Abstract. The thermal effect from the foundation into the permafrost was researched by the numerical modeling in the software "FEMmodels". The pile foundation and slab structures were modeled with and without the use of season-al-cooling devices. The research of the foundation influence on the permafrost was performed in the full-year cycle of air temper action to the ground.
The aim of the present systematic literature review is to summarize data on the role of TLRs in maintaining homeostasis of the female genitals, in maintaining the physiological development of pregnancy, provision of anti-infective resistance in pregnant women with intrauterine infection. The review substantiates the importance of TLRs of female genitals as a necessary and determining factor in the reaction to various changes in the environment, and also responsible for changes in metabolic, structural, or energy, in the maintenance of anti-infective resistance and homeostasis. As universal regulators of vital activity of organism TLRs in conjunction with other receptors of innate immunity provide maintaining the general reactivity and anti-infective resistance at the physiological level. In physiologically developing pregnancy in a background of immunosuppression in response to pregnancy TLRs during contact with infectious and non-infectious pathogens stimulate the production of nonspecific adaptive immunity factors (defensins, cathelicidins, histatines, etc.), which together with the non-specific innate factors lysozyme, complement, properdin, etc. support antiinfective resistance of the female genitals at a high level at the beginning of the infectious process. Possible violations of the development of pregnancy may be accompanied by changes in the response of TLRs to infectious and non-infectious factors until hyper-reaction, excessive inflammation or apoptosis, which requires adequate management of pregnancy. Was established the significance of the influence of pathogens of infectious and noninfectious origin in intrauterine infection indirectly through TLRs in the homeostasis of the organism, on the formation of breaches in anti-infective resistance at the organism and community level the identification of new pathophysiological and immunological pathogenetic mechanisms of development of pathological processes. IUI is a penetration of microorganisms into the tissues of fetus and it’s infection. The inhibition of the functional activity of TLRs is accompanied by the direct effect of the pathogen on the tissues, and during hyper-reaction of TLRs to pathogens revealed a pronounced inflammatory response in the fetus. The level of expression of TLRs correlates directly with the severity of the process that can be considered as early markers of infection. Depending on the nature of the pathogen an increased expression of one or the other TLRs is observed. Explained the lack of symptoms, the possibility of atypical manifestations, the asymptomatic course of infection.
The aim - screening of anxiety, depression and stress in patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMD) and medical workers at the beginning of the COVID-19.Material and methods. 150 patients (men/women: 39 (26.0%)/111 (74.0%); mean age - 43.2±16.1 years) with RMD, hospitalized at the V.A. Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology (Moscow) from July to November 2020, and 32 relatively healthy medical workers (men/women: 3 (9.38%)/29 (90.6%), mean age - 40.7±14.6 years) as a control group was included in the study. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale - 21 Items (DASS-21) were used for anxiety, depression and stress screening. Results. Frequency of anxiety-depressive spectrum disorders in patients with RMD was 48% (according to DASS-21) and 27.2% (according to HADS), which did not differ significantly from the control group - 46.9% and 18.8% respectively. According to the DASS-21, patients with systemic sclerosis were significantly more likely to have a combination of clinically significant anxiety, depression and stress compared to healthy control (6 (46.2%) vs 4 (12.5%); p=0.02) and patients with spondyloarthritis (6 (46.2% vs 5 (16.1%); p=0.045). The severity of anxiety was significantly higher among patients with RMD - systemic lupus erythematosus, primary Sjogren's syndrome and systemic sclerosis, according to both scales. The severity of depression, anxiety and stress was significantly higher in women with RMD, rural residents and patients taking moderate and high doses of glucocorticoids. The pathological stress level was experienced by younger medical workers (27.5±5.45 vs 45.8±13.8 years; p=0.001). The transferred coronavirus infection did not lead to an increase in the severity of depression, anxiety and stress tension among patients, however, among medical workers, the frequency of clinically significant anxiety (4 (57.1%) vs 6 (24%)) and stress (3 (42.8%) vs 5 (20%)) was 2.2-2.9 times higher in those who have been ill. When compared with the results of the similar screening by HADS in 2012, the proportion of RМD-patients with clinically significant anxiety and depression over the past 8 years and in connection with the pandemic COVID-19 has not significantly changed.Conclusion. A new threat to health, isolation and uncertainty at the beginning of the COVID-19 were an additional stressful factor for patients with RМD, however, given the high background prevalence of low-severity chronic depression with frequent onset before RМD, the factor of the COVID-19 is not a key factor in provoking mental disorders.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
