[Historical aspects of the formation and development of children's health resort medicine in the Samara region]. / Istoricheskie aspekty formirovaniya i razvitiya detskoi kurortnoi meditsiny v Samarskom regione.

Archive documents and sources in scientific electronic databases were analyzed in order to study the historical origins of the health resort business in terms of children's health resort medicine in the Samara government. It has been established that the period of origin and intensive development of balneology for children in the Samara region occurred at the beginning of the 20th century and the first children's sanatoriums began to function thanks to the initiative of the Society of Governmental Physicians for charitable funds of the Samara nobility and merchantry in territories with natural and climatic therapeutic factors, namely Sernovodsky resort, Barboshina glade and Postnikov ravine. A comparative analysis of the dynamics of morbidity structure of children admitted for sanatorium treatment, as well as general education institutions, from which information on the health of school pupils is received, has been conducted over a period of 120 years. Despite the change of years and generations, there is a general concept of sanatorium health improvement of school pupils as a future social and economic pillar of society, with the formation of a healthy generation for both the region and the country in general.

[Analysis of the effectiveness of various methods of rehabilitation of patients with subacromial impingement syndrome]. / Analiz effektivnosti primeneniya razlichnykh metodov reabilitatsii patsientov s subakromial'nym impindzhment-sindromom.

INTRODUCTION: Subacromial impingement syndrome is a common pathology that leads to a persistent decrease in the functioning of the affected limb and, as a consequence, a decrease in the quality of life and work ability of patients. According to various authors, the study of the effectiveness of treatment and rehabilitation of this pathology is quite widely presented in the literature: surgical, including arthroscopic operations, rehabilitation using various factors of physical therapy, manual and other practices. However, the issue of assessing the effectiveness of movement therapy, both alone and in combination with other therapeutic methods, remains relevant. AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic gymnastics procedures, both monotherapy and in combination with manual massage according to the therapeutic method and extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome of the shoulder, in order to reduce pain and improve the function of the shoulder joint. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included 70 patients whose age was 42.18±10.42 years. Patients were divided into two main groups: group 1 (n=34) and group 2 (n=36). All patients received a course of treatment, including 10 procedures of therapeutic exercises, with recommendations at the end of the course for continuation in the form of independent studies using the proven methodology. The duration of the course of therapeutic exercises (in the form of procedures with a physical therapy instructor and subsequent independent studies) was 30 days. Patients in group 2 were divided into three subgroups: subgroup 2A, in which PH procedures were combined with massage of the cervical-collar area and the upper limb area of the affected side; subgroup 2B, where PH gymnastics was carried out in combination with extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) procedures; subgroup 2C - a comprehensive program including LH procedures, manual massage and shock wave therapy. RESULTS: 3 months after the end of the course of rehabilitation measures, patients of all groups showed a significant improvement in scores on the ASES and VAS scales, but there were no reliably significant differences between the results of different groups. CONCLUSION: The study indicates that movement therapy is an effective method of rehabilitation for patients with subacromial impingement syndrome, and conducting complex programs in which PH is combined with other rehabilitation methods (massage, shock wave therapy) doesn't have statistically significant advantages over PH alone within a 3-month observation period.

[The comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation of the disabled: the examples of evaluation of regional system].

In the Russian Federation, comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation of the disabled is actively developing effected by the UN Convention on the Rights of the Disabled. In 2018-2019, the quantitative indicators of comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation were studied in 85 regions of Russia. In 36 regions (42/4%) formation of system of comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation was necessary. The remaining 49 regions required improving their systems of comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation (57.6%, respectively). The study results demonstrated that significant increase in rehabilitation organizations (from 12.0% in 2018 to 100.0% in 2021) to be included in regional system of comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation is expected. In the Republic of Dagestan, the final rating of comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation system was from 6.5 to 7.6 points that indicates the need to organize and to improve comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation system in the region. The experience of the Sverdlovsk Oblast and the Perm Krai where pilot project on comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation system was carried out proved that one of the effective mechanisms of organizing comprehensive rehabilitation and abilitation system is development of state regional program by the authorities with involvement of all interested players and public organizations.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the efficacy and safety of therapeutic exercises and chest hardware massage in electrostatic field in patients with COVID-associated viral pneumonia. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 1551 patients admitted to the Clinical Hospital No. 1 (MEDSI Group JSC) with COVID-associated pneumonia between April 01, 2020 and June 15, 2021 (ICD-10 U07.1 and U07.2). Considering inclusion and exclusion criteria, we enrolled 153 patients. All patients were divided into comparable groups and subgroups depending on the methods of rehabilitation treatment and CT stage of viral pneumonia. Lung damage was assessed semi-automatically using Philips Portal v11 COPD software. Rehabilitation measures included therapeutic exercises and chest hardware massage in electrostatic field. therapeutic exercises. RESULTS: Therapeutic exercises significantly reduced severity of lung damage in patients with viral pneumonia CT-2 and no oxygen support (from 28.05% [28; 29.5] at admission to 15.3% [14.2; 19.3] at discharge). It was not observed in patients without rehabilitation treatment and in patients undergoing therapeutic exercises and massage in electrostatic field. CONCLUSION: Therapeutic exercises in patients with COVID-19 and baseline lung damage > 25% and < 50% (CT-2 stage) significantly reduce severity of lung damage at discharge compared to the control group.

