INFLUENCE OF PROBIOTICS ON THE MESOTHELIN LEVEL IN WOMEN WITH ENDOMETRIOSIS ASSOCIATED WITH INFERTILITY IN COMPLEX PREPARATION FOR ASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGIES.

OBJECTIVE: The aim: To study the determination of Mesothelin level in women with endometriosis associated with infertility and estimate influence of probiotic on endometriosis according of Mesothelin level in complex preparation before assisted reproductive technologies. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and methods: In this study, we conducted a retrospective analysis of the medical records of 40 infertile women who underwent assisted reproductive technologies while also using the probiotic "Femina Probiz." We divided the participants into two groups. The control group comprised 11 women who had tubal infertility due to a previous inflammatory condition but were otherwise found to be in good health through comprehensive clinical and laboratory assessments. These women, aged between 21 and 42 with an average age of 29.75 years, did not use the probiotic "Femina Probiz." The main group consisted of 29 women diagnosed with external genital endometriosis who were undergoing assisted reproductive technologies. Women in the main group received the probiotic "Femina Probiz" from Unic Biotech Ltd, India. They took one tablet twice a day for one month as part of their overall treatment before undergoing assisted reproductive technologies. We measured the Mesothelin levels before and after this preparation phase. This study was conducted at Bukovinian State Medical University and Centre of Reproductive Medicine. It's worth noting that the primary infertility incidence was significantly higher in the main group of patients. RESULTS: Results: In the main group, we observed that the Mesothelin level was 0.73±0.01, which was significantly higher than the post-preparation level (0.59±0.01). In contrast, the control group had a Mesothelin level of 0.49±0.01. Interestingly, we noted that the Mesothelin level in patients increased approximately twofold before preparation compared to those who had undergone preparation. This suggests that the use of the probiotic led to a sharp reduction in the elevated Mesothelin levels. Consequently, the significant decrease in Mesothelin levels after using the probiotic indicates its effectiveness and potential utility in the preparation phase of assisted reproductive technologies programs. CONCLUSION: Conclusions: The elevated Mesothelin levels indicate a strong association between the pathogenesis of endometriosis and inflammation, as well as damage to the peritoneum. The incorporation of a probiotic as part of a comprehensive preparation regimen prior to assisted reproductive technologies notably enhances the overall health of patients and leads to a reduction in Mesothelin levels. Based on our findings, we highly recommend the inclusion of this probiotic preparation in clinical practice.

Pregnancy and umbilical cord pathology: structural and functional parameters of the umbilical cord.

Scientific research in the field of physiology and pathology of the umbilical cord is quite limited and imperfect. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the histological architecture of the pathological umbilical cord and investigate the relationship between the main parameters and placental postnatal macromorphometric characteristics, which serve as a reflection of placental dysfunction. Four groups of patients were included, each undergoing a postnatal histological and topographic examination of the umbilical cord: Wharton's jelly edema (10 samples), velamentous cord insertion (10 samples), single umbilical artery (10 samples), and physiological pregnancy (10 samples). Compared to the control group, all newborn groups exhibited changes in umbilical vessel morphology, characterized by an increased Wagenworth index and a decreased Kernohan index. The functional indices of the umbilical vessels were found to be most severely affected in cases of Wharton's jelly edema. In cases of single umbilical artery, the changes in vascular functional parameters indicated their compensatory remodeling with the highest Wagenworth and Kernohan indices of the umbilical vein. Deviation from the normal average placental weight was observed in cases of Wharton's jelly volume pathology or velamentous cord insertion. However, in the case of a single umbilical artery, there were no significant deviations in the macromorphometry of the placenta.

A NEW APPROACH TO ASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGIES PREPARATION IN WOMEN WITH ENDOMETRIOSIS ASSOCIATED INFERTILITY USING PROBIOTICS.

