“…Compared to the fibrous ring tissue adjacent to the HIZ and normal controls, the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and macrophages (CD68) were considerably increased in the fibrous rings surrounding the HIZ 3 . Furthermore, these lesions were considered to be a good predictor for ethanol gel chemonucleolysis, which is considered a promising treatment for degenerative disc disease 4 . Age, obesity, and symptoms of low back pain (LBP) were found to be correlated with the presence of HIZ on the lumbar MRI 5 .In contrast, some authors assert that HIZ lesions have limited diagnostic utility in patients with LBP 6,7 .…”

Purpose: This population-based cross-sectional study examined the prevalence of high-intensity zones (HIZ) in the lumbar spine and their relationship to age, gender, disc degeneration, disc displacement (bulging or herniation), and facet joint degeneration. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on MRI studies of 800 patients (4000 discs) who were admitted to the hospital with subacute-chronic low back pain (LBP) and presented with axial pain (musculogenic-discogenic-mechanic) at outpatient clinics. The frequency of speed was determined by considering a total of seven age categories in decades. Correlation analyses were performed between HIZ and other variables. Results: The prevalence of HIZ was 30%, highest in the >70 years age group and lowest in the

Relevance. The relevance of the study lies in the fact that the role of foreign scientific contacts and professors' trips from 1950 to 1991 in the context of bibliographic sources underlines the tasks of the teaching character of the Riga Medical Institute. Since one of the least studied periods in the history of Latvian medicine with its ideological specificity is the period from 1950 to 1991, only individual studies can be found, including the history of the Riga Medical Institute and the Latvian State University in the monograph “From University to University”. The 60-year presence of Latvia in the USSR is often interpreted and idealized in two ways. Purpose. The purpose of the research is to consider the analysis of foreign scientific relations and business trips of the faculty of the Riga Medical Institute in the period from 1950 to 1991 in terms of bibliographic sources. For trips of scientific and teaching staff of the Riga Medical Institute outside the USSR, in the period from the establishment of the RSU until the restoration of the independence of the Republic of Latvia in 1991, is characterized by connection with the political situation of the USSR system in international scientific relations. Methodology. The modern world has great opportunities for international cooperation and freedom of movement. Results. Students and Western scientists lack an understanding of the complex possibilities of scientific and academic staff of the Riga Medical Institute for scientific communication with researchers outside the USSR. Therefore, this topic has already attracted the attention of other European researchers. Conclusions. Practical significance lies in the updating of problems of foreign scientific relations and business trips of professors and teachers of the Riga Medical Institute in the period from 1950 to 1991 on the basis of new primary sources.

Methodology. To establish all peculiarities and general principles of the investigated question in the article various methodological tools were used, namely functional and system approaches, as well as method of analysis and synthesis, pedagogical observation, comparison. Results. Thus, the main results in the article are both theoretical principles, which are the basis of the process of creative development of children, and practical aspects that reflect their external expression. Accordingly, at the beginning of the work, the essence of the basic concepts used in the article was disclosed. The main component of the research is still the determination of the level of influence of art on the creative development of children, as well as the factor and conditions that are reflected in this process.
