RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Performing comparison of EEG in adolescents living in the Northern and Southern regions and having different risk of Internet-addiction (IA). MATERIAL AND METHODS: School adolescents of 16-17 years old, permanently living in the Northern (n=55) and Southern (n=55) regions of the Russian Federation were examined. According to Chen's scale (CIAS) the adolescents living in both regions were divided into 3 groups: group I - with minimal risk of IA; group II - with IA inclination; group III - with formed IA. EEG spectral power (µV2) was evaluated in every spectral band. RESULTS: In the samples of Northern/Southern regions 25.5/38.2% individuals of group I; 63.6/47.3% - of group II; 10.9/14.5% - of group III were revealed. There was a tendency to increase EEG spectral power with increasing IA risk. In both regions the highest θ-band spectral power in the central zones and the left temporal zone were revealed among the representatives of group II (p<0.05-0.01). There were revealed the highest α-band spectral power in the left hemisphere among the representatives of group III (p<0.05), among the representatives of the Southern region the highest ß1-band spectral power in the central zones and in the left frontal and left occipital zones was revealed (p<0.05-0.01). Among the representatives of group II and III of the Northern region there were higher EEG spectral power values compare to those of the Southern region's representatives, predominantly in the left and frontal zones (p<0.05-0.01). CONCLUSION: Thus, variants of adaptive reactions of the brain activity were revealed, which reflect specificity of the IA formation and heterochrony of the EEG pattern formation in adolescents of the Northern region.

The results of high tech laparoscopic operations were analysed in 236 patients, with 116 patients under 60 years old, and 120 patients above 60 years old. In both age groups of patients with similar characteristics of surgical aggression, there was no significant difference of intra- and postoperative complications. In elderly patients, there might be even a slight tendency for less complications. Laparoscopic technique of complex surgical intervention in combination with early patient's rehabilitation is a very important element in management of the postoperative period in elderly patients, it allows the effectiveness and safety of modern surgery in this patient population.

AIM: To evaluate changes in electroencephalogram (EEG) spectral characteristics during a single session of heart rate variability biofeedback (HRV BF). MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hundred and fifty adolescents, aged 16-17 years, were studied. Adolescents of the BF-group (n=110) conducted HRV BF session to enhance vagal influences on the heart rhythm. Adolescents of the control group (n=40) remained in relaxed resting state. EEG was recorded with eyes closed before and after BF training. EEG absolute spectral power values of parts without artifacts in each frequency band were determined. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The ability of the volunteer to change the heart rhythm activity determines the extent of its impact on the functions of central autonomic structures. This method of BF training helps to improve the cortical stability: an increase in alpha- and decrease in theta EEG-activity. The synchronization process of brain activity in the dynamics of BF training is most clearly manifested in the right brain hemisphere, with the frequent involvement of prefrontal brain areas.

A single session of heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback in apparently healthy young people and adolescents aged 14-17 years in order to increase vagal effects on heart rhythm and also electroencephalograms were carried out. Different variants of EEG spectral power during the successful HRV biofeedback session were identified. In the case of I variant of EEG activity the increase of power spectrum of alpha-, betal-, theta-components takes place in all parts of the brain. In the case of II variant of EEG activity the reduction of power spectrum of alpha-, betal-, theta-activity in all parts of the brain was observed. I and II variants of EEG activity cause more intensive regime of cortical-subcortical interactions. During the III variant of EEG activity the successful biofeedback is accompanied by increase of alpha activity in the central, front and anteriofrontal brain parts and so indicates the formation of thalamocortical relations of neural network in order to optimize the vegetal regulation of heart function. There was an increase in alpha- and beta1-activity in the parietal, central, frontal and temporal brain parts during the IV variant of EEG activity and so that it provides the relief of neural networks communication for information processing. As a result of V variance of EEG activity there was the increase of power spectrum of theta activity in the central and frontal parts of both cerebral hemispheres, so it was associated with the cortical-hippocampal interactions to achieve a successful biofeedback.

The features of the electroencephalogram (EEG) at the heart rate variability single biofeedback session in adolescents aged 15-17 years living in the subpolar and polar northern regions were determined. In adolescents of the subpolar region identified shaped age EEG pattern. We have established higher diencephalic and subcortical brain structures activity manifested in the elevated theta-activity levels and the diffuse photic driving reactions in adolescents of the polar region than in adolescents of subpolar region. In the dynamics of the biofeedback sessions in both regions there were identified groups of persons with both increased alpha-activity spectral power and decreased of it. After biofeedback sessions in adolescents of polar region more prolonged increase of alpha-activity, more pronounced reduction of theta-activity and the photic driving reactions were revealed. Changes in EEG patterns are most characteristic of the right brain hemisphere involving the frontal brain areas.

