RESUMO
AIM: To develop individualized approaches to the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) based on the interaction of genetic and epigenetic factors, to characterize the phenotypes of the disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: According to the formulated concept of the authors, from the cohort of patients with IBS, subgroups were distinguished - "post-infectious IBS" (n=45), "IBS in overweight and obese people" (n=49), "comorbid IBS" (n=75) and "essential IBS" (n=51). In each subgroup the prevalence of candidate gene polymorphisms associated with IBS (COMT, SLC6A4, FTO), nutritional habits, levels of anxiety and depression, secretion of cortisol, serotonin, dopamine and zonulin levels in feces were studied. RESULTS: Patients with "post-infectious IBS" are characterized by the carriage of the S allele of the SLC6A4 gene, the val/val genotype of the COMT gene, the prevalence of diarrhea, a high level of anxiety and frequent refusal of milk and dairy products. The phenotype "IBS in overweight and obese individuals" is characterized by L/L genotypes of the SLC6A4 gene, met/met of the COMT gene and A/A of the FTO gene, constipation, low plasma dopamine levels, signs of depression, frequent episodes of overeating, addiction to fatty and sweet foods, excessive consumption of sugar, lack of vegetables in the diet. The "comorbid IBS phenotype" is characterized by more frequent detection of the val/val genotype of the COMT gene and the carriage of the S allele of the SLC6A4 gene, clinically pronounced anxiety and depression, early onset of the disease, severe course, significant food restrictions and significant increase in epithelial permeability. With the "essential phenotype", there are no bright stigmas of the disease; it is not possible to identify distinctive genetic and epigenetic factors, as well as the leading pathogenetic mechanism. CONCLUSION: The analysis of genetic and epigenetic factors, the leading mechanisms of the formation and course of IBS allows us to identify additional (except for "postinfectious") phenotypes of the disease: "IBS in overweight and obese people", "comorbid" and "essential".

BACKGROUND: Given the current trends in increasing the life expectancy of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), the study of the risk of atherothrombotic events in them requires study. For effective prevention of cardiovascular diseases, it is necessary to assess cardiovascular risk factors since the concept of their timely detection is the basic one when planning preventive measures. AIM: To assess the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with UC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred eighty four UC patients participated in the case-control study; 56 participants were included in the control group. The studied parameters are unmodified, behavioral, and biological factors of cardiovascular risk. The study participants were surveyed, examined, measured blood pressure, height, weight, the level of total cholesterol was studied, and the lipid spectrum was analyzed in 80 patients with UC. Parametric and nonparametric statistical methods were used. RESULTS: UC patients consumed fruit less often, drank tea and coffee with sugar more often, exercised less often and experienced high levels of stress. A higher incidence of arterial hypertension in UC patients was established, even though the fact of taking glucocorticosteroids was considered. No significant differences were found in the assessment of relative and total cardiovascular risk. CONCLUSION: Risk management of cardiovascular diseases in UC patients should focus on a personalized approach and timely screening of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors with their subsequent correction. The absence of significant differences in the level of relative and total cardiovascular risk indicates a limited contribution of traditional risk factors to the development of cardiovascular diseases in UC patients.

BACKGROUND: First-line therapy does not always provide a high level of Helicobacter pylori eradication due to the increase of H. pylori resistance to antibiotics; therefore, it remains necessary to identify the most effective rescue treatments. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of empirical H. pylori furazolidone-containing regimens. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Adult H. pylori infected patients empirically treated with furazolidone-containing eradication regimens were registered in an international, prospective, multicenter non-intervention European registry on H. pylori management (Hp-EuReg). Data were collected at AEG-REDCap e-CRF from 2013 to 2021 and the quality was reviewed. Modified intention-to-treat (mITT) effectiveness analyses were performed. RESULTS: Overall 106 patients received empirical furazolidone-containing therapy in Russia. Furazolidone was prescribed in a sequential scheme along with amoxicillin, clarithromycin and a proton pump inhibitor in 68 (64%) cases, triple regimens were prescribed in 28 (26%) patients and quadruple regimens in 10 (9.4%). Treatment duration of 7 days was assigned to 2 (1.9%) patients, 10-day eradication therapy in case of 80 (75%) and 14 days - in 24 (23%) patients. Furazolidone was mainly used in first- (79%) and second-line (21%) regimens. The methods used to diagnose H. pylori infection were: histology (81%), stool antigen test (64%), 13C-urea breath test (6.6%), and rapid urease test (1.9%). The mITT effectiveness of sequential therapy was 100%; 93% with the triple therapy and 75.5% with quadruple therapy. Compliance was reported in 98% of cases. Adverse events were revealed in 5.7% of patients, mostly nausea (3.8%). No serious adverse events were reported. CONCLUSION: Furazolidone containing eradication regimens appear to be an effective and safe empirical therapy in Russia.

