Aim of the studyAim of the study is to evaluate real-world efficacy of the ombitasvir/ paritaprevir/ ritonavir + dasabuvir ± ribavirin for treatment of chronic hepatitis C 1 genotype.Material and methodsThe study included 27 patients according to inclusion criteria. Main laboratory studies were performed in all patients at the baseline and during the treatment.ResultsEfficacy of the antiviral therapy was assessed by measuring the SVR12 and the SVR24 along with measuring of viral load during the treatment. The SVR12 and SVR24 rate was 100% (27/27).DiscussionThe results of the treatment were comparable to the results of pivotal, large-scale, randomized clinical trials. There were no serious adverse events during the treatment.
Введение. Развитие синдрома портальной гипертензии у пациентов с ВГС ассоциированным циррозом печени-ключевой момент естественного течения заболевания. Несмотря на приемлемые диагностические характеристики эластографии сдвиговой волны (shear wave elastography) в отношении диагностики цирроза печени, ее роль в диагностике портальной гипертензии требует дальнейшего уточнения. Цель исследования-разработать и оценить модель прогнозирования риска портальной гипертензии у пациентов с циррозом (ВГС) печени. Материалы и методы. В исследование были включены 388 пациентов. Оценка риска портальной гипертензии осуществлялась на основании моделей логистической регрессии. Для моделей рассчитывались отношения шансов (ОШ) и их 95% доверительные интервалы. Внешняя валидация моделей осуществлялась на выборке тестирования.
Представлено методичні підходи до визначення потенційно конфліктних ситуацій під час польотів повітряних суден. Проаналізовано системи попередження зіткнень повітряних суден військової та цивільної авіації провідних країн світу. Сформовано напрямки удосконалення методу попередження зіткнення літальних апаратів у повітрі, які полягають у застосуванні моделей нечіткої логіки, бази знань, яка будується у вигляді сукупності нечітких продукційних правил. Розроблено метод оцінки координації повітряних суден при небезпечному зближенні, який враховує особливості процесу вирішення завдання його попередження. Побудовано ієрархічну нечітку продукційну модель оцінки координації повітряних суден при небезпечному зближенні.
The article presents the results of our own studies of clinical, anamnestic and laboratory parameters in patients with severe COVID-19. The aim of the study was to identify possible clinical and laboratory predictors of an unfavorable out-come of a severe course of Covid-19 in patients with diabetes mellitus and hy-perglycemia. A retrospective analysis of data from primary medical records of 320 patients was performed. All patients received medical care in the intensive care unit of the infectious hospital in Minsk from June 2020 to March 2022. Based on the results of the assessment of glycemic parameters, all patients were divided into the following groups: 224 people with hospital hyperglycemia (HH), 51 patients with a history of diabetes mellitus (DM) and/or newly diagnosed and 45 people without glycemic disorders. Covid-19 infection confirmed by a positive PCR or antigen test from respiratory swabs. Patients with HH and DM had high-er levels of ESR, procalcitonin, CRP, LDH, neutrophils, more pronounced lym-phopenia, which indicated a more pronounced inflammatory process. The level of D-dimers was assessed as a biomarker of the coagulopathy process, it was al-so higher in the groups of patients with DM and HH. According to the results of the study, 70 % of patients with severe COVID-19 had newly diagnosed hyper-glycemia, and from day 4, patients with an unfavorable outcome showed a ten-dency to persistent hyperglycemia, which potentially indicates its role as a prog-nostic parameter.
Aim of the studyTo evaluate the role of potential genetic predictors –308G/A TNF-α and –403G/A CCL5 in treatment for HCV 1 genotype.Material and methodsTreatment results of 130 patients with chronic hepatitis C 1 genotype according to different genotypes of IL28B, CCL5, and TNF-α were analysed using multiple logistic regression.ResultsIL28B genotypes CC/CT/TT were found in 27 (20.8%), 74 (56.9%), and 29 (22.3%) patients. Genotypes GG/GA/AA of –308G/A TNF-α were revealed in 98 (75.4%), 30 (23.1%), and 2 (1.5%) patients. Genotypes GG/GA/AA of –403G/A CCL5 were revealed in 86 (66.2%), 39 (30%), and 5 (3.8%) patients, respectively. The previously known effect of IL28B was observed. IL28B TT genotype decreased end of treatment response (EOTR) rates by a factor of 29.0 (95% CI: 6.4-183). The combination of CCL5 GG and IL28B CT genotypes increased the risk of failure to achieve EOTR by a factor of 28.5 (95% CI: 7.2-160). Genotypes GA and AA of TNF-α (–308) G/A SNP increased the risk of relapse in patients who achieved EOTR (OR = 9.4; 95% CI: 2.4-48).ConclusionsPractitioners may benefit from using these predictors when considering indications for the antiviral therapy and deciding on the treatment regimen.
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.
