The peculiarities of microstructural analysis as an experimental technique for studying biofluids are demonstrated. The application of the concept of permolecular system organization to the analysis of pro tein system structures is considered. It is shown that systematic studies of biological fluids within the frames of the selected unified approach stimulate the development of the methods of microstructural analysis of biof luids and facilitates better understanding of the observed biostructural effects.
We elaborate hardware and software system that implements the principle of diagnosis based on the standard procedure of pattern preparation including digital recognition of image and its computer analysis based on specially developed algorithms by comparing with the expert descriptors and extensive database of dry pattern samples obtained from clinical treatments which include more than 1500 samples to high selective and accuracy recognition of pathologies, for recognition of wide range of pathologies, in particular, the endogenous intoxication.
The review presents data about the role of the foot in maintaining of the human postural balance. The foot is considered as a receptive field and an organ-effector of the postural system. Data of the etiology, pathogenesis and methods of flatfoot correction are presented.
Introduction. An osteopathic examination determines the rate, the amplitude and the strength of the main rhythms (cardiac, respiratory and cranial). However, there are relatively few studies in the available literature dedicated to the influence of osteopathic correction (OC) on the characteristics of these rhythms.Goal of research — to study the influence of OC on the rate characteristics of various rhythms of the human body.Materials and methods. 88 adult osteopathic patients aged from 18 to 81 years were examined, among them 30 men and 58 women. All patients received general osteopathic examination. The rate of the cranial rhythm (RCR), respiratory rate (RR) heart rate (HR), the mobility of the nervous processes (MNP) and the connective tissue mobility (CTM) were assessed before and after the OC session.Results. Since age varied greatly in the examined group, a correlation analysis of age-related changes of the assessed rhythms was carried out. Only the CTM correlated with age (r=–0,28; p<0,05) in a statistically significant way. The rank dispersion analysis of Kruskal–Wallis also showed statistically significant difference in this indicator in different age groups (p=0,043). With the increase of years, the CTM decreases gradually. After the OC, the CTM, increased in a statistically significant way (p<0,0001). The RCR varied from 5 to 12 cycles/min in the examined group, which corresponded to the norm. After the OC, the RCR has increased in a statistically significant way (p<0,0001), the MNP has also increased (p<0,0001). The initial heart rate in the subjects varied from 56 to 94 beats/min, and in 15 % it exceeded the norm. After the OC the heart rate corresponded to the norm in all patients. The heart rate and the respiratory rate significantly decreased after the OC (р<0,0001).Conclusion. The described biorhythm changes after the OC session may be indicative of the improvement of the nervous regulation, of the normalization of the autonomic balance, of the improvement of the biomechanical properties of body tissues and of the increase of their mobility. The assessed parameters can be measured quickly without any additional equipment and can be used in order to study the results of the OC.
Introduction. The cranial rhythm is represented by the rhythmic movement of the skull bones associated with the cyclic changes in production and pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid. The existing methods of instrumental recording of the quantitative characteristics of the cranial rhythm are either invasive, either contact, or very complex. Objective. To evaluate the EHF-bioradiolocation method as a method of recording of the quantitative characte-ristics of the cranial rhythm. Methods. Twenty volunteers were examined. At the first stage of the study, we determined the optimal conditions for registering the cranial rhythm with the help of the EHF bioradiolocator. At the second stage, the volonteers’ cranial rhythm was registered with the use of an EHF-bioradiolator. Then the volonteers were subjected to osteopathic diagnostics and correction. After that the cranial rhythm was recorded again. Results. For the first time we registered the cranial rhythm with the help of the EHF-bioradiolocator. In most cases, the frequency of the cranial rhythm recorded by the device coincided with the frequency determined by an osteopath. After the osteopathic treatment, the total amplitude of the oscillations increased in all the patients. Assessment of changes in the frequency of the cranial rhythm was difficult due to the presence of several harmonics. Conclusion. With the help of the EHF-bioradiolocator, it is possible to register the quantitative characteristics of the cranial rhythm - frequency and amplitude. The methodology we developed is safe and relatively simple. It is non-contact, and can be used both for diagnostic purposes, and for monitoring and evaluation of the treatment results.
The article describes the main objects of osteopathic influence in the body and the caused effects. The effects of osteopathic correction can occur at different times after the session and can be recorded using various clinical and instrumental methods. This should be taken into account when prescribing a re-examination of the patient to confirm the treatment results. A brief review of randomized controlled trials proving the efficacy of osteopathic correction in various diseases is also presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