BACKGROUND: Recently, there has been an increase in the prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in Northern Europe, North America and East Asia. However data on GERD prevalence in Russian population are very limited. AIM: To determine the prevalence of GERD among the population of Russia, the clinical spectrum of GERD symptoms, the main drugs used for GERD treatment, and the rate of their administration. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was conducted from November 2015 to January 2017 in 8 cities of Russia. A survey of patients over the age of 18 years old visiting outpatient medical institutions for any reason, including patients without gastrointestinal complaints was carried out using a short version of the Mayo Clinic questionnaire. RESULTS: In total, 6132 questionnaires of patients aged 1890 years were analyzed [2456 men (40.1%) and 3676 women (59.9%), mean age 46.615.4 years]. The GERD prevalence among the interviewed patients was 34.2%. The incidence of GERD increased depending on body mass index and the age of the patients. Medications used by the patients for heartburn relief included proton pump inhibitors 59.96%, antacids 67.92%, H2-histamine receptor blockers 11.42%, alginates 18.41% of patients. CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate a high prevalence of GERD among residents of Russian cities applying for primary health care (34.2%). In comparison with previous studies, an increase in the proportion of GERD patients taking proton pump inhibitors was noted; in most cases the regimen of their intake was in accordance with the recommendations.

We discussed about the term intestinal permeability like as the mucosal barrier a single structural and functional conception that includes the layer of mucus, the indigenous microbiota and the epithelium of the mucosa in this publication. Information was presented about the role of the microbiota, the composition of intestinal mucus, epithelial cells and proteins of tight junctions which lead to various metabolic diseases. The complex pathogenetic interactions are formed between the intestinal mucosal barrier, metabolic disorders such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and cardiovascular diseases. The complex researches and modification of this interactions will allow to create personalized approaches and to prevent of these diseases.
RESUMO
AIM: To determine the diagnostic value of clinical features of the comorbid course of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and gallstone disease (GD) to improve the effectiveness of patient management. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 183 patients with NAFLD were included into the open comparative study. The main group was represented by patients with NAFLD and GD (n=88), of which 53 patients underwent cholecystectomy (CE). The comparison group was represented by patients with NAFLD without GD (n=95). A standard laboratory and instrumental examinations were performed, including elastometry to assess of the stage of liver fibrosis. RESULTS: There were more women in the main group (2=8.48; p0.01). There were positive correlations between the age of patients and the duration of NAFLD with the presence of GD and CE (rs=0.135; p0.01 and rs=0.168; p0.01 respectively). Patients of the main group had the general weakness and fatigue (2=11.33, rs=0.234; p0.01 and 2=15.68, rs=0.281; p0.01 respectively), as well as a bitter taste in the mouth (2=11.66; p0.01; rs=0.147; p0.01). Coronary heart disease was diagnosed more often among people suffering from NAFLD and GD (25% vs 9.47% in patients of the comparison group, p0.01). Both of NAFLD and GD were associated with the development of type 2 diabetes (rs=0.164; p0.01). Individuals suffering from GD after CE had higher LDL and GGT values (rs=0.228; p0.01 and rs=0.298; p0.01 respectively). The number of people with advanced fibrosis were significantly higher (26.31%) in the GD group, especially among people after CE (30.18%). The stage of liver fibrosis had a positive significant relationship with CE (rs=0.366; p0.01). CONCLUSION: Patients suffering from GD and NAFLD had a symptom of dyspepsia and general weakness. High prevalence of type 2 diabetes and Ñoronary heart disease, high level of LDL and GGT were found in patients with GD and after CE. CE in patients suffering from GD and NAFLD was associated with the formation of progressive stages of liver fibrosis.