Disability caused by hip joint injuries among the adult population of Moscow in for the period of 2013-2019.

The study found that the 2013-2019 period saw a decrease in the incidence of primary disability caused by hip joint injuries among the adult population of Moscow. The level of primary disability averaged 0.09 ± 0.03 per 10,000 adult population. In the structure of disability caused by injuries of the lower limbs, hip joint injuries accounted for 10.5% over the studied period. The age structure was dominated by disabled people above the working age with a tendency to decrease their share. In the nosological structure, people disabled as a result of femoral neck fractures (46.2%) and femur fractures (29.3%) prevailed. In the structure of people who were first recognized as disabled, disabled people of groups II and III prevailed (with a large proportion of disabled people of group III and a lower share of disabled people of group II). The proportion of people with disabilities in group I is the smallest, and it tends to decrease over the studied period. Among people above the working age, the disabled people of groups I and II prevailed while among people of the working age, the disabled people of groups II and III prevailed.The incidence of repeated disability of this contingent was also characterized by a downward trend. The level of repeated disability averaged 0.11 per 10,000 population. The share of people repeatedly recognized as disabled due to injuries of the lower limbs was 8.5%. The structure was dominated by people with disabilities caused by femoral neck and femur fractures. The period saw an increase in the proportion of disabled people of the working age. The disabled people of group III with a tendency to increase their share and the disabled people of group II with a tendency to decrease their share prevailed, and the number of disabled people of group I decreased.

[The rehabilitation, health path, mechanotherapy in recuperation of functional reserves of organism].

The article presents historical essays concerning each method of rehabilitation, period of its revision depending on time and pathological etiology of each disease, application of rehabilitation (health path, mechanotherapy), different modes of choosing each method of rehabilitation. The term "rehabilitation" became widespread after adoption of the Federal Law No. 181 of November 24, 1995 "On social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation". This is the set of measures targeted to recuperation of functional reserves of organism, improving quality of life, maintaining working capacity of patient, one's integration into society, reducing incapacitating states impact to support people with impaired functions to adapt to new conditions of life in society. The rehabilitation and habilitation are processes targeting to ensure that the disabled could be able to achieve and maintain optimal levels of physical, sensory, intellectual, psychological and/or social functioning. The rehabilitation covers wide range of activities, including rehabilitative medical care, physiotherapy, psychotherapy, logopedics and ergotherapy and supportive services too. The disabled are to have access to both general medical services and appropriate rehabilitation services.

[Effectiveness of medical rehabilitation of elderly patients who have suffered a myocardial infarction.]

At all stages of recovery after myocardial infarction (MI), the expansion of physical activity of elderly patients is one of the most important components. Of course, certain restrictions can reduce the load on the myocardium, reduce its oxygen needs and create conditions for early healing. Subsequently, depending on the dynamics and indicators of the cardiovascular system, the elderly patient is transferred from one stage of activity to another, the level of blood pressure, the number of heartbeats, the presence of arrhythmia, electrocardiogram data, EchoCG data, as well as individual load tolerance are evaluated. To date, there is a huge selection of optimal options for selecting methods of medical rehabilitation for elderly patients who have suffered a MI, and one of them is mechanotherapy. The mechanical therapy program of the David Back Concept complex - strength training is a set of simulators for working on the back muscles. The medical and diagnostic complex is designed for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of pathologies of the musculoskeletal system, as well as for the rehabilitation of patients after surgical interventions and spinal injuries. Medical rehabilitation of elderly patients with coronary heart disease and after a MI through mechanotherapy, the program of the David Back Concept complex, provides for the restoration of their physical and social status to an optimally achievable level, determined by the capabilities of adaptive mechanisms.

