ABSTRACT
The article considers, on the basis of results of sociological research, consequences of pandemic impact on social health of citizens of the Eurasian Economic Union states. The comparative analysis was applied to two groups of labor migrants from the EAEU states in Moscow and Russian citizens of the same age. The measures taken by the EÐEU to maintain population social health in conditions of COVID-19 pandemic are considered.

Based on the results of sociological research, the article considers the consequences of the pandemic on the social health of citizens of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) states. A comparative analysis is carried out between groups of labor migrants from the EAEU states in Moscow and Russian citizens of the same age. The paper discusses the measures taken by the EÐEU, for the maintenance of social health in terms of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis.

A molecular variant of human serum thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG), containing only triantennary oligosaccharide chains and having a more prolonged in vivo survival (TBG-1), was first detected in normal pregnancy and then in the postpartum period. Serum TBG-1 was measured in normal and in some pathological conditions associated with normal or increased TBG biosynthesis using a combination of Con A-Sepharose 4B microcolumn affinity chromatography and a highly sensitive TBG radioimmunoassay. TBG-1 was shown to be present in the sera of healthy subjects (0.21 +/- 0.04 micrograms/ml, n = 60; 1.15% of total TBG). The proportion of TBG-1 in total serum TBG was significantly increased (up to 9.5%) in conditions with serum TBG excess (cancer, hypothyroidism and liver diseases). It has been assumed that a selective enhancement of biosynthesis of the TBG molecular variant with a prolonged half-life in the circulation during the posttranslational modification of the polypeptide chain is a response to the body requirements in a high TBG concentration.

The serum concentrations of the total thyroxine-binding globulin (TBGt), its pregnancy-associated molecular variant (TBG-1), thyroxine, progesterone, estradiol, and prolactin were measured by radioimmunoassay in the course of the postpartum period (0-40 days) in women. High serum TBG-1 concentrations (an average of 36% of the level observed at the time of delivery) were unexpectedly detected in the late postpartum period (days 36-40) when the concentrations of TBGt, thyroxine, estradiol and progesterone were within normal. The presence of TBG-1 in the maternal blood for a long time after delivery may be caused by estrogen-dependent synthesis and secretion rather than by its slow clearance from the blood.

The antianaphylactic effect of new antihistaminic agents by derivatives of gamma-carboline dimebon and meraboin was studied by the method of passive cutaneous anaphylaxis. It was found that the agents in a dose amounting to 10% of LD50 possessed a high anaphylactic activity which did not correlate with the degree of their antihistaminic effect. During in vitro experiments the mechanism of action of dimebon and meraboin can be conditioned also by their ability to decrease histamine release from mast cells and to reduce the activity of cAMP-dependent phosphodiesterase.