AIM: To update information about comorbidity of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and gallstones disease (GD), evaluation of clinical and laboratory data, including insulin, leptin and adiponectin in individuals with NAFLD in combination with GD. MATERIALS AND METHODS: According to the design, we conducted an open comparative study of 169 patients with NAFLD. The following comparison groups were formed: group 1 (n=95) patients with NAFLD without GD, group 2 (n=35) patients with NAFLD and GD and group 3 (n=39) patients with NAFLD, GD and previous cholecystectomy. RESULTS: A high prevalence of coronary heart disease was found in the group of patients with GD and cholecystectomy (2=6.198,p0.05); positive, statistically significant correlation relationships of cholelithiasis, cholecystectomy with ischemic heart disease (rs=0.172,p0.05 andrs=0.241,p0.05, respectively). There was a statistically significant decrease in total bilirubin and total protein in patients of group 3 (H=7.376,p0.03 and H=6.345,p0.04). The level of leptin is statistically significantly higher and positively interrelated with cholecystectomy (H=5.812,p0.05,rs=0.313,p0.05). CONCLUSION: Patients with NAFLD, GD and previous cholecystectomy have a high prevalence of coronary heart disease; the phenomenon of insulin and leptin resistance, high level of adiponectin were revealed in patients with NAFLD and gallstones; hyperleptinemia was observed among patients with NAFLD, GD after cholecystectomy.

Insufficient knowledge age peculiarities of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in the elderly against the background of its prevalence determine the high demand for studies on the topic. In an open study cohort by cross-sectional analysis was conducted clinical features GERD patients older age groups. By continuous sampling of 90 patients taken away: the main group - 45 persons 60-86, comparison group - 45 persons 25-59 years. Found that for GERD in patients older than 60 years has its own characteristics. Maximum observed incidence of GERD in the range of 60-69 years (57%) with a further reduction. More typical is a decrease in the frequency of heartburn (p<0,05) with increasing retrosternal pain (p<0,001) and dysphagia (p<0,05) and coughing (p<0,001) with simultaneous increase in the number of complaints from various organs and systems. In this case, deterioration of health associated with a statistically significant reduction in quality of life parameters when compared with the young. When survey by questionnaire SF-36 in elderly patients reported a more marked reduction of scales that characterize the physical and psychological health of the component against high polymorbidity. Identified features of the flow of GERD in the elderly, may be useful for streamlining diagnosis and therapy.

The multicenter prospective observational study initiated by the European Helicobacter and Microbiota Study Group (EHMSG) is conducted in 27 countries in Europe. The data from the Russian part of the European registry for the management of Helicobacter pylori infection (European Registry on the management of Helicobacter pylori infection, protocol: "Hp-EuReg") allows us to analyze the real clinical practice of diagnosis and treatment of H. pylori and compare it with international recommendations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A comparative analysis of the data entered in the register by the Russian research centers "Hp-EuReg", in the period from 2013 to 2018, was conducted. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Invasive diagnostic methods prevail for the primary diagnosis of H. pylori [histology - 20.3% (in 2013 year) - 43.9% (in 2018 year), rapid urease test - 31.7% and 47.8% respectively]. The most popular mode of eradication therapy is a 10-day triple therapy (62.8-76.2%), the effectiveness of which does not exceed 79% (per protocol). Invasive tests (histology) are the leading method for control the effectiveness of therapy, however, there is a tendency towards a wider use of non-invasive methods (H. pylori stool antigen - from 17% in 2013 to 29.3% in 2018 and urea breath test from 6.9 to 18.3%, respectively). Serological test to control the effectiveness of eradication is still used from 8.2% (2013) to 6.1% (2018). Eradication therapy was not performed in 28% of patients throughout the entire observation period. CONCLUSION: In Russia, despite approved domestic and international recommendations, deviations in clinical practice persist, both during eradication therapy and in monitoring the effectiveness of eradication therapy.

AIM: European Registry on the management of Helicobacter pylori infection («Hp-EuReg¼) - a multicenter prospective observational study initiated by the European Helicobacter and Microbiota Study Group, conducted in 27 European countries in order to evaluate the real clinical practice of diagnosis and treatment of H. pylori and its comparison with international recommendations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The analysis of 2360 patients entered in the register by the Russian centres of «Hp-EuReg¼ in 2013-2017, who were underwent 1st line eradication therapy. RESULTS: The most common methods of primary diagnosis of H. pylori are histological (37.7%), rapid urease test (29.2%) and serology (29.7%). The duration of eradication therapy in 9.4% of cases was 7 days, in 65.3% - 10 days, and in 25.3% - 14 days. To control the effec- tiveness of treatment, H. pylori antigen in feces (31.3%), urea breath test (23.4%) and histological method (23.3%) were used. In 3.6% cases was used serology by mistake. In 17.3% of patients control was not carried out. The effectiveness of triple therapy with a PPI, amoxicillin, clar- ithromycin (per protocol) was 67.6%, with 7-day course, 81.1% at 10-day and 86.7% at 14-day course. Eradication rate of triple therapy with addition of bismuth (per protocol) reached 90,6% in the group receiving 10-day scheme and 93.6% in the group receiving the 14-day treatment. CONCLUSION: Significant deviations of clinical practice from expert recommendations, most pronounced at the stage of monitoring the effectiveness of therapy, were noted. The suboptimal efficacy of triple therapy is shown.

