In the modern world, the incidence of chronic obstructive bronchitis in adolescents remains quite high. Due to the high incidence of chronic obstructive bronchitis in adolescents, there remains an urgent need for medical science to improve the rehabilitation of this contingent of patients. The aim of the work is to assess the rehabilitation possibilities of yoga exercises in adolescents suffering from chronic obstructive bronchitis. The study was carried out on 46 adolescents aged 14-15 years old, suffering from uncomplicated chronic obstructive bronchitis for a long time in a state of unstable remission. The control group included 22 clinically healthy adolescents of the same age. For those surveyed with chronic bronchitis, there was a decrease in lung volumes and the size of the lumen of the bronchi of any diameter. This naturally reduced the functional capabilities of the respiratory system in adolescents. Regular yogic exercises provided in adolescents with bronchitis a pronounced positive dynamics of their well-being and adaptive capabilities of the respiratory system. Systematic yoga exercises optimized the functional capabilities of the entire respiratory system in adolescents with chronic obstructive bronchitis and significantly increased their resistance to hypoxia.

Aim. To evaluate changes in the cardiointervalogram (CIG) in the test with external peripheral vascular occlusion in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and in individuals without diseases of the respiratory system. Materials and Methods. The study included 105 men, of them 64 patients with COPD (age 64.988.67) and 41 volunteers without diseases of the respiratory system (age 61.689.21). The autonomic status was examined and alterations in CIG in the test with occlusion were evaluated on Varicard hardware and software complex (OOO Ramena, Russia). Results. The obtained data showed the autonomic imbalance with predomination of the activity of sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) in patients with COPD as compared to the control group (p0.05). A study of ergoreflex by analysis of changes in CIG showed reduction of the activity of sympathetic division of the ANS in the test with external peripheral vascular occlusion in individuals without diseases of the respiratory system. In patients with COPD, changes in CIG in the test were less expressed and not always achieved statistically significant level (p0.05). Conclusions. Differences in the results of the test with external peripheral vascular occlusion in patients with COPD and volunteers without diseases of the respiratory system are attributed to hyperactivation of ergofeflex in patents with COPD.

Inroduction. The assessment of the respiratory system is of particular importance in the context of increasing impact of anthropogenic factors on human health. Aim. Evaluation the response of the lung function indices to the effects of micro-suspensions and toxic metals in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), using regression models. Materials and methods. The study involved 60 patients with stable mild-to-moderate COPD and 30 healthy people (the control group). The analysis of lung function was carried out by spirometry and body plethysmography. Arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2 ) was measured by pulse oximetry. Exhaled CO2 concentration and blood carboxyhemoglobin (COHb%) concentration were assessed using a portable analyzer MicroCO Meter. The pollution of the city atmosphere was assessed by aerosol suspensions of solid particles in the areas of residence of the examined patients. Fractional composition of suspended particles (0-1, 1-10, 10-50, 50-100, 100-400, 400-700,> 700 μm; %) were analyzed in the areas of residence of the examined patients. Toxic metal (Pb, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn; μg/L) levels in the air samples were determined. The statistical module "Multiple regression" was used for assessing the response of functional parameters of the respiratory system. Results. The analysis of one-factor and multi-factor regression models made it possible to identify both trigger factors of dust and technogenic air pollution and the synergistic effect of the influence of dominant factors. It has been shown that multifactorial reactions to technogenic impact manifest as altered blood oxygen saturation and carboxyhemoglobin level and thereby contribute to the development of respiratory failure. Conclusion. Patients with COPD exhibited increased bronchial resistance to the effect of the trigger factor (Pb – 1 hazard class) associated with high motorization of the city. The response of pulmonary gas exchange (SaO2 ) to Pb in the control group indicates prolonged exposure to toxic metals can cause developing respiratory failure even in the healthy population of the city.