The article presents a low-invasive method in the intraoperative ultrasound-guided surgery. The method had several steps: an access (2-3 cm) was made to a liquid formation with the following aspiration of contents, a necrotic detritus was removed through the wound tract using simultaneous ultrasound examination of efficacy of emptying the cavity with drainage. This means allowed the performance of single-stage sanitization and drainage of cavity formations, which contained the liquid and dense necrotic tissues in the lumen. The method was effective, technically workable in any surgical hospital. At the same time, it was economically reasonable, because there wasn't need to buy an additional equipment. The application of the means considerably shortened a hospital stay and the lethality was reduced.

BACKGROUND: Northern European areas are differing in degree of extreme climatic conditions in the Polar and Subpolar latitudes. Formation of the nervous system in adolescents most of all is affected by these adverse climatic factors. OBJECTIVE: The aim was to study of the autonomic regulation of cardiac activity and brain bioelectric activity in adolescents-inhabitants of the North depending on these autonomic nervous tones. METHODS: 300 adolescents (male and female) aged 15-16 years living in the Polar (67°40' N) and Subpolar (64°30' N) northern regions of Russia are examined. Assessment of autonomic nervous tone was determined by the heart rate variability (HRV) and blood pressure parameters. After the initial analysis of these indicators, all subjects in both areas were further divided into groups with vagotonic, normotonic and sympathotonic types. Electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded in the state of quiet wakefulness with closed eyes (16 standard monopolar leads). EEG characteristic were performed on the values of the amplitude and the index in each frequency band. All described changes were statistically significant atp < 0.05-0.001. RESULTS: According HRV and central hemodynamics among adolescents of the Polar North revealed an increase the proportion of individuals with a predominance ofsympathetic influences on cardiac activity (37.3%) and significant decrease the proportion ofpersons with a predominance of vagal influences (10%). A high activity of diencephalic subcortical brain structures in groups of normotonic and sympathotinic persons in the Polar region was revealed, which manifests itself in the form of increased levels of theta and alpha EEG-activity, as well as increased occurrence hypersynchronous EEG-types (50%). In adolescents-inhabitants of the Subpolar region occurs more intensive age optimization of neural processes then in adolescents- inhabitants of the Polar region. CONCLUSION: The predominance of sympathetic effects on the cardiac activity and higher activity of diencephalic subcortical brain structures in adolescents of the Polar region were revealed.

OBJECTIVE: The aim was to determine the nature of cardiovascular reactions during a single session of heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback in order to increase vagal effects on heart rhythm in patients with different initial levels of blood pressure (BP). PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS: 33 people with normal blood pressure (group I), 20 people with uncorrected arterial hypertension (AH) grade 1-2 (group II) and 22 people with AH grade 1-2 taking antihypertensive drugs (group III) were observed. The parameters of heart rate variability (HRV), BP and pulse aximetry in the initial stage, during a single HRV biofeedback session and after this session in order to increase the total power of the HRV spectrum (each stage 5 min). RESULTS: In patients of group II low success of HRV biofeedback session, a high sympathetic reactivity and reduced oxygen blood saturation were determined. A reactivity of vagal mechanism is more pronounced in persons of group III than in those of group II. It is reflected in a significant increase in their total power of the HRV spectrum compared to the initial values and in uptrend saturation levels during the biofeedback session. CONCLUSION: The ability to HRV biofeedback in order to increase the total power of the HRV spectrum for standard short recording (5 min) can be seen as a test to determine the safety reserves of vagal autonomic cardiovascular regulation in persons with increased blood pressure.

UNLABELLED: Northern European regions are goiter endemic and iodine-deficient areas, and also differ in the degree of extreme weather conditions in the Polar and Subpolar latitudes. The age formation of the nervous system in adolescents depends on these discomfort climatic factors. AIM: The study of functional brain activity depending on the thyroid profile in adolescents living in the European North. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 211 adolescents (male and female) aged 15-16 years living in the Subpolar (64 degrees 30' N) and Polar (67 degrees 40' N) Russian regions were observed. An electroencephalogram in a state of quiet wakefulness with eyes closed monopolar 16 standard leads was recorded. Electroencephalogram characteristic were performed by the values: of the wave amplitudes, index and absolute spectral power in each frequency band: 4-7 Hz, 8-12 Hz and 13-24 Hz. In serum samples by immune-enzyme assay thyrotropin, triiodothyronine and thyroxine levels were determined. All the described changes were statistically significant at p < 0.05-0.001. RESULTS: A higher activity of diencephalic subcortical brain structures, expressed in the form of increased -activity and photic driver reactions were determined in adolescents living in Polar region. Background thyroid status determines the age formation of brain activity. In adolescents living in the Polar region a high concentration of thyrotropin in the blood and the availability of significant relations with thyroid hormones levels with a brain theta-activity were detected. In adolescents living in Subpolar region is more intense age optimization of neural processes, as well as the greatest number of neuro-endocrine relationships.