AIM: To compare the characteristics of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) by age groups, a wide range of clinical signs, including life-of-quality (QOL) indicators, and instrumental findings. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A total of 110 patients aged 18 to 86 years with GERD were examined in accordance with the standard protocol. Two groups with equal numbers of patents were formed. A study group included elderly and senile patients and a control group consisted of young and adult ones. RESULTS: The elderly patients with GERD were observed to have a number of age-related clinical features and age-unrelated symptoms. The scores in the scales characterizing the physical health component and those in the general health and vital activity scales were markedly decreased in patients older than 60 years of age. No age-related statistically significant differences were found in the esophageal, gastric, and duodenal mucosae. Daily pH-metry in the elderly showed indirect evidence for esophageal hypomotor dyskinesia in the predominance of alkaline refluxes. CONCLUSION: The cohort of elderly patients with GERD was ascertained to have statistically significant clinical characteristics, and QOL and pH-metry indicators, which will be able to improve methods for diagnosis and early prevention in this age group.

AIM: To reveal the specific features of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) associated with obesity and overweight, by investigating the clinical and endoscopic manifestations of the disease, 24-hour pH-metry scores, and leptin levels. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A total of 131 patients with GERD were examined. The data about complaints and those from life and medical histories were collected; anthropometric measurements and the results of blood biochemical tests, esophagoduodenoscopy (EPDS), and pH-metry were assessed; and the serum levels of leptin and its receptor were estimated. The patients were allocated into a study group (104 obese and/or overweight patients) and a comparison one (27 normal weight people). RESULTS: Waist circumference, hip circumference, and blood glucose levels proved to be statistically significantly higher in the study group (p<0.00000, p<0.00002, and p<0.02, respectively). The obese patients were found to have a statistically significantly higher level of leptin and a lower level of its soluble receptors: the median leptin levels were 30.42 (13.42-45.62) ng/ml in the study group and 5.47 (3.35-7.68) ng/ml in the comparison group; the median levels of the receptors were 18.83 (14.98-25.11) ng/ml and 30.93 (24.68-33.53) ng/ml, respectively). This group showed a moderate negative correlation between these indicators (rs=-0.451; p<0.0004). The study group displayed higher pH values in the gastric cardia and body (p<0.05 and p<0.04, respectively). The mucosal contact time with the refluxate having with a low pH value (<4) in the above segments turned out to be longer in the comparison group (p<0.05). There were weight-independent relationships of the leptin level to its spread, aggressiveness quotient, to the highest pH value in the gastric cardia and body, and to the mucosal contact time with the refluxate having a pH below 4.0 (rs=0.543; p<0.006; rs=0.432; p<0.04; rs=0.431; p<0.04; rs=-0.450; p<0.03, respectively), leptin receptors with a pH ratio in the gastric cardia and body, to the number of reflux episodes longer than 5 minutes in the esophagus, and to the De Meester index for this indicator (rs=0.471; p<0.04; rs=-0.455; p<0.04; rs=-0,454; p<0.04, respectively). CONCLUSION: Obese and overweight patients develop GERD in the presence of leptin resistance and biliary tract disease, which determines the specific features of the disease (alkaline or mixed refluxate) and the need for individualized therapy.

AIM: To estimate the diagnostic and informative value of clinical and laboratory parameters in the development and progression of liver fibrosis in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to enhance efficiency of their treatment. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: An open-label case-control study included 77 patients with NAFLD. Clinical and laboratory examinations were done. To search for additional noninvasive fibrosis markers, the investigators studied the serum concentrations of insulin, leptin, adiponectin, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and its inhibitors, such as tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP-1) and TIMP-2. All the patients underwent elastometry to assess the degree of liver fibrosis with the Metavir scale with the use of a Fibroscan machine. RESULTS: The serum levels of low-density lipoproteins, glucose, MMP-9, and leptin proved to be most informative in assessing the progression of the initial stages (1-2) of fibrosis, as were the increased liver size detected by physical examination, systolic blood pressure, carbohydrate metabolic disorders, alanine/aspartate aminotransferase levels, waist-to-hip ratio, TIMP-1, and TIMP-2 in evaluating the progression of Stage II fibrosis 2 to Stage 3. CONCLUSION: The clinical and laboratory parameters can serve as reliable noninvasive markers that reflect the progression of fibrotic changes in liver tissue.