Background:Effective therapy of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is impossible without the active and competent participation of the patient in this process, which requires educational programs based on the real needs of the patientObjectives:The purpose of the study was to develop an educational program for patients with RA and evaluate its effectivenessMethods:The study included 65 patients with RA. 35 patients of the main group were trained in the educational program. Of these, 30 patients made up the control group. The educational program consisted of 4 daily classes of 90 minutes. Initially and after 6 months, the indices DAS28, HAQ, RAPID3 were determined using the MDHAQ questionnaireResults:After 6 months after training in the main group, the DAS28 index decreased by 1.28 ± 0.28 points (p <0.05), HAQ - by 0.65 ± 0.39 (55.2%) (p <0.01), RAPID3 - by 4.87 ± 0.82 (45.6%) (p <0.01), anxiety level - by 0.78 ± 0.28 (52.1%) (p < 0.05), depression - by 0.76 ± 0.54 (43.4%) (p <0.05), fatigue - by 2.96 ± 1.21 points (42.3%) (p <0, 05), sleep improved by 0.85 ± 0.34 (52.3%) (p <0.05). 6 months after participating in the educational program, a good response to treatment according to DAS28 according to EULAR criteria was significantly more often recorded (54.5% versus 29.0% in the control group (p <0.05), and the number of patients noted improvement well-being increased by 9 times (p <0.01). The dynamics in the control group was less pronounced, which determined statistically significant differences between groups for most indicators (p <0.05)Conclusion:The educational program improves functional capabilities, psychological status, helps control the activity of the disease and improves the quality of life of patients with RAReferences:[1]Chen SY Wang.

Aim. To study the relationship between the indicators of dynamic capnography and pulse oximetry with the indicators of the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Materials and methods. 67 patients of both sexes were examined: 45 patients with COPD (age 60.02.74 years) and 25 patients of the control group (age 47.603.46 years). The study of the functional capabilities of the patients respiratory system was carried out before, during and after the 6MWT on the equipment LifeSense LS1-9R capnograph-pulse oximeter (MedAir AB). Results and discussion. In the comparison group, the parameters of dyspnea at rest were higher than the control group (p0.05), the spirometry indices were significantly lower (p0.05). Shortness of breath as a reason for stopping/slowing down the pace during the 6MWT was noted by patients of both groups (p0.05). When analyzing the PETCO2 trend graphs, periodic breathing (PВ) was revealed. In the group of patients with COPD, signs of PВ in the analysis of the PETCO2 trend were found in 80.95% (p0.05). Regression analysis of Cox proportional risks of mortality in patients with COPD revealed the prognostic value of the following parameters of a comprehensive assessment of the patient: body mass index (BMI), BODE index, dyspnea index on the mMRS scale, Borg, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), index Tiffno, signs of PВ, distance 6MWT, signs of PВ and desaturation during 6MWT. At the same time, the total contribution of these indicators to the risk of a lethal event was assessed (p=0.003). Conclusion. When analyzing the correlation dependence, it was revealed that the presence of PВ was a prognostically unfavorable sign in patients with COPD. Predictors of an unfavorable course of COPD were BMI (23.0 kg/m2), BODE index, dyspnea indices on the mMRS, Borg, FEV1 scales, Tiffnos index, signs of PH, distance 6MST, signs of PD and desaturation during 6MST (reliability of the model coefficient p=0.003) in terms of forecast.