[Myostimulating effect of comprehensive application of general magnetotherapy, fractional CO2 laser, electro-myostimulation and special complex of exercise in patients with rectoceleal after open-peconstructure]. / Miostimuliruyushchii effekt kompleksnogo primeneniya obshchei magnitoterapii, fraktsionnogo CO2-lazera, elektromiostimulyatsii i spetsial'nogo kompleksa LFK u patsientok s rektotsele posle rekonstruktivno-plasticheskikh operatsii.

The article presents data on the treatment of 200 women of childbearing, peri - and menopausal age with rectocele of II-III degree, which were divided into 4 groups comparable in clinical and functional characteristics: 1-50 patients who, after surgical treatment of rectocele, underwent a complex consisting of a course of General magnetic therapy, 2 intra-vascular procedures of fractional microablative CO2 laser therapy, electromyostimulation with the pelvic floor muscles and a special complex of therapeutic physical education; comparison 1, which included 50 patients who underwent the above-mentioned complex of rehabilitation measures without General magnetotherapy; comparison of 2-50 patients after surgical treatment of rectocele, who in the late postoperative period (one month after the operation) underwent a set of rehabilitation measures, including a course of electromyostimulation with the biological connection of the pelvic floor muscles, consisting of 10 daily procedures and a special complex of physical therapy and a control group - 50 patients after surgical treatment of rectocele, who in the late postoperative period were treated with symptomatic therapy, including painkillers and antispasmodics, which served as a background for all other groups. As a result of the research, it was found that the developed rehabilitation complexes have a pronounced myostimulating effect, and can be recommended for wide use in rehabilitation programs for postoperative management of patients with rectocele.

Morphological signs of connective tissue dysplasia as predictors of frequent post-exercise musculoskeletal disorders.

BACKGROUND: Connective tissue dysplasia (CTD) is a risk factor for musculoskeletal disorders. Changes caused by disorganization of collagen and elastin fibers lead to the inability of withstanding heavy mechanical stress. In clinical practice, diagnosis of these disorders depends on physical and anthropomorphic evaluation. METHODS: Forty-eight patients with frequent post-exercise musculoskeletal disorders were evaluated for CTD. The control group included 36 healthy participants. Both groups were evaluated via therapeutic examination with assessment of anthropometric indicators and physical-physiological evaluation, surveying and gathering of anamnesis. Based on testing results, study participants were evaluated on CTD presence and risk factors. RESULTS: All experimental group patients had connective tissue dysplasia of moderate and severe degree, with a total score of 49.44 ± 13.1. Certain morphological characteristics showed prevalence, allowing to determine pathognomonic predictors of high predisposition to frequent post-exercise musculoskeletal disorders. Back pain (100%), asthenic syndrome and kyphotic spinal deformation (75%), high gothic palate, hypermobility of joints and the auricles, excessive elasticity (63%), varicose veins of the lower extremities (56%) and hemorrhoids (56%), changes in the shape of the legs and temporomandibular joint (50%) showed to be significant clinical factors indicating possible connective tissue dysplasia. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of these diagnostically significant morphological signs of CTD in humans is a pathognomonic predictor of a high predisposition to frequent injuries. Their early detection helps promote proper appointment of adequate physical activity regimen and develop treatment for the underlying cause.

[The efficiency and expediency of different rehabilitation approaches after knee replacement]. / Éffektivnost' i tselesoobraznost' razlichnykh podkhodov k reabilitatsii posle éndoprotezirovaniia kolennogo sustava.

The paper reviews the literature on the efficiency of different rehabilitation methods after knee arthroplasty, such as continuous passive motion (CPM) therapy, exercises for balance and strengthening of hip muscles on the postoperative leg, and aquatic rehabilitation. It analyzes the optimal periods of rehabilitation initiation and continuance, studies of the Pilates system for patients after knee arthroplasty, kinesiotaping, fast-track rehabilitation, and Locomat robotic system. Various functional tests and questionnaire surveys are considered as performance measures. CPM therapy and the Pilates method are shown to require an additional investigation for inclusion in the standard rehabilitation program. Balance exercises have a positive impact on functional status and mobility in patients after surgery. Exercises for strengthening the hip muscles on the postoperative leg and aquatic training are recommended for use in routine practice. Kinesiotaping is successfully used to more effectively perform exercises, by reducing pain, edema and to improve a patient's psychological status. The Locomat can be used for walking technology training, which will be able to enhance the structure of a step and amortization function. The time taken in the rehabilitation center can be reduced using the fast-track rehabilitation program.

[Mirizzi syndrome management (in Russian only)]. / Lechenie sindroma Mirizzi.

