Abstract
An overview of Russian and foreign literature data with an analysis of the epidemiology of primary hyperparathyroidism (PGPT) was made. It wasnoted, that previously PHPTwas considered a severe disabling disease with the development of complications such as nephrolithiasis and osteoporosis. However,recently, the data of population-screening studies of blood calcium in several countries in Europe and North America opened the «invisible part of the iceberg» - a large number of mild (olygosymptomatic and asymptomatic) forms of the disease.According to different authors, the prevalence of PHPT is 0.5 to 34 cases per 1000 population, i.e.about 1%, and among people over 55 years – about 2%. NormocalciemicPHPT – a newly detected form nowadays is of particular interest. To date, analysis of blood calcium in Russia is not a routine biochemical test, and patients with PHPToften receive specialized care at the stage of irreversible complications. Therefore, it is necessary to increasethe awareness of physicians about the epidemiology and clinical presentation of the disease, to identify risk groups of PHPTand implement the diagnostic algorithms in the daily doctor’s practice.

Abstract
Рurpose: to demonstrate the ability to assess the state regulation system in patients with severe burns, using the tetrad of Gale and scale of pain. Materials and methods: we assessed the functional regulation of the system of 150 patients. All patients were treated in the clinic of thermal injuries from 2005 to 2012. Patients were divided into three groups, depending on the severity of burn shock. We assessed the execution of the tetrad Gale and the level of pain on a 10-point scale. The tetrad of Gale was scored on a scale from 0 to 5 units. This assessment was performed on admission, one day, two days. Results: meaning of the tetrad of Gale varies depending on the disturbance of consciousness. The correct interpretation allows to evaluate the functioning of the system of the regulation. 34% of patients with burn disease were able to perform elements of the tetrad of Gale. Others have a abnormalities associated with various events of pre-hospital care and the patient’s condition. Pain reaction were assessed in different periods after burn injury. Also pain responses in different degrees of burn shock were evaluated. We have found that the most severe pain from admission decreases to the time elimination of burn shock. Summary: determination dysregulation system allows purposefully to influence the pathogenesis in a particular situation.

Abstract
Purpose: to evaluate the impact of a comprehensive rehabilitation therapy on the results of organ-preserving UF treatment technology being based on the study of adaptation reactions nature and cytokine profile. Materials and methods: the study involved 265 women with uterine fibroids after laparoscopic myomectomy, laparotomic myomectomy and UAE (with and without complex rehabilitation after surgery). Adaptation reactions after different treatment technologies and cytokine profile after UAE (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, IL-4, IFN-γ, Fas-L) were under thorough study. Results: myoma growth relapses during the observation period were distinguished among 12 patients after LSM, 16 – after LTM, 11 – after UAE. Molecular mechanisms of disease recurrence were clarified, especially in the absence of rehabilitation: long-term proinflammatory shift characteristic of an early postoperative period, destructive processes aggravation in the injured myometrial tissue with the increase in the dynamics of anti-apoptotic activity (Fas-L lack), Th1-cell factors depletion and immunosuppression development. Summary: the profile of adaptation reactions is shown to be not only the predictor of disease recurrence but also the criterion of a full-course rehabilitation. Cytokine profile study after UAE contributes to the prediction of treatment technology ineffectiveness.
