BACKGROUND: Chronic heart failure (CHF) is one of the most serious problems in cardiovascular diseases, requiring accurate diagnosis and treatment.The search for new laboratory markers of CHF can improve the accuracy of diagnosis and identify the severity of the patients condition.AIM: Our aim was to study the relationship between the levels of fre

The most common way to increase power and reduce fuel consumption by modern power plants is contact cooling of a gas or air flow by water injection.A promising development of this direction is to use aerothermopressor technologies.The use of heat air, which is compressed by the power plant compressors, accelerates the flow to a speed close to the s

Background: The protease-antiprotease hypothesis proposes that inflammatory cells and oxidative stress in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) produce increased levels of proteolytic enzymes (neutrophil elastase, matrix metalloproteinases [MMP]) which contribute to destruction of parenchyma resulting in progressive decline in forced expirat