Types of neurophysiologic and thyroid condition in 15-17-year old adolescents were studied for the purpose of heart rhythm biofeedback session effect by heart rhythm variability parameters. Changes of heart rhythm vegetative regulation activity modulate functional capacities of central vegetative regulation structures. The biofeedback training with heart rhythm variability parameters increases brain bioelectrical activity in different frequency ranges. The thyroid system modulates functional activity of vegetative regulation central structures uppermost at sympathotonic and thyreotropin increasing leads to increase of rhythm maker structure reactivity in brain.

An analysis of treatment of 133 patients with acute pancreatitis using minimally invasive surgical interventions (laparoscopic and puncture-draining operations) has shown that in cases of total pancreonecrosis these methods were little effective in most cases as a definitive method of surgical treatment and may be considered as the first stage of complex process of treatment. However, for certain forms of pancreonecrosis the minimally invasive surgery plays one of the leading roles in the improvement of results of treatment in the general population of patients with destructive pancreatitis.

Seventy normal 12-15 y.o. teenagers in the Arkhangelsk oblast of Russia (in latitude 61 north) were investigated in the pubertal period (June, September, December). Immune-enzyme analysis was used to determine melatonin levels in blood serum at 8.30-9.30 a.m. In the daytime, cardiac rhythm variability was assessed on a background of mental calculation. It was shown that morning melatonin in blood serum of teenagers-northerners may be indicative of sympathetic cardiac rhythm regulation, particularly during mental effort. In June (the longest light period) the vegetative regulation had a minimal effect on mental effort. Dependence of the sympathetic activity on the level of morning melatonin in teenagers was conspicuous in September when the light period shortens.

An investigation simultaneously of hormonal profile in children of 10-16 years living in different latitudes and climato-ecological conditions in Russian European North (in the border of polar and middle latitudes) was performed. The increased thyrotropin level was revealed in 35% of children in the south (61 degrees North) and in 32% of children in the North (64 degrees 30' North). The thyroid hormones (thyroxin, triiodothyronine) are at low normative bound. Higher Insulin levels were observed in 28% of children living in the southen region especially in 50% of prepubertal boys. In 20% of children, higher cortisol levels were revealed mainly at the final puberty (35% of children).

The hormonal level dynamics of hypophysis, thyroid gland and sex steroids was analyzed in respect to the puberty. Concentrations of gonadotropins and sex streroids were increased whereas concentrations of thyroid hormones was decreased. The amplitude of hypophysis and thyroid hormones were narrowed whereas the range of sex steroids was extended during the puberty. In early stages of puberty, the interhormonal correlations existed on some levels (hypophysis or peripheral gland), but in late stage the intersystem and polyhormonal relations were formed. Thyroid hormones play a leading role in sexual maturity regulation. The sexual maturity is prolonged, the variance of sexual stages being quite wide. The range of gonadotropin shifted to the left side in comparison with children in moderate latitudes.

The exact role of lipid peroxidation in pathogenesis of pancreatonecrosis was established by means of studying the level of dienic conjugates and malonic dialdehyde in the intraoperative bioptates of the pancreas, liver, lymph nodes of the lesser omentum in 40 patients as well as in the autopsy material (similar tissues, spleen and bone marrow) in 18 patients dead of destructive pancreatitis. The control group included 10 patients dead of sudden death (normal), group of comparison (those who died of acute myocardium infarction--10 subjects) and of acute surgical abdominal pathology not associated with pancreatitis (10 subjects). Demonstrable activation (6-10 times) of processes of lipid peroxidation in all the bioptates under study took place at pancreatonecrosis as compared to the normal that suggests generalization of lipid peroxidation at this pathology. The level of lipid peroxidation can show the degree of destruction in the pancreas that can be considered as a criterion of the outcome of the disease. In the groups of comparison the level of lipid peroxidation was much lower than at pancreatonecrosis that suggests the pathogenetic role of activation of lipid peroxidation in the development of this disease.
