The effect of pressurized intraperitoneal aerosolized chemotherapy on the surgical treatment outcomes of ovarian cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis by A. S. Dzasochov, A. A. Kostin, V. L. Astashov, A. B. Turiev, A. D. Uskov, M. A. Andreeva

“…The development of new local treatment methods of peritoneal carcinomatosis in ovarian cancer is an urgent task due to the fact that in most cases complete surgical cytoreduction is technically impossible, and systemic cytostatic therapy does not provide a stable therapeutic effect. The pressurized intraperitoneal aerosolized chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a local method of treating peritoneal carcinomatosis in ovarian cancer, which allows for uniform distribution of medicinal aerosol over the peritoneum and is used together with standard combined treatment in order to improve its outcomes.Purpose of the study. …”

Treatment of autonomous intestinal neuropathy in critical care by prucalopride and multistrain probiotic by A. L. Kovaleva, A. I. Ulyanin, O. Yu. Kiselyova, Ye. A. Poluektova, O. S. Shifrin, A. S. Tertychny, V. T. Ivashkin

“…Basic mechanisms for development of autonomous intestinal neuropathy are discussed: suppression of smooth muscular contractility by C. difficile toxins A and B (in the first of presented cases) and combined autoimmune neuronal damage by immune cells due to expression of proteins by neoplastic cells (in the second case). Therapeutic approaches including prescription of prokinetic drug prucalopride and multistrain probiotic containing bifido-and lactobacilli are presented (Bifidobacterium bifidum, B. longum, B. infantis, Lactobacillus rhamnosus). …”