MATERIALs AND METHODS: The data of 813 patients infected with H. pylori and entered in the Hp-EuReg register by the Russian centers in 2013-2015 were analyzed. RESULTS: The most common methods for the primary diagnosis of H. pylori infection are histology (40.3%), rapid urease test (35.7%), and serology (17.2%). The duration of H. pylori eradication therapy was 7, 10, and 14 days in 18.0, 49.3, and 25.1%, respectively. To monitor the effectiveness of treatment, the investigators used a histological examination (34%), a urea breath test (27.3%), H. pylori stool antigen (22.8%), and a rapid urease test (16.3%). A serological test was carried out in 2.5% of the cases. No monitoring was done in 13.5% of the patients. The average eradication efficiency was 82.6%. If the therapy was ineffective, 80% of physicians did not intend to prescribe a new cycle of treatment. CONCLUSION: Significant differences were found between clinical practice and the current guidelines.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic value of MMP-9, TIMP-1 and 2 as non-invasive markers of liver fibrosis in the NAFLD to improve the management of patients with this pathology. Materials and methods: We examined 99 patients with NAFLD and different stages of fibrosis, 83 men, 16 women, median age 45 (range 40-55) years. We assessed of risk factors for liver fibrosis in the NAFLD, anthropometric indicators, biochemical analysis of blood, abdominal ultrasonic studies, the levels of MMP-9, TIMP-1 and 2. Depending on the stage of fibrosis (0-4), established as a result of liver elastometry (Fibroscan), patients were divided into 5 groups: n = 27, n = 22, n = 23, n = 14, n = 13, respectively. Results: Between the groups in medical history, physical examination, calculation of BMI and the ratio of waist to hip volume (W/H) no significant differences were found. 64,6% of patients had abdominal obesity (BMI - 31,5 (29,1-33,9), W/H - 1,02 (1,01-1,05). Obesity and abdominal obesity (BMI, W/H) had a significant positive relationship of moderate streight (rs = (0,257), p < 0,04, rs = (0,301), p < 0,02, respectively), with the stage of liver fibrosis. The groups were significant differences in the level of glucose, total bilirubin (p < 0,04, p < 0,03, respectively). At the time of the examination, 57,5% of patients had steatosis, other patients had steatohepatitis. No significant differences in the level of liver function tests (ALT, AST) in the study groups were found. Significant differences were found in level of TIMP-2 (p < 0,04). TIMP-2 had a significant positive correlation with the severity of fibrosis in the hepatic tissue (rs = (0,349), p < 0,004). Conclusion: TIMP-2 may be considered as a potential non-invasive marker for the diagnosis of liver fibrosis in patients with NAFLD.

OBJECTIVE: To study for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in patients with overweight and obesity, and to choose treatment approaches in this group of individuals. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Group of 131 patients suffering from GERD was formed. Patients completed questionnaires. We had performed a physical examination, laboratory and instrumental examination, measuring the level of leptin and its receptor. Cohort was divided into two groups: primary (n 104)- persons with obesity and excess weight, and the comparison group (n = 27) - people with normal body weight. All patients had been appointed drug Pantoprazole. Additionally we were recruited 20 patients followed by randomization to monotherapy with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), or a combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). RESULTS: Individuals both group often complained of regurgitation <~bitter? (21 = 8,03; p <0,001), the nature of biliary pain (21 = 1717; p <0,05). In this group non-erosive form of GERD, as well as Step C of reflux esophagitis most significantly were observed (p = 2,28; p <0,05). It was found that among the indicators of the main group of persons higher pH and cardia gastric body were identified. In the group of obese higher levels of leptin had identified (U = 67,0; Z = 4,35; p = 0,000), having a significant negative relationship with its receptor levels (rs = -0,452; p = 0,0004). Leptin was independent of BMI due to the pH-meter. in monotherapy PPIs in the study group the persistence of clinical symptoms was noted by the 28th day of therapy (82 (62,6 ± 4,2) of the patient), as well as the less significant increase in quality of life. In combination therapy (PPI + UDCA) symptoms (heartburn, bitter regurgitation) could more fully to stop and this data were statistically significant: (φ = 2,07; p < 0,05) and (φ = 3,51; p < 0,001), respectively. CONCLUSION: The features of the clinical course of GERD in patients with obesity and overweight were found, UDCA in the treatment of GERD in this category of persons can improve treatment outcomes.