OBJECTIVE: Aim: To examine the expression Nlrp3-inflammasome in the blood of women with endometriosis-associated infertility using assisted reproductive technologies with included probiotic and estimate a new approach with included probiotic for preparation to assisted reproductive technologies. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and methods: For the purpose of the research we examined 30 infertile women. Control group consisted of 10 women with tubal infertility due to an inflammatory process in the anamnesis, in whom, as a result of a complex clinical and laboratory examination, no other diseases were detected and in terms of their health they could be equated with practically healthy women (age from 21 to 42 years, the average age was 29.75 years) and who did not take probiotic. The main group consists from 20 women with external genital endometriosis were included in assisted reproductive technologies. Patients from main group took probiotic produced by Unic Biotech Ltd, India. 1 tablet twice a day with 10×109 Lactobacillus during 1 month in complex preparation (treatment) before assisted reproductive technologies. The indices of Nlrp3 - Inflammasome determined before and after preparation. The study was performer in Bukovinian State Medical University and Centre of Reproductive Medicine. To analyze the expression of the NLPP3-inflammasome gene and determine the relative normalized expression of NLPP3 mRNA, we used the polymerase chain reaction with reverse transcription in real time (RT-PCR). The object for molecular genetic studies by the RT-PCR method was the fraction of mononuclear cells isolated from the whole blood of patients with endometriosis. The value of p (authenticity difference) was determined by Student's table-Fischer. Differences between contrasting averages were considered significant at p <0.05. RESULTS: Results: Analized the results of our research stated that in main group expression of Nlrp-3 inflammasome was 24,43, which is significantly higher than after preparation (0,70 accordingly). In control group expression of Nlrp3-inflammasome was 0,54. Expression of Nlrp-3 inflammasome increased in patients before preparation more than 34 times compare with patients after preparation accordingly. CONCLUSION: Conclusions: consequently, after using probiotic, the increased level of Nlrp3-inflammasome sharply decreases, indicating the effectiveness and the possibility of use in the programme for assisted reproductive technologies preparation.

Mueller-matrix imaging polarimetry elevated by wavelet decomposition and polarization-singular processing for analysis of specific cancerous tissue pathology.

Significance: Mueller-matrix polarimetry is a powerful method allowing for the visualization of malformations in biological tissues and quantitative evaluation of alterations associated with the progression of various diseases. This approach, in fact, is limited in observation of spatial localization and scale-selective changes in the poly-crystalline compound of tissue samples. Aim: We aimed to improve the Mueller-matrix polarimetry approach by implementing the wavelet decomposition accompanied with the polarization-singular processing for express differential diagnosis of local changes in the poly-crystalline structure of tissue samples with various pathology. Approach: Mueller-matrix maps obtained experimentally in transmitted mode are processed utilizing a combination of a topological singular polarization approach and scale-selective wavelet analysis for quantitative assessment of the adenoma and carcinoma histological sections of the prostate tissues. Results: A relationship between the characteristic values of the Mueller-matrix elements and singular states of linear and circular polarization is established within the framework of the phase anisotropy phenomenological model in terms of linear birefringence. A robust method for expedited (up to ∼15 min) polarimetric-based differential diagnosis of local variations in the poly-crystalline structure of tissue samples containing various pathology abnormalities is introduced. Conclusions: The benign and malignant states of the prostate tissue are identified and assessed quantitatively with a superior accuracy provided by the developed Mueller-matrix polarimetry approach.

Probiotics and NLRP3 mRNA inflammasome levels in women with endometriosis-related infertility undergoing assisted reproductive technologies.

This research was conducted at Bukovinian State Medical University and the Centre of Reproductive Medicine and included a total of 30 infertile women. The control group consisted of 10 women with tubal infertility resulting from a prior history of inflammation, who, following a comprehensive clinical and laboratory assessment, exhibited no other underlying health conditions and could be regarded as essentially healthy individuals. Participants in the control group ranged from 21 to 42 years, with an average age of 29.75 years. The control group did not receive the probiotic Femina Probiz. The main group, on the other hand, included 20 women diagnosed with external genital endometriosis who were undergoing assisted reproductive technologies. These patients were administered the probiotic Femina Probiz manufactured by Unic Biotech Ltd in India. They were instructed to take one tablet containing 10×10^9 Lactobacillus organisms twice daily for one month as part of their preparatory treatment before proceeding with assisted reproductive technologies. The levels of NLRP3 inflammasome were measured before and after this preparatory phase. The incidence of primary infertility was significantly higher in patients belonging to the main group.

The informativeness of the Johns-matrix image of laser autofluorescence in blood plasma films for early diagnosis of endometriosis associated with infertility.

We used Jones-matrix images of protein networks of blood plasma films obtained from laser autofluorescence and determined the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and prognostication of positive and negative results. Our study aimed (1) to develop and substantiate new approaches for the diagnosis of endometriosis by improving the methods of Jones-matrix mapping of laser-induced auto-fluorescence and (2) to develop statistical approaches for analyzing the distribution of values of the true component of Jones-matrix images of blood plasma. Biological preparations were performed for two groups: 35 samples from control group 1 (women with infertility of unknown origin) and 85 samples from group 2 with endometriosis (women with infertility and endometriosis). The strength of the Jones-matrix method of autofluorescence mapping of plasma proteins taken from both groups was maximal for the decisions determined based on the calculation of the statistical moment of the 4th order, for statistical moment Z4, characterizing the sharpness of the peak distribution of the polycrystalline component of the plasma film. Comparison with the similar informative data of the Jones-matrix laser autofluorescence method of histological sections of the endometrial biopsy under conditions of blind endometriosis diagnosis revealed this method of analysis highly informative. Therefore, this technique can be used in screening studies to form a risk group.

