[Blood group as a predictor of glycemia and lactatemia in critical condition patients.]

Hyperlactatemia is a dangerous metabolic shift, manifested in an increase in the blood lactate content above 2.2 mmol / l. Changes in the content of lactate affect the function of vital organs and systems, disrupting the course of biochemical processes. This condition accompanies a large number of clinical situations, also it is a major factor, worsening the clinical outcome and the patient's condition. The study of the characteristics of its occurrence and metabolic relationships helps to fulfill the diagnostic criteria for assessing the likelihood of an adverse outcome. The purpose of this study is to assess the variability of the content of lactate and glucose, as well as the glucose/lactate ratio, depending on the group of blood in the ABO system and the nosology of patients. 250 patients with various diseases whose condition required intensive care were examined, the middle age was 61.08 ± 13.6 years, and 446 practically healthy individuals who did not have acute somatic and infectious diseases, the middle age was 26.83 ± 1.46 years . We investigated the content of lactate and glucose, the glucose/lactate ratio, determined the belonging of the blood to ABO system. Statistical processing of the results was performed in the IBM SPSS Statistica 23.0. The data obtained indicate that patients with B (III) blood group have the highest lactate content in venous blood compared to the general population, and patients with AB (IV) blood group have the highest blood glucose level. In the group of patients with the highest median lactate content, the lowest glucose content was observed. The data presented demonstrate the importance of measuring and monitoring glucose, lactate, and their ratio in the management of patients in a life-threatening condition. Evaluation of metabolic variability depending on the different blood grouping of the ABO system in critical conditions involving hyperlactataemia can serve as an important tool in modeling a personalized approach to the patient.

[Molecular markers of the oral mucosa damage in patients with leukemia.]

The criteria for early manifestations of mucosal lesions in patients with acute and chronic leukemia are distinguished: in the absence of complaints and changes in the index assessment of the oral cavity, a block of initial dental signs in the form of edema of the tongue and the smoothness of its papillae, pallor of the oral mucosa in patients with leukemia. In theoral fluid of patients with the initial signs of dental pathology in acute leukemia, a specific spectrum of disorders was established in the form of the lowest antibody level of immunoglobulin A class to transglutaminase in combination with a high amount of Ig G antibodies to transglutaminase - 8.73 ± 0.92 U / ml, which maximal level exceeds the reference limits by almost 4 times (38.80 U / ml) - that indicates structural changes in the connective tissues of the oral cavity. Under the influence of chemotherapy in these patients, the inversion of clinical manifestations of dental pathology was noted: stomatitis II (medium) severity is formed, bypassing I degree, accompanied by a 4-fold increase of IgA antibodies to transglutaminase (4.03 ± 0, 77 U / ml, p < 0.05) in the oral fluid of patients with acute leukemia and 2.5 times for chronic leukemias (3.24 ± 0.47 U / ml, p < 0.05) compared to pre-treatment period. In this regard, it is recommended to determine the content in the oral fluid for antibodies to transglutaminase in patients with leukemia for verification of the degree of inflammatory-destructive process and its recovery. The peculiarity of immunological shifts in stomatitis of the 1st degree of severity is the highest level of IgG antibodies to transglutaminase (9.98 ± 1.50 U / ml) in the oral fluid, and at II-III degree the molecular manifestations of damage are smoother, which indicates the depression of immune processes.
