PSYCHOMETRIC VISUAL ANALOGUE SCALE IN ASSESSMENT OF THE STABLE ANGINA SEVERITY AND EFFICACY OF ANTIANGINAL THERAPY by E. V. Solyanik

“…After 3 months the integral QL index increased from 3.5±0.2 to 7.4±0.25 points in the 1st group and from 3.3±0.2 to 6.1±0.22 in the 2nd group. The functional dependence of the integral QL index, determined with VAS, and angina pectoris functional class (FC) was found in the linear regression model for the Fisher test. …”

Diagnostics of optic disk drusen in children by A. G. Shchuko, D. U. Samsonov, S. I. Zhukova, T. N. Iureva

“…Drop of electrophysiological parameters (neuroglial index and amplitude oscillatory potentials) and increased light sensitivity of the retina of depression (from the expansion of the «blind spot» to a generalized depression with lots of scotomas) depend on the volume, the depth of druses and their proximity to the vascular bundles, characterizing the degree of compression glial tissue of the optic disc and hemodynamic disturbances.Conclusions: The proposed algorithm of examination of patients with optic disc drusen can not only establish the fact of presence of drusen, but also to determine their exact location, assess the severity of morphological and functional changes, determining the prognosis of the disease.…”
