the internal factors of preparedness for dangerous driving. The analysis of statistical data regarding traffic accidents is given. The external and internal predictors of dangerous driving are analyzed. The results of an empirical study showing the relationship of the style of driving a vehicle and the development of the legal consciousness of road users are discussed

    The study of destruction of the compositions restoring the dentition integrity under uniaxial tension

    Using vital teeth as supports for non-removable prostheses has a known beneficial effect on the rehabilitation of patients suffering from partial adentia. In this case, dentinal tubules remain exposed after their preparation, which leads to tooth hypersensitivity. At the same time, the effects of chemical and physical agents, as well as bacteria and their metabolic products may promote the development of pulpitis of teeth being a part of orthopedic structur

    The paper gives the experience of the V.A. Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology in identifying and managing patients with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Objective: to describe the features of the disease in patients with FMF in Russia and to compare them with the data obtained in the study of Turkish and Armenian populations with a high incidence of this disease. Patients and methods. The investigation enrolled 23 patients with a documented diagnosis of FMF who met the Turkish pediatric criteria (F. Yalcinkaya et al.) and/or the criteria described by A. Livnech et al. and had two identical mutations (homozygosity) or two different mutations (compound heterozygosity) in the MEFV gene. Among the patients there were 9 men and 14 women. The age of the patients at the time of treatment was 4.5 to 36 years. Their age at onset of FMF was 2 months to 15 years (mean age, 3.2±2.3 years). Results. The examination established that 18 (78.3%) patients were Armenians, 3 were representatives of the North Caucasus peoples (a Darghin woman, an Avar man, and an Ingush/Kabardian man), a man from mixed (Greek/Georgian) marriage, and a Russian woman whose ancestors were Armenian and Jewish. The most common manifestation of FMF were recurrent episodes of fever (22; 95.7%); abdominal pain with fever ranked second (19; 82.6%), followed by chest pain (11; 47.8%), locomotor apparatus lesion (16; 69.6%), and skin lesions (7; 30.4%). The episodes were accompanied by increased levels of acutephase markers in 100% of the patients. There were a high proportion of patients, in whom FMF was concurrent with other rheumatic and autoinflammatory diseases (juvenile chronic arthritis, chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis, and acute rheumatic fever) (7; 30.4%). Twenty-two (95.6%) patients received colchicine; the tumor necrosis factor inhibitor etanercept was prescribed in 2 (8.7%) patients with comorbidity; there was a pronounced therapeutic effect. Conclusion. Although the majority of our patients were Armenians, the disease was also identified in those belonging to the peoples of the North Caucasus and Transcaucasia and in one Russian female patient. There has generally been a fairly typical picture of the disease. The considerable frequency of joint damage and the high proportion of patients with comorbid rheumatic diseases have engaged our attention. From a diagnostic point of view, of importance is the elevated level of acutephase markers during a disease attack, which in combination with the clinical and ethnic characteristics of patients allows the diagnosis of FMF to be suspected

    The health care funds for the monitoring must be seen as a goal-oriented process, which takes place during the entire duration of the child in educational institution, regardless of age. The possibility of using such methods of controlling the quality of physical education allows on development of physical training in educational institutionЗдоровьесбережение по средствам мониторинга необходимо рассматривать как целенаправленный процесс, который проходит в течение всего срока обучения ребенка в общеобразовательном учреждении независимо от возраста. Возможность использования такого метода контроля за качеством физического воспитания позволяет судить об уровне физического развития учащихся в общеобразовательном учреждени

    PROSPECTS AND RESULTS OF STUDYING THE COLLECTION OF CHICKPEA FROM VIR AT OMSK STATE AGRARIAN UNIVERSITY

    In 2012-1016, 23 chickpea accessions from VIR and 23 accessions from the collection of chickpea somaclones of the Siberian Research Institute of Forages were studied at Omsk State Agrarian University. The research performed in the southern forest-steppe of West Siberia resulted in identifying chickpea accessions with a shorter growing season, high plant productivity, good processability, and high symbiotic activity. The possibility of using cluster analysis for comprehensive assessment of source material for chickpea breeding was demonstrated. The nature of inheritance of agronomic traits in F1 chickpea hybrids was revealed, and recommendations for selection were formulated. A correlation was established between the major characters

    Role of homocysteine metabolism in the development of endothelial dysfunction and hypertension in patients with multiple myeloma

    The article is devoted to the modern understanding of endothelial dysfunction development, the role of hyperhomocysteinemia, and, as a consequence, hypertension in patients with multiple myeloma receiving multiagent chemotherapy. Considering that the potential of a standard examination does not allow identifying subclinical endothelial dysfunction, using specific techniques is necessary, in particular, to determine the homocysteine level to monitor the endothelial function.The aim of this review was to summarize the current understanding of hypertension etiology and prospects for detecting early, subclinical endothelial changes, including in patients with multiple myeloma.Assessment of endothelial dysfunction can be useful for detecting precisely the subclinical cardiovascular disease in order to stratify the risk of developing cardiovascular events in patients receiving multiagent chemotherapy

    The Effects of Volume Versus Intensity of Long-Term Voluntary Exercise on Physiology and Behavior in C57/Bl6 Mice

    Cardiovascular exercise (CVE) is associated with healthy aging and reduced risk of disease in humans, with similar benefits seen in animals. Most rodent studies, however, have used shorter intervention periods of a few weeks to a few months, begging questions as to the effects of longer-term, or even life-long, exercise. Additionally, most animal studies have utilized a single exercise treatment group – usually unlimited running wheel access – resulting in large volumes of exercise that are not clinically relevant. It is therefore incumbent to determine the physiological and cognitive/behavioral effects of a range of exercise intensities and volumes over a long-term period that model a lifelong commitment to CVE. In the current study, C57/Bl6 mice remained sedentary or were allowed either 1, 3, or 12 h of access to a running wheel per day, 5 days/weeks, beginning at 3.5–4 months of age. Following an eight-month intervention period, animals underwent a battery of behavioral testing, then euthanized and blood and tissue were collected. Longer access to a running wheel resulted in greater volume and higher running speed, but more breaks in running. All exercise groups showed similarly reduced body weight, increased muscle mass, improved motor function on the rotarod, and reduced anxiety in the open field. While all exercise groups showed increased food intake, this was greatest in the 12 h group but did not differ between 1 h and 3 h mice. While exercise dose-dependently increased working memory performance in the y-maze, the 1 h and 12 h groups showed the largest changes in the mass of many organs, as well as alterations in several behaviors including social interaction, novel object recognition, and Barnes maze performance. These findings suggest that long-term exercise has widespread effects on physiology, behavior, and cognition, which vary by “dose” and measure, and that even relatively small amounts of daily exercise can provide benefits
