[The diagnostic of chronic syndrome of disseminated intravascular blood coagulation in patients with damaged spleen in remote post-operative period.]

The study was carried out concerning analysis of coagulation homeostasis in 70 patients earlier subjected to damage of spleen because of closed trauma of abdomen. From the moment of surgical intervention passed no less than one year. The age of the examined patients varied from 20 to 50 years. The average age made up to 45±2 years. The males amounted to 50 and females - to 20. The splenectomy was executed in 50 patients out of all. The organs-preserving operations using CO2 -laser were executed in 20 patients out of all. The comparison group consisted of 30 healthy individuals of both gender and the same age. It is established that execution of organs-preserving operations under trauma of spleen prevents development of syndrome of chronic disseminated intravascular coagulation of blood. In patients after splenectomy the signs of this process were detected and at that no clinical manifestations were detected. That is, it is possible to affirm presence of chronic latent ongoing disseminated intravascular coagulation of blood in patients of the given category.

[Magnetic resonance spectroscopy]. / Magnitno-rezonansnaia spektroskopiia.

Life-time diagnosis of the initial pathological shifts in the organism remains an and still unsolved important problem of modern medicine. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy based on the nuclear magnetic resonance phenomenon is one of the methods which can help to solve this problem. Modern reports about the use of magnetic resonance spectroscopy in the diagnosis of various diseases are reviewed.

[Special features of correction of hyperosmolar alcoholic syndrome in injured patients]. / Osobennosti korrektsii giperosmoliarnogo alkogol'nogo sindroma u travmatologicheskikh bol'nykh.

Hyperosmolar alcoholic syndrome in traumatologic patients, admitted to a hospital in a state of alcoholic intoxication, is not unusual. Recommended treatment of this state is based on correction of metabolic acidosis, forced diuresis and normovolemic hemodilution with the help of hyperoncotic solutions. In the process of examination of 94 patients have been revealed increase of osmolarity due to high content of blood alcohol, decrease of sodium concentration and increase of colloid-osmotic pressure level, connected with inadequate autohemodilution. In these patients pathogenetically justified is the use of hypotonic solutions of glucose-novocaine mixture, ensuring immediate replacement of extra- and intracellular water space deficiencies of organism, that made possible to abandon application of forced diuresis, metabolic acidosis correction and costly hyperoncotic solutions.

[Intrinsic luminescence and differentiation in Actinomyces lucensis--producer of etruscomycin]. / Sobstvennaia liuminestsentsiia i differentsiatsiia Actinomyces lucensis--productsenta étruskomitsina

The luminescence of Actinomyces lucensis producing etruscomycin was found to be caused not by the antibiotic but by additional luminescent substances. No direct correlation has been established between the content of the luminescent substances and the intensity of the luminscence. The latter depends on the differentiation of the colonies, i.e. on the presence of a dark layer that screens the luminescence of the colonial mycelium and is localized under the aerial mycelium. The dark layer contains pigments of the melanin type.