Introduction. The task of preserving the psychological health of children and adolescents is recognized as most important in the complex conditions of the modern world. Interdisciplinary research addresses the psychological aspects of mental health. For psychological health, understanding the highest level of mental health is an integral characteristic of the well-being of the individual, and the prerequisites for the development of personal maturity. Among the adverse factors in relation to mental and psychological health is what is known as somatic suffering, which occurs in orthopedic diseases. Cognitive, emotional, and behavioral responses to orthopedic disease, eliminating maladaptive manifestations in difficult life situations due to the disease, can be important indicators of psychological health of adolescents. Aim. We identify specific indicators of psychological health in adolescents with various orthopedic diseases. Materials and methods. The study involved 90 adolescents: 60 aged 1217 years with orthopedic diseases (30 with articular juvenile chronic arthritis and 30 with long-term consequences of mechanical trauma of the upper and lower limbs, resulting from an accident due to negligence) and a control group consisting of healthy adolescents of the same age. The characteristics of the self-esteem personality component (satisfaction with various aspects of their own lives) in adolescents with orthopedic diseases and their healthy peers were considered traditional indicators of psychological health. We used PiersHarris scale modified by V.I. Gordeev Y.S. Aleksandrovich and test of attitude to disease. Results. In adolescents with various forms of orthopedic disorders, the formation of stable variants of the attitude to the disease with a violation of adaptation of inter- and intrapsychic types is accompanied by the experience of discomfort, difficulties of self-regulation during treatment, and signs of a negative attitude. Formation of stable variants of emotional, cognitive, and behavioral responses without expressed disorders of mental and social adaptation is accompanied by a feeling of comfort and self-satisfaction. The prevailing reaction at harmonic, allopathic, and anosognosic types of mogutt act as a sanogenic effect. Emerging resistant variants of the attitude to the disease with a violation of adaptation of inter- and intrapsychic types can represent risk factors for breach of psychological health in adolescents with orthopedic diseases.

Investigation of timing organization of lung function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease of different severity is an important problem in the diagnosis of desynchronosis. We aimed to study circadian rhythms of lung function in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. As a result, not only quantitative, but also qualitative disorders of lung function were revealed. There were registered three types of biorhythms: day, evening and morning. Minimum values of lung function parameters were recorded in patients with pathological morning type of biorhythms. In patients with the severe course against the background of lower medians of spirographic indices, statistically significant differences were also revealed in patients with day and evening types of biorhythms, which indicated a decrease in the adaptive capabilities of the respiratory system.

Introduction. Th e high level of professional and production-related pathology among workers of the coal industry, as well as the frequent development of their combined pathology with an unfavorable prognosis determine the relevance of studying the prevalence of somatic pathology in miners with occupational diseases of the respiratory system.The aim of the study was to explore the prevalence of internal organs pathology in coal industry workers with occupational lung diseases (anthracosilicosis, chronic dust bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).Materials and methods. 788 store miners and shaft  sinkers with previously diagnosed occupational respiratory diseases (anthracosilicosis, chronic dust bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and 161 miners, working for a long time in harmful labour conditions and having no occupational pathology (the control group) were examined.Results. It was revealed that the workers of the coal industry with occupational diseases of the respiratory system pathology of internal organs occurs more often than the workers of the control group, including: diseases of the cardiovascular system (hypertension, angina pectoris I and II functional classes), diseases of the digestive system (nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and chronic pancreatitis), kidney disease (chronic pyelonephritis), as well as a combination of several somatic diseases.Conclusions. In miners with occupational diseases of the respiratory system more oft en than in the control group, there is a pathology of the internal organs: diseases of the cardiovascular system, digestive organs, kidneys, as well as a combination of several somatic diseases. Th e data obtained should be considered during periodic medical examinations and medical examinations for the development of timely therapeutic and preventive and rehabilitation measures.

Context: The current world crisis, COVID-19 disease, is different from any other world’s previous crises since it has killed thousands of people all around the world and made the medical science desperate. During the COVID-19 outbreak, spirituality can be one of the proper methods to create mental relaxation. Evidence Acquisition: The present study is a review of the literature from 1978 to 2019. The search was done in electronic databases and reputable websites including PubMed, Medline, Springer, Elsevier, Science Direct, Scopus, and SID for both English and non-English language articles using the following keywords: “spirituality”, “prayer”, “and “some religious advice were assessed in times of crisis”. A total of 11 articles were selected for review. Results: The results indicated that spirituality could aid people to have mental relaxation in times of crisis and dangerous diseases. Some of the religious solutions proposed against the COVID-19 prevalence could be helpful. Conclusions: Since a long time ago, religions have attempted to provide behavioral pieces of advice in times of crisis to help humankind spiritually. In the present study, some of these pieces of advice are mentioned. It has been suggested that medical staff in hospitals pay more attention to the spiritual and religious beliefs of COVID-19-infected patients to improve their calmness and well-being.
