Anthropometric indices and their relationship with poor prognosis in patients with coronary artery disease and obesity by A. V. Svarovskaya, O. A. Trubacheva, S. V. Pereverzev, A. A. Garganeeva

“…During the follow-up period, adverse cardiovascular events in the 1st group of patients were found in 37 (34,5%) patients, while in the 2nd group, the composite endpoint was revealed in 12,3% of patients. In order to develop a model for predicting the risk of an unfavorable CAD course in obese patients, we performed a logistic regression analysis, which showed that the following were the most significant predictors of unfavorable cardiovascular outcomes: TG/glucose index and BSI.Conclusion. …”

EXPERIMENTAL METHODS OF EXPLORING MULTIMODAL DISCOURSE: CROSSMODAL ALIGNMENT by Mariya I. Kiose, Vadim O. Potekhin, Oleg D. Zubkov

“…The study features the results of multimodal experiments with the participants engaged in three discourse tasks: 1) receptive, which presumes obtaining information from text and image stimuli; semiotic alignment patterns are identified indirectly via participants’ gaze response; 2) productive, in which the participants communicate the information in monological format; communicative alignment patterns are identified directly via their speech and gesture; 3) receptive-productive, which presupposes the participants perceive information visually and audially; alignment patterns are identified directly via participants’ gaze behavior contingent on the stimuli areas of interest and indirectly via their speech response. Data analysis allows to determine and scale the degree of crossmodal alignment to discourse tasks, which helps identify the input of each mode to solving these tasks. …”

IL-6 Signaling Link between Inflammatory Tumor Microenvironment and Prostatic Tumorigenesis by Cosmin-Victor Ene, Ilinca Nicolae, Bogdan Geavlete, Petrisor Geavlete, Corina Daniela Ene

“…IL-6 ability to induce pro- and anti-inflammatory responses by three mechanisms of signal transduction (classical signaling, transsignaling, cluster signaling), to interact with a diversity of target cells, to induce endocrine effects in an autocrine/paracrine manner, and the identification of an IL-6 endogenous antagonist that blocks the transmission of IL-6 mediated intracellular signals could justify current theories on the protective effects of this cytokine or by alleviating inflammatory reactions or by exacerbating tissue damage. This analysis presents recent data about the role of the inflammatory process as a determining factor in the development of benign and malign prostate tumors. …”
