Schenlein-Genoch's Disease In Children: Clinical Characteristics
Get PDFThe article retrospectively analyzes the clinical course of hemorrhagic vasculitis in children and the characteristics of the course in children with associated pathologies. Currently, hemorrhagic vasculitis is one of the most common and frequent pathologies in the pediatric population. Its frequency is very variable and depends on the region, its level of economic development, diagnostic and statistical features. Various manifestations of hemorrhagic vasculitis clinical signs, the severity of the course of the disease, the consequences largely depend on the state of the coagulation and anticoagulation systems of hemostasis, and which organ is damaged, and kidney damage determines the probability of a severe course of the disease
Rising Trend of Infertility Among young married women in South-South
Get PDFInfertility is a concern to every reproductive age woman and their well-wishers and it’s on the increase across Africa. This raises concern among married women and their husband and is more rampant among both young and old in marriage. The aim of this study is to evaluate Rising Trend of Infertility Among Married women in the South-South. This was a descriptive study involving 350 female of reproductive age who were within the age of 18 to 47 years. A well-structured questionnaire was administered to participants. Each participant had one questionnaire to fill appropriately and independently after instructions were given to them by the Research Assistants. The study lasted for a period of 3 months. Exclusion criteria were those women that are not married, and are not up to reproductive age. Inclusion criteria are women that have done their investigations. Data was analyzed with SPSS version 26 and P value < 0.05 was considered significant. The results of the study shows that 42.9% of the respondents were within 28-32 years of age and 57.1% had tertiary education. The results revealed that 48.7% are business class, 71.4.7% are married, 71.4% yet to be pregnant, 42.9% have married between 2-4 years, 85.7% are been expecting baby, 71.3% do not have a child, 71.4% have breasts discharging milk, 90.0% had abortion, 77.1% have done investigations, and 87.5% of the participants were having infertility issue
Prevalence Of Hypospadias In The Population Of Children In Andizhan
No full textAn analysis of available approaches to the management of patients with hypospadias was carried out, as well as some controversial issues regarding diagnosis in this category of patients. As available data show, surgical treatment of hypospadias has not yet led to the restoration of aesthetic and functional components, as a result of which the optimization of surgical treatment in modern conditions continues to remain relevant the task of pediatric reconstructive plastic surgery. Attention is paid to such areas as standardization of approaches to surgical treatment of hypospadias, unification of methods of urethroplasty and correction of penile curvature. Data from clinical studies on the use of various surgical techniques are presente
Automated Diagnostics in Medicine and Their Role in Reducing Human Error
No full textAutomated diagnostic systems have become integral to modern medicine, offering significant improvements in the accuracy and efficiency of disease detection. By utilizing artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced data analysis techniques, these systems reduce the dependency on human judgment, which can be prone to errors caused by fatigue, bias, or varying levels of expertise. This paper explores the role of automated diagnostics in minimizing human error, enhancing diagnostic consistency, and supporting clinicians in making informed decisions. The benefits of automated tools, such as improved detection of subtle medical conditions and standardized evaluation protocols, are discussed alongside challenges related to integration, ethical considerations, and the necessity of maintaining human oversight. The study highlights the potential of automated diagnostics to improve patient safety and healthcare quality while emphasizing their complementary role in clinical practice
Uterine Diseases And Their Prevention
No full textUterine diseases encompass a wide range of conditions that can significantly impact women's health, fertility, and overall well-being. This overview examines common uterine disorders, including fibroids, endometriosis, adenomyosis, endometrial hyperplasia, and uterine cancer. The causes, symptoms, diagnostic methods, and treatment options for each condition are discussed. Special emphasis is placed on preventative measures, such as regular screenings, lifestyle modifications, hormonal management, and awareness of risk factors. Early detection and appropriate management are crucial for reducing morbidity and improving outcomes associated with uterine diseases. The aim is to provide a concise guide to understanding uterine diseases and promoting proactive strategies for prevention and early interventio
Padi4 In Predicting The Severity And Recovery Of Early Stroke
No full textA comparison of the results of the study with data on the role of PADI4 in transport and immunomodulation shows that this protein is important for cell regeneration and the prevention of irreversible consequences through the catalysis of posttranslational modifications. The level of PADI4 below 80.1 u/ml is associated with an increased risk of mortality, while its excess improves the chances of survival and correlates with favorable functional outcomes. Thus, measuring the level of PADI4 on the first day after an ischemic stroke can serve as an indicator of prognosis and a basis for correcting metabolic therap

Respiratory Diseases In Population Living Near Cement Manufacturing Facilities
No full textDust (PM₂.₅, PM₁₀), NO₂, SO₂ and heavy metals (chromium, cadmium, nickel) emitted into the atmosphere by cement production enterprises are one of the main risk factors for the development of respiratory diseases. The study analyzes the incidence of respiratory diseases (ARI, asthma, COPD, silicosis, lung cancer) in the population living near cement plants in Uzbekistan and foreign countries from a hygienic and epidemiological perspective. According to WHO and local statistical data, the risk of respiratory diseases increases by 1.5–2.0 times in areas with PM₁₀ concentrations exceeding 50 µg/m³. In the Akhangaron, Fergana and Navoi regions of Uzbekistan, this indicator exceeds WHO standards and poses a serious threat to the health of the population. The article also develops hygienic recommendations for air monitoring, technological filtration and sanitation measure

Assessment Of Metabolic Status Indicators In Children In Relation To Feeding
No full textThe type of infant feeding plays a crucial role in metabolic adaptation and long-term health outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate metabolic status indicators in children depending on the type of feeding during infancy. A total of 124 children were followed longitudinally for 14 years. Clinical and laboratory assessments included complete blood count, biochemical tests, and lipid profile analyses (LDL, HDL, triglycerides, and total cholesterol). Children who were exclusively breastfed demonstrated optimal lipid and carbohydrate metabolism parameters. In contrast, those who received mixed or artificial feeding showed signs of dyslipidemia, characterized by significantly higher triglyceride (1.2 ± 0.08 mmol/L vs. 0.74 ± 0.08 mmol/L, p < 0.05) and LDL levels (3.4 ± 0.11 mmol/L vs. 2.0 ± 0.01 mmol/L, p < 0.05). Early rapid weight gain was more frequent among artificially fed infants and was associated with later metabolic imbalance. These findings suggest that exclusive breastfeeding contributes to stable lipid and carbohydrate metabolism and helps prevent early metabolic disturbances. The type of feeding and early child care practices are key determinants of metabolic adaptation and prevention of obesity-related disorders in adolescence