AIM: To assess an effectiveness of complex preoperative diagnosis, conservative treatment, minimally invasive biliary decompression for Mirizzi syndrome and to analyze surgical outcomes depending on the effectiveness of minimally invasive biliary decompression. MATERIAL AND METHODS: There were 67 patients with Mirizzi syndrome aged 27-96 years (mean age -64.8 years). The diagnosis was established on the basis of complaints, objective data, laboratory survey, abdominal X-ray, ultrasound (US), endoscopic gastroduodenoscopy (EGDS), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Extrahepatic bile duct visualization in case of suspected biliodigestive fistula was achieved by using of percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, cholecystocholangiography, intraoperative cholangiography. RESULTS: The analysis of the diagnosis and treatment of patients with Mirizzi syndrome and mechanical jaundice with and without symptoms of cholangitis was carried out. It should be noted that percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography and cholecystocholangiography with antegrade contrasting were able to confirm Mirizzi syndrome type 1 without complications. Retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with Mirizzi syndrome type 2 reduced the diagnostic value of contrast-enhancement with complications in every fifth patient. Percutaneous drainage for Mirizzi syndrome type 1 was effective in all patients. There was low effectiveness of medication for Mirizzi syndrome. Medication combined with antegrade biliary decompression was 7 times more effective than retrograde decompression. All patients underwent surgery. Mortality depended on surgical emergency and effectiveness of biliary decompression. So, emergency interventions were followed by mortality rate near 60% while there were no deaths after elective procedures. Overall mortality was 11.9%.

Oral medical dissolution of gallstones in patients with gallstone disease

Being the main treatment for cholelithiasis, laparoscopic cholecystectomy does not always solve the problem. It often entails postcholecystectomy syndrome (PCS). Oral medication to dissolve gallstones with bile acids is alternative therapy for some patients. However, lack of efficacy and limited medical indications make it necessary to apply combination treatment tactics. This study was conducted to investigate the dissolution of gallstones during the combined effects of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and rosuvastatin as well as to assess the results of eradication therapy in the presence of H. pylory as a measure to prevent cholelithiasis in the course of treatment.

[The Medical Social Aspects of Repeated Disability of Adult Population Due to Malignant Neoplasms in the Russian Federation].

The article presents the results of the analysis of the level and severity of repeated disability of the adult population due to malignant neoplasms in the Russian Federation. This pathology is associated with high prevalence and mortality, which makes it classify as socially significant. An effective solution to the problem of preventing the debilitating complications of malignant tumors requires the formation of a statistical database to evaluate the results of diagnostic and treatment-and-prophylactic measures and the development of optimal approaches to the medical and social rehabilitation of patients. The authors present the results of the study, which indicate that there is an age-related differentiation of adult disability due to malignant neoplasms -- elderly people predominate. In middle age, the level of recurrent disability due to this class of diseases decreases during the analyzed period (2008-2017). Among the population of young age, the tendency to change the level of recurrent disability is less stable, however, since 2014, there has been a trend for the growth rate. The structure of recurrent disability by severity is characterized by the predominance of persons with disabilities II (43.6%) and III (42.1%) disability groups with a lower proportion of persons with disabilities with I first disability group against the background of a uniform trend of increasing disability level of all three groups. The results of the ranking of subjects of the country by the level of re-disability due to malignant neoplasms among the adult population are presented. The selected subjects of the Russian Federation with a negative situation, which makes it possible to substantiate the need to strengthen measures for the prevention of primary disability and optimize the medical and social rehabilitation of patients suffering from this disabling pathology, taking into account regional features.

AIM: To analyze experimentally the outcomes of xenotransplantation (cadaveric artery, decellularized cadaveric artery) for tunica albuginea defects repair. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included 60 chinchilla rabbits. Rabbits underwent local replacement of tunica albuginea. Animals were divided into 2 groups (group 1 - human cadaveric artery, group 2 - decellularized cadaveric artery). The result was considered after 7, 14 and 30 days postoperatively. RESULTS: Tendency to stasis, sludge-phenomenon and ultimately development of fibrosis of transplantation area were histologically observed in group 1 after 30 days. In group 2 luminal surface of decellularized artery was smoothed, fibrin and blood elements were absent. In group 1 mean level of C-reactive protein was 3.86±0.43, 1.17±0.2 and 0.73±0.16 mg/L after 7, 14 and 30 days respectively. In group 2 the same values were 0.33±0.03, 0.23±0.03 and 0.11±0.02 mg/L. Differences were significant (t =-46.28, t = -25.95, t = -14.84; p<0.0001).
