Osteoporosis in childhood, adolescence and youth: pathogenetic mechanisms and basic concepts of prevention

Novosibirsk, 2009

280 p.: ill.

ISBN 978-5-91475-004-3

The monograph discusses osteoporosis as one of the most urgent problems of medicine having high socio-economic importance.  There is no doubt that the origins of osteoporosis in adults lie in childhood. It was found that osteoporosis often develops when the bone mass does not reach the genetically determined value by the end of the puberty period. A stable trend towards an increase in the incidence of osteoporosis among children in Russia indicates a lack of efficacy of existing prevention measures, an underestimation of risk factors and criteria for diagnosing this disease. Knowledge of the factors influencing the formation of bone mineral density in different age periods is necessary for the development of  basic concepts of primary prevention of osteoporosis and its complications. The book substantiates the need to prevent the reduction of the bone tissue mineral density at the population level.

The book is addressed to orthopedic traumatologists, pediatricians, endocrinologists, gynecologists and other specialists dealing with the problem of osteoporosis.

Disorders of cerebral circulation in the acute period of craniocerebral trauma: dopplerographic examination

Novosibirsk, 2008

152 p.: ill.

ISBN 978-5-91475-009-8

Diagnosis, and, consequently, treatment of craniocerebral trauma, considered today as a problem of adequate cerebral perfusion and maintenance of cerebrovascular autoregulation, is not only a medical, but also a pressing social task. The monograph summarizes the results of authors' many years' research on the pathogenetic role of vascular disorders in the acute period of craniocerebral trauma, provides the most informative techniques for ultrasound diagnostics, outlines both commonly occurring Dopplerographic patterns of traumatic cerebrovascular deviations and the results of clinical trials obtained by the authors. The extremely important relationship between cerebrovascular disorders, dynamics of intracranial hypertension, and dislocation syndrome was traced, which enabled the authors to propose a very relevant and promising prognostic test. The book specifies the timing, dynamics and conditions for the development of angiospasm, hyperperfusion and obstructed perfusion, which are of great practical value in the intensive care of severe craniocerebral trauma. Especially significant are studying  disorders and detecting   reserves of cerebral blood flow autoregulation depending on the severity and localization of the brain damage and the phase of clinical compensation. Correlation of the investigated Doppler parameters with clinical signs of craniocerebral trauma  is scientifically significant and practically valuable becouse it allows to make a pathogenetically purposeful protocol of treatment and to predict the course and outcome of the disease. The monograph addresses the current problems of modern neurosurgery and pathophysiology and can be recommended for neurosurgeons, neurologists,reanimatologists and physicians of functional diagnostics.
