QUALITY OF LIFE AND PSYCHO-COGNITIVE CONDITION IN PATIENTS AFTER CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFT SURGERY
Aim. To study psychic, cognitive status and life quality of petients underwentcoronary bypass grafting (CABG).Material and methods. Totally 81 patient with CHD studied (80% men, 20%women) with the age 56,3±1 y. o., underwent planned CABG. On 7–8th day afterCABG the 6-minute walk test (WT) was done and the Hospital anxiety-depressionscore used, Hamilton anxiety-depression score, Spielberger anxiety score and othermethods to assess asthenia and cognitive status (MMSE, MoCA). Life Quality (LQ)assessed with 10-points visual-analogue scale; coping behavioural strategiesstudied.Results. Values by WT were 415±130 m, LQ — 6±0,3 points. In 35% patients therewas lowering of cognitive functioning. In 20% there were affective disorders and thenegative correlation of WT with anxiety (r= –0,3; p<0,01), affective disorders with LQ(r= –0,53; p<0,05). Anxiety was comorbid to depression (r=0,91; p<0,05). Moderateand prominent asthenia registered in 36% and 18% of patients, asthenia was linkedwith affective (r=0,96; р<0,02) and cognitive (r=0,97; р<0,001) disorders. 46%patients used non-constructive and relatively constructive coping strategies.Conclusion. On 7–8th days after CABG in 35% patients there is lowering ofcognitive functioning and not less than 20% show signs of affective disorders, thatimpacts LQ of patients and tolerability of physical exertion. The anxiety anddepression revealed were associated not only with each other but with asthenisationof patients to. Cognitive disorders and emotional dyscomfort, experiencing bypatients, may affect adaptation leading to non-constructive coping strategies. Thefound specifics of psychic and cognitive status must be taken into account forelaboration of individualized patient-centered programs of rehabilitation afterCABG
A feature of the microbiota of the colon in patients with different phenotypes of obesity (pilot study)
Purpose: to study the microbiota of the colon in patients with various types of obesity and in healthy people.Materials and methods: 37 people were examined (average age 39.6 ± 4.2 years) for the period 2018 – 2019. Formed 3 clinical groups. I group (n = 11) — healthy people with normal body weight (control), II group (n = 13) — patients with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO), III group (n = 13) — with obesity and metabolic disorders. In all patients, the basic metabolic parameters were studied and a quantitative assessment of the state of colon microbiocenosis was performed.Results: compared to the formal-normative quantitative indicators, the examined fecal groups I, II and III showed unidirectional changes characterized by a decrease (p < 0.05) of Lactobacillus spp., Bifi dobacterium spp., B. thetaiotaomicron and an increase (p < 0.05 ) Enterobacter spp. / Citrobacter spp. Colon microbiota changes in groups II and III are characterized by the appearance of Proteus spp. and Klebsiella spp. (9.1 % and 8.3 % respectively). C. diffi cile (8.3 %) was detected in feces only in group III and the frequency of detection of banal E. coli was increased. Th e amount of F. prausnitzii was reduced (p < 0.05) in group III compared with group 1.Conclusion: the data obtained as a result of a pilot study indicate changes in the microbiota of the colon in people with diff erent phenotypes of obesity

The role of muscle tissue in the pathogenesis of chronic heart failure — the potential of exposure (FORMA study)
Aim. To determine whether the skeletal muscle of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) retains the ability to regenerate and grow; to compare the effectiveness of long aerobic trainings, calculated by an individualized method, and conventionally calculated trainings (VO2peak values), in relation to the severity of heart failure, exercise tolerance (ET), and ergoreflex activity (ERGO).Material and methods. The study included 297 patients with stable III functional class (FC) CHF, receiving optimal therapy. The presence of heart failure was found in all patients at least 6 months before the start of the study (age — 18-65 years, body mass index (BMI) — 19-28 kg/height, m2. Initially, the study performed a cardiorespiratory test (CRT) with an assessment of gas composition, acid-base balance of the blood and ERGO activity. Patients were randomized into 2 groups: experimental (EG) and control (CG). For EG, based on the determination of the lactate threshold (LT), after 1 and 3 months the CRT was repeated and the training walking mode was dynamically recounted according to the new LT level. For CG, the training walking mode was calculated based on the VO2peak values. All patients trained for 6 months. At the end of the training, diagnostic CRT was performed, and the activity of EGO was evaluated. Eleven patients with CHF and 3 healthy donors before the start of the training underwent a biopsy of the gastrocnemius muscle.Results. It was shown that the potential for muscle differentiation of satellite skeletal muscle precursor cells obtained from patients with CHF with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) does not differ in vitro from the potential of satellite cells of healthy donors. After 6 months of training, the severity of CHF decreased to FC II in 75% of EG patients, and among CG patients — in 44%; the main indicators of the stages of compensatory mechanisms activation during physical exertion (VO2LT and VO2peak) in EG increased more than in the CG (10,8±0,4, 18,7±0,7 ml/min/kg and 9,5±0,8, 15,3±0,9 ml/min/kg, with p1<0,01, p2<0,05, p3<0,01, respectively). Conclusion. In vitro, the potential for muscle differentiation, regeneration and growth of satellite skeletal muscle precursor cells obtained from patients with HFrEF does not differ from the potential of satellite cells of healthy donors. Aerobic training in patients with III FC chronic heart failure calculated by definition of LT, relating to safety is not worse than the results calculated by the level of VO2peak. Aerobic training in patients with III FC chronic heart failure calculated by definition of LT, compared with the usual mode of training walking, significantly reduce the activity of ergoreflex, increase ET, reduce the severity of CHF. In patients with III FC CHF, training walking for more than 1,5 hours/day determined by the level of LT, contributes to the development of physiological reverse myocardial remodeling to a greater extent than aerobic training calculated by the conventional method
The BGO-OD experiment at ELSA
Meson photoproduction is a key tool for the experimental investigation of the nucleon excitation spectrum. To disentangle the specific couplings of resonances, in addition to the rather well measured pion and eta photoproduction channels it is mandatory to obtain information on channels involving strange and vector mesons and higher mass pseudoscalar mesons, and the associated multi-particle final states with both charged and neutral particles. In this respect, the new BGO-OD experiment at the ELSA accelerator of the University of Bonn's Physikalisches Institut provides unique instrumentation. We describe the experiment, present its status and the initial program of measurements
Commissioning and initial experimental program of the BGO-OD experiment at ELSA
BGO-OD is a new meson photoproduction experiment at the ELSA facility of Bonn University. It aims at the investigation of non strange and strange baryon excitations, and is especially designed to be able to detect weekly bound meson-baryon type structures. The setup for the BGO-OD experiment is presented, the characteristics of the photon beam and the detector performances are shown and the initial experimental program is discussed
Strangeness Photoproduction at the BGO-OD Experiment
BGO-OD is a newly commissioned experiment to investigate the internal structure of the nucleon, using an energy tagged bremsstrahlung photon beam at the ELSA electron facility.