Regarding the indexes of hematological index of intoxication, which decreased during the treatment of patients of the main group, and different from the patients of the control group, in which this indicator increased sharply. The result of the study of changes in the indicators of sorption capacity of erythrocytes showed that the level of sorption capacity of erythrocytes in patients in the main group during treatment, also decreased, compared with patients in the control group. CONCLUSION: Conclusions: Therefore, the use of ozone in the treatment of patients with complicated forms of diabetes does not cause a negative impact on the dynamics of homeostasis and indicators of the level of intoxication of the body. Ozone therapy has a beneficial effect on the course and wound process in patients with diabetes with purulent processes.

State of hormonal balance in adolescent girls with menstrual function disorders associated with obesity.

Investigation of the mechanisms promoting the development of menstrual function disorders associated with obesity in adolescent girls is one of the most important issues of modern medicine. This study included 110 patients. 79 patients aged 12-18 with menstrual disorders associated with obesity were divided into two groups: group 1: 46 patients with apparent signs of hyperandrogenism, group 2: 33 patients without clinical manifestations of hyperandrogenism. The control group included 31 girls of the same age with a regular menstrual cycle. The complex of hormone examination of adolescent girls included determination of serum content: gonadotropic hormones (luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), prolactin (PRL), estradiol (E2), testosterone (T), progesterone (PR), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate; insulin (In) - radioisotope method on a gamma counter "Narcotest" (reagents "IMMUNOTECH", Czech Republic). We identified hyperleptinemia and leptin resistance in patients with menstrual function impairment associated with obesity. In group I, the adiponectin level exceeded the values of the control group (p<0.05). The results revealed a decrease in A/L in group I - 5.4 times compared with patients in group II (p<0.05) and 4.3 times - compared with the control group (p<0.05). The results revealed a decrease in A/L among girls in the group I with MFI associated with obesity - 4.3 times - compared with girls in the control group (p<0,05).

Peculiairities of the influence nitrogen monoxide synthesis blockade on circadian organization of kidney acid-regulating function under conditions of pineal gland hyperfunction.

OBJECTIVE: Introduction: In recent decades chronobiology - a science that studies the regularities of the functioning of the organism, especially biological rhythms is developing rapidly. Biorhythms are stable nonstopper lifetime fluctuations with individual amplitude-frequency characteristics. Kidneys are characterized by a clear time organization of functions too, however, the peculiarities of circadian organization and the mechanisms of the participation of intracellular messengers in particular nitrogen monoxide (NО) in biorhythmic regulation of renal functions, remain insufficiently studied The aim of our work was to investigate the peculiairities of the influence nitrogen monoxide synthesis blockade on circadian organization of kidney acid-regulating function under conditions of pineal gland hyperfunction. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and methods: The experiments were conducted on 72 mature non-linear albino male rats with their body mass 0,15-0,18 kg. The animals were kept under vivarium conditions at a stable temperature and air humidity fed on a standard dietary intake. The control group included animals (n=36) kept under conditions of usual light regimen (12.00L:12.00D) during 7 days. The experimental group included animals (n=36) injected with N-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA) in the dose of 20 mg/kg during 7 days under conditions of continuous absolute darkness (12.00D:12.00D). On the 8th day the animals were exposed to 5& water load with heated to room temperature water supplied and the parameters of the kidney acid-regulating function under conditions of forced diuresis were investigated. RESULTS: Results: The inhibition of the monoxide synthesis (NО) in conditions of pineal gland (PG) hyperfunction violated the structures of chronorhythms acid-regulating function of the kidneys. The decrease in urine pH at daytime intervals was due to a decrease in the level of hydrogen ion excretion during this period of the day. The introduction of the NО blocker against the background of the PG hyperfunction violated the structure of the acid esterification chronorhythms that are titrated. The maximum level of this indicator was recorded at 20.00 a.m. a day. The blockade of the synthesis NО on the background of the PG hyperfunction significantly reduced the level of excretion of ammonia. CONCLUSION: Conclusions: The maximum level of excretion was 12.00 a.m., bathyphase - at 24.00 a.m. The average daily level was 1.5 mcmol/100 mcl GF and was lower relative to the control animals and animals that were in the conditions of PG hyperfunction.
