The bioapatite crystals have a multilayer hydrate shell, which contains impurity ions such as magnesium, sodium, potassium and it is not clear the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of noapatite entourage. The major component noapatite environment in bone is water and we studied the surface of nanocrystals from trabecular bone in healthy rats and during the water deficiency.In experiment we use adult laboratory rats (8 months age), remove the c...

Introduction: The evidence for the effectiveness of early rehabilitation of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is scanty. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficiency of rehabilitation program for patients with early RA.Methods: 34 study group patients with early RA underwent 6-month rehabilitation (hospital stage: 15-min local air cryotherapy (−;60 °C, Criojet Air C600) for hand, knee or ankle joints, 45-min therapeutic exercises u...

Introduction: The patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are less physically active than the general population. The aim of the study is to assess the effect of two exercise programs on the functional status of patients with early RA.Methods: Fifteen patients with early RA underwent ten high-intensity dynamic exercises using Enraf-Nonius gym for 45–60 min, including aerobic part (En-Cardio) and 18–20 muscle-strengthening exercises (En-Dynamic ...

Introduction: Physical exercises improve muscle strength, aerobic capacity and bone density in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, some physicians fear to recommend the intensive exercises. The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of two 6-month exercise programs in patients with early RA.Methods: Fifty-one patients with early RA were randomized into 3 groups. At hospital stage 15 patients underwent ten high-intensity dynamic exercis...

Objectives: The purpose of our study was to evaluate the bone mineral accrual in children with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) treated by pamidronate (PAM).Methods: In retrospective study 43 children with different types of OI were included: 17 boys (39.5%) and 26 girls (60.5%). According to clinical OI, patients were: OI I type -13 (30.2%), OI III type – 24 (55.9%) OI IV type – 4 (9.3%), OI V type 1 (2.3%) and Bruck syndrome 1 (2.3%). The standar...

Objectives: Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is a heterogenic group of immune-mediated inflammatory bone diseases with unclear pathogenesis. Only a few genes associated with this condition have identified. The aim of the study was to evaluate the spectrum of mutations in genes associated with primary immunodeficiency syndromes (PIDs) and autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) in the cohort of patients with early-onset CNO from North Caucasus (Dagestan and Chechnya) and asse...

Introduction: Paget’s bone disease (PBD) is the second most prevalent metabolic bone disease. Most patients present with pain or fracture but many remain asymptomatic. Evidence suggests a significant reduction both in its prevalence and clinical severity. Recent papers described differences in clinical course and therapeutic options in the last 10–15 years.Objective: To characterize PBD differences between patients having been diagnosed before ...
