The state of antioxidant system in patients with alcohol abuse
A study into the content water-soluble antioxidants, ceruloplasmin and iron (III) in the blood serum in patients with alcohol abuse showed significant changes to the antioxidant system: an increase in the content of antioxidants and ceruloplasmin decreased and a decrease in that of iron (III). The authors focus on the gender-related differences: men exhibit greater changes ...
Cognitive features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in patients with alcohol dependence
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a significant public health problem due to its widespread prevalence. It becomes a medical and social burden for both society and the patient. To what extent comorbid alcoholism is able to influence the features of the clinical course of COPD remains an open issue. The study aimed to reveal the impact of alcoholism on the level of COPD subjective symptoms in patients with different compliance. Materials and methods....

IL-1β and IL-8 influence on cytoprotective mechanisms in liver tissue in morbid obesity patients with comorbidities
Obesity is a global health problem. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in obese patients is 62—93 %, in type 2 diabetes is prevalent and reaches 55.5 %. The development of chronic subclinical inflammation in obesity contributes to the development of oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, which underlie the pathogenesis of obesity-associated diseases, i. e., type 2 diabetes and NAFLD.
The study included 130 patients with morbid obesity and comorbid diseases (NAFLD and type 2 diabetes)...

The delayed fluorescence intensity enhancement and an increase in the lifetime of the acceptor triplet states in the presence of KI have been established. The constant rates of deactivation of the singlet and triplet states of dye molecules ...
